First, find the food with similar ideas in the market for investigation and tasting, and then conceive the flavor, ingredients and production methods of our own product line. The composition of the product line will include hot consumer drainage products precipitated in the market, as well as self-owned innovation and breakthrough design direction to ensure the perfection of product composition. The boss of each company has different ideas, and the composition of R&D direction will be conservative or innovative in different ways.

according to the design of dishes, all kinds of ingredients and condiments are purchased, and the formula and technology of each product are determined through research and development. ?

every product prototype is the crystallization of many years' cooking by chefs in the R&D center. In this process, the matching of main and non-staple food ingredients, the selection of condiments and the input ratio, the preset reduction degree of standardized transformation production in the future, and the implantation of personalized concept of single products are all repeatedly practiced, so as to create a more mature product line.

iv. sop production

Make the determined food production tools, production process, raw material names, seasoning brands, dosage grams, etc. into standard SOPs for use in stores or factories, so that everyone with basic operation can better restore the developed food and put it into the market.
