Welcome to the first edition of our newsletter, where we are excited to share details about a unique partnership that blends culinary education and sustainable business practices. We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with School of Hospitality from ITE College West. Through this event, it emphasises the importance of education and sustainability. Thanks to this partnership, students have the opportunity to take part in designing a menu for a lunch/dinner service and learn about how premium soy sauce is made using sustainable methods in the industry.
Through this partnership, we aim to support the sustainable goals set by the United Nations towards quality education. The soy sauce used in this collaboration is none other than our very own DoYouBo (豆油伯). As a company that prioritizes sustainability and fair business practices, we are proud to sponsor this partnership with the School of Hospitality, ITE College West.
You may be wondering why soy sauce plays a crucial role in sustainable food systems. As highlighted in a recent global overview of national programs to encourage food industries to reduce sodium in their products, soy sauce is an ingredient that contributes to the sodium content of foods. By working with students and chefs to develop a menu that uses our premium soy sauce, we hope to showcase how it is possible to create delicious dishes while reducing the sodium content of food.
When you're creating a culinary experience, the right ingredients is everything. That's why our collaboration with the all-star team from ITE College West, School of Hospitality, was so great — because they know how to create the right mix of people and personalities to create something truly unforgettable. This was an exciting and also a quality educational event for everyone, working with such a young AND talented group of people. So you are probably asking, how did they manage to create an exclusive menu?
Students took on the challenge to present an event of innovative idea that could make a positive difference to the school. What were their ideas you ask? Simply put, it was taking traditional hospitality and shaking it up. You know what we say, there's no better way to learn than by doing. Providing them an opportunity to use quality, premium and award wining ingredients from DoYouBo (豆油伯), Taiwan has allow them to appreciate the creative process, enhance their critical thinking capabilities and step out from their comfort zone.
