Foods of 2015

2014 left us with health conscious foods such as kale, freekeh, and chia seeds in our diets. This year, according to the Sydney Morning Herald foods such as quark (a german dairy product), black rice, buckwheat and matcha (a type of green tea) will replace these foods.

Food trends are set by availability of product, health benefits, new foods, media and local chefs. What do I think will be popular foods for 2015? I think that we will start seeing more street food such as ramen noodles and ethnic dishes on menus. Freshly ground spices will make a comeback in home cooking and lastly gluten free products and alternatives will be in high demand as more of us try and cut out the amount of gluten in our diets.

What are your predictions?
