Chef Jerry McDonald is currently the Vice President of Culinary at Midas Foods International, and he is responsible for the development of some of the finest, custom, chef-inspired, dry-mix sauces, glazes, gravies, bases, drinks, and desserts. An incredibly passionate culinary ambassador, Chef Jerry and his culinary team work with restaurant chains and other customers to carefully understand their unique recipes, select the best ingredients, and create a high-quality blend that's comparable to those made from scratch. Their custom blends are easy to store and prepare, have a long shelf-life, and significantly reduce costs. He is committed to upholding high-quality standards and never settles on "good enough." Chef Jerry and the Ignite culinary team talk about what's trending in flavors and how chefs need to look at how to do things the best way possible by being resourceful.
