The small batch crafted gluten-free sauces capture the street food craze
SAN FRANCISCO – January 22, 2017 – Your Culinary Wingman™ has done it again! This time, Urban Accents is poised to navigate the burgeoning world of tacos for novice and creative chefs alike. These are not your mama’s hard shell, dry spice mix variety. We’re talking about today’s tacos. Tortillas are the new blank canvas to showcase culinary creativity. With Urban Accents’ four global street style Taco Simmer Sauces, it’s time for all to confidently join the Instagram chatter and post their #TacoLife photos on #TacoTuesday with pride.
Follow the buzz to the Urban Accents booth at this year’s Winter Fancy Food Show, January 22-24 in San Francisco, to sample its new line of naturally flavored, gluten-free Taco Simmer Sauces. The globally-inspired line draws influence from street food trends from different corners of the world. The four different sauces serve as a flavor-saturating base and can create hundreds of different taco varieties, meat-based or vegetarian. From easy, approachable family dinners to late night eats, each bottle of sauce prepares up to three pounds of meat or veggies in just 20 minutes. Preparation directions and creative serving suggestions are included on the labels.
The Taco Simmer Sauce line’s flavor profiles include:
“Urban Accents stepped into the sauce game last year when we introduced our first line of simmer and pizza sauces at the Summer Fancy Food Show. These have been an overwhelming success for us,” said Tom Knibbs, President and co-founder and of Urban Accents. “We are poised to answer the consumer shift towards newer brands and specialty flavors by bringing these trends to life for our retailers. Last year Americans ate over 4.5 billion tacos—we expect that number to continue rising.“
“Many consumers want to cook with new flavors, but aren’t always sure how to,” said co-founder Jim Dygas. “Our new taco sauce line delivers an approachable introduction to experimentation in the kitchen, by starting with an easy-to-prepare base and inspiration on how to get creative with toppings and garnishes to create extraordinary tacos.”
