Culinary trend tracking is about rubber-necking for the next sriracha, but it's not only that. For this issue of Culinary Trend Tracking Series (CuTTS), we go back-to-the-basics to look at chef-driven trends around menu, kitchen, and pantry staples: beets, black pepper, bread, butter, cauliflower, eggs, figs, honey, meatballs, nuts, olives, pasta and cheese, ricotta, sweet potato, and tea. As a key piece of the puzzle, we'll look at how creative new applications can span the restaurant vs. retail divide to participate in progressive food industry innovation.

The analysis provides:

Several key trend drivers propelling food trends are discussed throughout this report.
