I can’t believe that we are entering into
2016 already! It only seems like yesterday
that we all descended on London for the
Fish and Chip awards and now it is nearly
time to go again.
Reaction to the Chippy Chat Chip Barons’
Ball has been excellent. Thanks again to
all sponsors and ticket holders. Already 15
tables have been sold for this year’s event
to be held in Peterborough on December
4th 2016. We also have added two new
sponsors for the evening and we aim to
make it even bigger and better once again.
Reserve your space today.
Once again we have a packed issue for
you as we look forward to the awards,
feature some fantastic fish suppliers and
companies and also the latest from our
in house potato expert Prof Spud (via
Frymax).
Our front page featured partner is Friars
Pride promoting their excellent Fry It show.
Put the date in your diary Sunday 28th
February 2016.

The product, 1.7kg can of MSC certified ‘Fairer Fish’ Skipjack Tuna in brine is available from Caterers Choice, and is celebrated as being
unique to foodservice, being the very first in the UK to make this popular MSC certified fish available in a can to a number of large foodservice caterers, wholesalers, schools and LEA’s.
The MSC certified ‘Fairer Fish’ canned tuna uses only MSC certified Skipjack tuna caught in the PNA region of the Western Central Pacific Ocean.
The canned MSC tuna is currently available at a number of suppliers. The ‘Fairer Fish’ brand tuna is clearly marked with the recognisable blue ecolabel and is creating interest amongst other contract caterers who are already committed to support the
MSC and have chain of custody certification.Response from UK Foodservice so far suggest
Caterers Choice expect high demand for the foodservice-first certified cans of ‘Fairer Fish’ tuna. This new MSC tuna product, offers caterers the benefit of this popular, nutritious and versatile fish which is reassuringly sustainable and can be traced back to certified fisheries.
George Clark, MSC UK Commercial Manager, was very pleased with the launch and widespread availability of the first certified sustainable canned tuna for UK Foodservice.
‘This is fantastic news for the UK foodservice! It now makes it so much easier for caterers with chain of custody certification to use and promote MSC
sustainable tuna on their menus or their range of dishes. MSC certified ‘Fairer Fish’ tuna appears to be gaining plenty of interest throughout the foodservice too.
The range of species and formats available that are MSC certified are steadily increasing, giving
all caterers even more opportunity to get certified and offer demonstrably sustainable and traceable fish.’
For more information visit www.msc.org
That’s For-Tuna-te!The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is proud to announce that Caterer’s Choice, a leading importer and supplier of canned goods to the UK, is the first to introduce MSC certified sustainable canned tuna to the UK’s Foodservice sector.

Nigel Hodgson always fries inNigel Hodgson knows a thing or two about the Fish and Chip business.
He has won the National Fish and Chip Shop of the Year Award and
both he and his shop manager Paul Eden have been winners of the
Drywite /NFFF Young Fish Frier of the Year Award. Nigel is also
a trainer at the prestigious KFE School of Frying Excellence.
Nigel’s byword is “consistency”ensuring that top quality fish and chips
are produced using fish from sustainable stocks and locally grown
potatoes. He is most particular about the frying medium he uses,
insisting on a fat that produces perfect results every time. The brand
Nigel chooses and recommends is Frymax.
Frymax is produced from top quality pure white premium palm, which
is additive free and contains no hydrogenated oils. Not only does it
guarantee consistently good results, its performance is long lasting
without any deterioration in quality.
Nigel Hodgson knows that if you want to continue to produce the best,
there’s none better than Frymax.

Doctor, Lawyers & Friers
As it was in 1966, Papa’s is still very much a family business, if you’re visiting our newest flag
ship restaurant in Hull you’ll be able to catch two generations of the family on most nights. Sid can often be found behind the pans frying with over 25 years’ experience, alongside Dino and George (who are both fully trained Solicitors and Doctors respectively) who now work in the family business and are current finalists in the Drywite Young Fish Frier of the Year Awards.
The Hull Restaurant is the world’s largest fish and chip restaurant. The restaurant
boasts 400 seats spread across multiple levels.
The restaurant offers a large variety of sustainably caught fish. Testament to this commitment is the MSC Chain of Custody Accreditation which is held for a number of fish on offer. As well as the MSC Cod, Plaice and Haddock – which are undoubtedly the most popular choices – diners can also choose from the ‘Sustainable Catch’ Board and indulge in freshly landed sustainable fish from the nearby docks and fish markets. As well as the huge senior following that Papa’s has developed in a short period of time, we have also became a hot spot for young families. Offering a fresh twists on classic dishes has made our simple menu appealing to all age groups.
Joining the Sustainable Restaurant Association has further reinforced our belief that running a sustainable business is of paramount importance. As part of the association – and the only independent restaurant in East Yorkshire to be a member – we are encouraged to
Papa’s is a real family run business. Our first fish and chip shop opened in 1966 in Margate, Kent. The restaurant and takeaway grew from
strength to strength with a great reputation amongst the locals and tourists alike. Serving
quality fish and chips at affordable prices was at the heart of what we did – this philosophy is
what drives the business on today.

