With sixteen years under its belt Wiltshire Farm Foods has come a long way from its humble beginnings delivering delectable, guaranteed nutritious and fully safety checked meals direct to your door since 1992.

Now that must have been a relief! No endless supermarket queues or heavy bags to carry home, and you know a hot meal is only minutes away – and the best bit is the minimal washing up! Development Chef Shiva Osborne works designing delicious new concepts to tickle your taste buds, sourcing the best ingredients and working to make current dishes even better. This could include flavouring, accompaniments or cleaner ingredients, or recently lowering salt content, experimenting with herbs and seasonings to attain the same taste or perfecting our dishes for those of you with special dietary requirements.

We caught up with Shiva to see what’s happening in the kitchens, take a sneak peek at some sensational summer dishes and get in the party spirit in the run-up to our Sweet Sixteen!

Hi Shiva, you work alongside Phil in the Wiltshire Farm Foods kitchen, is there anything new we should know about?

“We’ve been busy putting the finishing touches to our new range for summer – they’re sensational, a real mix of fresh flavours from home and abroad that should please the palate and soothe the soul – whatever summer holds in store!”

Can you reveal some of the new products to us, a favourite perhaps?

“Ok, but just one! It’s a tough choice, but I think I’d have to say the Monkfish with Peas & Pancetta, it’s a lovely, meaty fish with a subtle flavour and is perfect paired with the spiced Italian pancetta, which is like a thin, streaky bacon. It’s definitely worth a try and a great addition to our fish menu.”

And what about sweet treats....

“Now you’re pushing it!” She laughs, “All I’m saying is that you won’t be disappointed if you’re an ice cream aficionado!”

And what are your thoughts on Wiltshire Farm Foods celebrating its sixteenth birthday? “It’s great to witness the journey we’re on at Wiltshire Farm Foods and how the business has grown, along with the tastes of our customers. Phil has encouraged a strong food philosophy, and this has filtered down through the range, with attention to regional tastes and ingredients, and all-British meat throughout the Select range, so we’ve really got something to celebrate.” And we think so too!
