Cut Costs and Save Energy In Your Commercial Kitchen

Since the start of the global pandemic of COVID-19, it has been more challenging for the restaurant industry. As we look forward in 2022 and beyond, it is crucial to start looking for ways to cut costs and save energy in your commercial kitchen. The energy can vary from the energy you pay for to run all of the commercial kitchen equipment to the energy of the staff to keep them happy!

Here are 3 ways you can cut costs and save energy in your commercial kitchen:

Develop a solid management system.

Without an efficient management system and strategy in place, employees will not be able to repeat the same activities consistently. Therefore, there will not be any results. This system will cover the stock, purchase the products needed, communicate with the providers, and improve your menu. This allows the person in charge of ordering to dedicate themselves to the process of ordering stock from the providers while being prepared to solve any problem along the way.

Create a more optimized prep area.

Your prep area must be designated to be flexible and meet the demand in several operational shifts. By doing this, no prep area will be left on idle. Overall, having a more optimized prep area will leave you with happy kitchen staff due to the flexibility of the prep area and happy customers since they will be getting their food in a timely manner.

Use the latest technology to your advantage.

With updates in technology, most commercial kitchens are investing in air fryers. Not only do they create healthier food for your customers without the grease, they are also way more efficient. Air fryers also do not require preheat time and typically cut 10 to 15 minutes of cooking time off of menu items. The Quik n’ Crispy Greaseless fryer is fast, hassle free, and affordable.

We hope these tips help you cut costs and save energy in your commercial kitchen!
