Blue Horizon Wild announced today a new product line based on a fine dining tradition for preparing seafood.
The method, called en papillote, is a French cooking method of preparing seafood in a sealed wrapper to preserve moisture. The company, in its announcement, noted that this method is common in fine dining, or what the company called “white tablecloth” restaurants.
The four new products — Seafood Cioppino, Sweet & Spicy Sole, Mediterranean Salmon and Seafood Enchiladas — are made to be prepared in the microwave at home. The company is billing the entrees as a new, easy way to prepare seafood that has been hard for some consumers to do in the past.
"They make a beautiful presentation right out of the wrapper,” said Chuck Marble, Blue Horizon’s president. “They literally plate themselves."
The company said the products are healthier and more environmentally friendly than other products. The entrees, being sealed, need no butter or oil, and the company said the seafood comes from sustainable artisan fishing communities.
The new products are already in national distribution in the United States and can be found in either the seafood or frozen food cases of a number of national retailers.
