A Smarter Side – Edgell Cauliflower Rice Changes the Game for Busy Kitchens

In the high-pressure world of hospitality, where speed, consistency, and creativity must co-exist, foodservice professionals are constantly on the lookout for solutions that lighten the load without compromising quality. Enter Edgell Cauliflower Rice from Simplot Foodservice—a timely innovation that delivers more than just a healthy side.

With diners increasingly seeking low-carb, gluten-free, and plant-based alternatives, cauliflower rice has exploded in popularity. But preparing it from scratch in a commercial kitchen presents a unique set of challenges: labour-intensive prep, high wastage, inconsistent yields, and short shelf life. Simplot has taken these hurdles head-on with a product designed specifically for professional kitchens. 

Time-Saving with No Compromise
For busy chefs, time is currency. Edgell Cauliflower Rice arrives pre-cut, perfectly portioned, and ready to use—eliminating the laborious steps of trimming, blitzing, and draining raw cauliflower. It’s simply heat and serve. No food processor, no mess, and no cleaning up. The result is a versatile, neutral-flavoured base that soaks up bold global flavours and holds its own in modern menu applications. 

Consistency that Holds Up
One of the top frustrations in foodservice is inconsistency—whether it’s in portion size, cook times, or taste. With Edgell Cauliflower Rice, operators can expect a uniform product every time. This level of consistency not only supports quality control but also helps manage food costs more effectively, especially across multi-site operations or seasonal staff rotations.

Frozen Convenience with Reduced Waste
Storage and shelf life are key considerations in every kitchen. Delivered frozen, Edgell Cauliflower Rice ensures minimal waste and optimal inventory control. There’s no need to second-guess how long prepped cauliflower will last in the cool room—just use what you need, when you need it. It’s ideal for unpredictable service flows, whether you’re prepping for a busy lunch run or adjusting on the fly to a quiet dinner shift.

Health-Focused Versatility
More than just a trend, health-conscious dining is here to stay. Edgell Cauliflower Rice hits multiple dietary needs—it’s low-carb, gluten-free, and plant-based. This makes it an effortless swap on the menu: a side dish, base for grain-free bowls, or a lighter alternative in stir-fries and curries. It gives chefs a modern twist that keeps the health-minded diner satisfied without requiring a rethink of the entire kitchen workflow.

Reliable Supply from a Trusted Name
Backed by Simplot Foodservice’s trusted supply chain and quality assurance, chefs can have confidence in consistent stock availability and food safety—non-negotiables in today’s competitive dining landscape.
