Pilot 8 - Test new round goby products in public kitchens

The aim of pilot 8 is to use mainly minced round goby, developed in pilot 7 to serve to public kitchens. Kalmar municipality is a big consumer of locally produced food and runs 8 public kitchens, which prepare 2200 meals per day. The aim is to include round goby products in the public procurement of the municipal kitchens in Kalmar.

Pilot owner: Kalmar Municipality

Participating partners: MCS, Skillinge Fisk, Branteviks Fisk

Kalmar Municipality will involve an interested consumer panel early on the project, followed by cooking demonstrations for municipal officials, politicians and wholesalers. As a next step, chefs in the municipal kitchens will run their own trials with round goby products and serve the product to public consumers in schools and retirement homes.

The activities will be recorded (i.e. demonstration movies) to exchange methods with other showcases and associated partners such as the Guldborgsund municipality (DK) and to investigate possibilities to use similar strategies in other partner countries.

Progress:

In mid-October, MCS and Rosbergs Fisk prepared and transported the first batch of whole fish and fillets of round goby to Kalmar for local chefs to cook with during the annual Sustainability week. The chefs created four different dishes that could be replicated in public kitchens and high-end restaurants. Kalmar Kommun also produced a video where you can watch the chefs prepare and cook tasty round goby dishes. A second event is planned for spring 2025.
