Now in its seventh year, the annual DOLE Flavor Pairings is a prediction of exciting flavor combinations currently reflected in popular menu trends. For 2017, the Dole Foodservice team identified the ubiquity of bowls on foodservice menus, and devoted its culinary creativity to bringing operators the best and brightest contemporary ingredient and flavor combinations served in a bowl.
To create recipes across the vast scope of possibilities, the Dole Kitchen identified six menu parts, and assigned each with three fruit-flavor combinations. The result: the 2017 DOLE Flavor Pairings will bowl over operators with a buffet of fruit-forward ideas served in America’s favorite container.
