Brunswick, GA–For the second consecutive year, King & Prince® Seafood wins an Excellence in Innovation award: Sushi Bob™ placed third out of 38 foodservice new product entries in the Prepared Foods – American Egg Board co-sponsored contest.
Sushi Bob™ is an innovative line of sushi kits targeted toward non-commercial and college & university operators. The concept allows operators to prepare fresh sushi utilizing their current labor force while providing higher profits than hiring a sushi chef or purchasing frozen, commissary-sourced sushi. “We are proud of this product and the opportunity to provide our customers with an innovative and profitable way to prepare high quality sushi,” said Sue Gurkin, King & Prince’s Director of Innovation.
A Sushi Bob™ kit contains freshly frozen seafood and freshly frozen pre-sheeted rice. A total of five product kits were developed including popular flavors such as smoked salmon, tuna, tempura shrimp, imitation crab and Lobster Sensations®. Each kit yields exactly 32 rolls of sushi, providing the operator the exact amount of ingredients to reduce waste. A starter kit also offers a Sushi Chef coat and hat, bamboo mats, sauce bottles, sashimi knife and a sushi station sign available for the roll-your-own sushi station.
