The Premier Jus range of products has been tested and approved by the Craft Guild, and so we are now able to put an ‘approved product’ CGofC logo on our labels.
This is further recognition for our Premier Jus range, a unique product for the discerning chef. Ask us how you can incorporate it easily into your own jus production, maintaining your kitchen made taste, but saving valuable time and money.

We have moved into a new 8000 sq ft facility in the Woodford Park Industrial Estate.
The company has also taken on four new staff after enjoying a successful year with a 58% increase in sales, with new appointments in sales, technical development and customer services.
Nigel said: “Our recent expansion and recruitment drive demonstrates how exciting the last year has been at Essential Cuisine.
 “When I set up the company I knew there was a gap in the market for a specialist range of stocks, jus and glaces, all made to taste and perform like traditional kitchen-made stocks. The uptake from chefs across the country has been amazing and we continue to work with them and listen to what they want to make their jobs easier.”

Matthew Worsley, 19, who works as demi chef de partie at the Radisson SAS in Manchester, beat off stiff competition from the other county finalists from Merseyside, Cheshire, Cumbria and Lancashire, to take home the title.
The competition, which we are proud to sponsor, has become the highest profile contest for young chefs in the region with finalists battling it out each year in front of some of the country’s top chefs. Here is Matthew with fellow contestant Daniel Simpson and chef judge Stephen Docherty.
Matthew impressed the judges with his starter of Pan fried fillet of John Dory, butternut squash and Morecambe shrimp of tian with parsley fumet, a main course of stuffed saddle of rabbit, open Cumbrian ham and onion pie, glazed baby vegetables and a damson jus.
