Bethany is celebrating the test launch of a new spice blend. In partnership with Aramark, Bethany has developed a healthy spice blend to use on proteins such as chicken, beef and fish. Sapan Dutt, Director of Culinary for Aramark Canada began perfecting the spice blend in December 2016, and is now testing it at Bethany Calgary. In the future, Bethany hopes to launch this spice blend at every Bethany site.
Bethany’s House Spice Blend ingredients include handmined, unrefined full spectrum life crystal mineral salt (Himalayan salt), sesame seeds, black pepper, minced garlic, lemon peel, parsley flakes and rose hip. With this high quality spice blend made up of organic herbs, spices and the delicious mineral salt you can easily create a healthy and enjoyable meal.
Himalayan crystal mineral salt contains 84 minerals and has been proven to have many health benefits. Some of the benefits of Himalayan salt over regular table salt include detoxifying the body by balancing systemic pH, improving hydration, reducing muscle cramps by improving minerals and hydration, helping balance blood sugar because it provides unrefined, mineral-rich salt in an ionic solution, improving sleep by supporting blood sugar and hormone balance, acting as a powerful antihistamine, supporting weight loss by balancing hormones and improving energy and supporting thyroid function.
Sapan says that the goal is for Bethany kitchens to use this spice blend with the mineral salt instead of using regular salt. Sapan also hopes to introduce mineral salt to residents to provide them with the health benefits of it as well as the excellent flavour. Bottles of the seasoning will be available to purchase at Bethany Calgary starting this month. Proceeds from the spice blend will go towards expanding the blend to all sites or making site specific blends.
