We visited the university as part of our Street Food Takeover, where we unlocked street food flavours from around the globe, and saw Tom bring our recipe creations to life using Tilda\u2019s Easy Cook Basmati rice. Three dishes were served on the day including the Nasi Goreng, Moong Dhal and Risamisu, which all went down incredibly well with the students, and chef Tom approved too.<\/p>\n<p>We wanted some insight from Tom himself on what stands out to him, he said \u201cTilda\u2019s Easy Cook Basmati rice lent itself perfectly to all three dishes&#8230;The aspect of the Easy Cook Basmati rice which stood out most for me was the overall quality and the amount that it stretches to\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Tom is passionate about delivering nutritious, high-quality meals which students are looking for on campus and partnering with Tilda allows him to do this, sharing both his culinary ambitions and his values. He explains, \u201ca big appeal about working with Tilda is the work that they do with sustainability to reduce their footprints because they are values which the university share\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Discover the video below to see what we got up to when we visited Huddersfield University and learn more about how Tilda Foodservice can support your kitchen too.<\/p>\n\n
