Appetizer Tips

Barker’s Professional savoury fillings can be used in a wide variety of applications.

By blending Barkers Professional savoury fillings, they make mouthwatering dips. For example, mixing BP Basil & Garlic savoury filling with lemon juice, honey and Greek style yoghurt creates a fantastic dip for lamb koftas or blending BP chilli & red onion savoury filling with an aioli provides an amazing all-purpose dip.

Add 120-150 grams of Barkers Professional savoury filling to 1 litre of oil, let it sit for a day or two, and you’ll have a delicious, flavour oil for salad dressings or bread.

Use Savoury Fillings in Main Dishes

The Basil & Garlic savoury filling is a heat-stable, nut-free, and dairy-free substitute for basil pesto. Use Barker’s Professional savoury fillings as a base in meat pies or to add pops of flavour to quiches by mixing them into the egg mixture or piping small dollops onto the pastry before adding the quiche mix. For a Mediterranean pie, combine Sundried Tomato & Olive filling with mince, parmesan cheese, and oregano.

Mix Barker’s Professional savoury fillings into scone dough or muffin batter for unique Indian-inspired treats like caramelised onion & feta scones or Bombay savoury muffins. Combine these fillings with Cream Style Meal Base and grated cheese for flavourful danishes or pastry pinwheel scones. Add proteins like pulled pork or beef brisket to elevate them into showstoppers.

Breakfast burritos featuring bacon, scrambled eggs, and Sundried Tomato & Olive or Tomato & Mushroom savoury fillings will be a hit in any café. Pizzas and Barker’s Professional savoury fillings are a perfect match: lamb, pizzas and meat lovers.

Traditional products like Cornish pasties can be reinvigorated by adding a hit of Spicy Vegetable or Chilli & Red Onion savoury filling, creating interest and additional sales opportunities in a mature product segment.

Excellent in Side Dishes

Incorporate Barker’s Professional savoury fillings into your marinating process for enhanced flavour. For example, combine the Capsicum & Apricot savoury filling with buttermilk to marinate chicken breasts or thighs. Then, use the same filling to glaze the chicken before searing or grilling.

Mix any of Barker’s Professional savoury fillings with butter (optional: add chopped herbs), roll the butter into a log, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Once refrigerated and firm, the log can be sliced into discs and used to top steaks, prawns, pork roasts, and more.

These fillings can also be injected into bread or dinner rolls for an intense burst of flavour, or used as toppings on specialty breads like focaccia, allowing businesses to create multiple variants from a single dough recipe.

Sausage rolls and Barker’s Professional savoury fillings are a perfect match. Adding these fillings to your traditional sausage meat mixture opens up a whole new range of delicious sausage rolls that your customers will love.
