With an estimated 17% of total global food production wasted across households, food service and in retail, minimising our personal contribution to this statistic is an important - and necessary - step we all have a collective responsibility to take, across every meal we prepare and consume. As such, we are delighted to share our favourite smoked salmon leftovers recipe with you.
At Smokin’ Brothers we are champions of sustainability, and ethical methods and practices are at the heart of what we do. So our chefs have whipped up an Italian delicacy leftovers recipe just for you!
