Food to order – the advantages of constructor services
Experts of the Shefmarket fresh food delivery service talk about why cooking using photo recipes is tasty, inexpensive, no worse than using grandma’s recipes, and everything else is myths and stereotypes that it’s time to say goodbye to.
Not at all, especially if you divide your salary by the number of hours worked, and multiply the resulting figure by the hours you spend searching for original recipes on the Internet, groceries in stores and cooking. It is also important to take into account the leftovers of products that were not useful and were scrapped. Constructor services save time and money in the following way: several times a week, a courier delivers fresh products in exactly the amount that is needed for each recipe. That is, if for spicy beef with sweet couscous you need 300 g of meat, 175 g of couscous, 15 g of parsley and 1 g of cumin, that is exactly how much they will bring you. And the instructions will write how to store all these products correctly.

As a rule, no. Food developers make sure that not only you, but also your family do not get bored: you can choose from several lines of dishes – basic, original, vegan, fitness or a line of ready-made food (so as not to design anything at all in the kitchen at home, but at the same time do not visit the dining room in the office). The recipes are constantly changing. At Chefmarket, they are invented by such stars of the Moscow culinary scene as Nedalny Vostok sous-chef Dmitry Ponomarev, brand-chef of Jamie Oliver Group in Russia Matteo Lai and other cool specialists. They have already come up with
5. Homemade recipes are more familiar and tastier
The most delicious borscht is my mother’s, and the pies are my grandmother’s, no one argues with that. Therefore, services are trying to include in the menu what is already familiar to all family members: for example, pork kebabs with buckwheat or potato casserole with beef. No unusual tastes, and a bonus that technologists and nutritionists have worked on: the dinner menu for the week is designed so that you do not overeat, but get all the necessary proteins, fats, carbohydrates and vitamins – the amount of nutrients contained in each dish is indicated in the recipe.
Of course, a lot depends on your physical parameters and activity during the day, but you can choose the right menu line. For example,
