Smoky Flavors
Phil Lempert, aka the Supermarket Guru, has identified smoky flavors as one of the hot food trends for 2015, as reported by the Chicago Tribune: “After the rise of hot sauces such as sriracha, Lempert sees smoky flavors gaining the attention of cooks. Some may go out and buy a backyard smoker, while others will add liquid smoke to a recipe or look for smoked canned vegetables or smoked cheese at the store.”
