Answers

IQF Beans, Lentils & Grains questions

What are IQF beans?

IQF beans are fully cooked beans that are individually quick frozen. They need no soaking or cooking: thaw or add frozen to the recipe. They hold their shape and give a consistent yield compared with dry beans or canned beans in brine.

Do you supply IQF lentils and chickpeas?

Yes. Cooked IQF lentils and chickpeas are available in bulk cases and totes, alongside dry lentils and chickpeas for manufacturers that cook in-house.

Do you supply IQF cooked grains?

Yes. Cooked brown rice, quinoa, barley, farro and ancient-grain blends are available IQF for ready meals, bowls and foodservice.

What is the minimum order?

Minimums depend on the item. Many ingredients can be ordered by the case or bag; pricing improves at pallet, tote and truckload volumes. Every quote states the minimum (MOQ), pack, lead time and FOB or delivered price.

What documentation comes with an order?

A specification sheet and certificate of analysis (COA) for every lot, plus an allergen statement and country of origin. Pasteurization or sterilization letters, micro results and organic or Non-GMO certificates are supplied where the item carries them.