evaluate our everyday practices. As one would expect, a huge part of this involves the sourcing of your fish – however, much more is involved. Working with the association you’re encouraged to audit and re-audit your current practices to ensure they are in-line with current guidelines. We have seen huge benefits from this not only ensuring we operate responsibly but also efficiently.
Spreading the MSC message has been a huge part our day-to-day dialogue with customers. We believe it is extremely important to engage customers in a conversation about sustainability and spread the message. Having the MSC accreditation equips us with the tools and confidence to discuss the provenance of our products.
We are so proud to offer Gluten Free at our restaurant. This is available all-day everyday in both the restaurant and takeaway. Providing this service has proved a huge undertaking. Between the acquisition of separate cooking utensils and a state of the art frying range there has been a huge amount of staff training involved. Being able to provide Gluten Free meals is a huge responsibility and we have worked hard perfecting our technique with the training and guidance provided from Coeliac UK – in fact, we
are currently in the process of gaining our Gluten Free Accreditation.
Staff are often an un-utilised asset in Fish and Chip Restaurants and the hospitality industry as a whole. After such a huge investment in our Hull Restaurant it was only natural that we would want the quality of our product reflected in the quality of our service. Our team have greatly benefited from the enrolment onto the Seafood Academy by UKRS Training. With 28 apprentices and more being signed up each week, we have seen a huge benefit in knowledge, service and also morale. The training has equipped our team with knowledge to feel comfortable serving our signature dish – fish and chips. A great aspect of the Seafood Academy is the courses are designed specifically around the fish and chip industry (unlike most hospitality and catering apprenticeships), this has been invaluable and helped us change the perception that a job in fish and chips is just a thoroughfare for something else.
A main feature of our Hull Restaurant is our Fish and Chip museum, featuring the UK’s oldest Frank Ford frying range. The Museum also features other nostalgic throwbacks to the fish and chip industry and the trawling past of Hull and East Yorkshire.

Hong Kong Chewy!Zan Fish Wholesale journeyed to
Hong Kong to train the staff of The Chippy at the Best of British
Festival. The Best of British Festival is an event aimed at bringing the UK closer to the people of Asia. Brands such as Aston Martin, Ted Baker, Land Rover, Links of London, Sunseekers, Brompton and Guinness were also present at the event.
A part of the Derby based fish and chip shop chain, Zan Fish Wholesale has decades of industry experience, and is a one stop shop for all fish and chip shop catering needs. They stock dry, fresh and frozen goods, and provide both catering equipment and hands-on support to their clients.
During their time in Hong Kong, Zan Fish setup an entire kitchen, trained 14 staff, and offered continuous on site support. The pop up fish and chip shop was incredibly busy, and at one point Zan Fish had to arrange for an emergency supply of extra fish and chips to be delivered via air freight.
Operations Director, David Parnell, said: “We’ve had to work hard in getting a new supply flown across to Hong Kong.
To say we had to pull a few arms is an understatement it simply comes down to our long term relationships with our suppliers.”
Zan Fish Wholesale will continue to support The Chippy team in Hong Kong, as well as the other restaurants they plan to open throughout 2016 and 2017.
Craig of The Chippy said, “Zan Fish are our inspiration, and we can’t wait to have the team back for more fish and chip adventures.”
Nickos, Managing Director of Zan Fish Wholesale, said: “It was definitely a challenge, but now we have the experience of going overseas. Zan Fish Wholesale can now provide any fish and chip business with support, whether that be in the UK or elsewhere around the globe.”

Colmans and Collins Seafoods – a catch made in heaven!
Eleven miles east of Newcastle – upon – Tyne, lies the popular seaside resort of South Shields, famous for its
pleasure beach, arcades and Colmans.
If you are a fish and chip fan who is yet to experience the delights of this award-winning, coastal town chippy, you are
certainly missing out. The family owned fish and chip shop is
famous around the country - the world even - and has attracted visits from many celebrities over the years, such as Sting, Tony Blair, Sir Patrick Stewart, David Walliams, Bill Bryson and Alan Bennett to name but a few.
It is the fifth generation of the Colmans’ family currently at the helm of the restaurant, which is looking forward to another successful and exciting year.
Owner, Richard Ord, said: “We are currently in the process of extending the family business into a local iconic landmark, known as Ghandi’s temple and we are also planning an exciting, new seafood concept with the tag line of ‘seafood and chips’.
“This innovative idea will see us combine the very best fish and chips and local seafoods for all the family to enjoy, with a cocktail/oyster bar being developed to offer a more casual dining experience.”
As exciting as the future looks for Colmans, it’s the chip shop’s impressive history which has gained it the enviable reputation it has today.
Established in 1926, Colmans - which has provided its famous fish and chips at the Queen’s birthday celebrations in both Guatemala and more recently Rome, in the British ambassador’s residence - has won many prestigious awards including National Fish and Chip restaurant of the
year, BBC food and farming awards, Best UK takeaway and Gary Rhodes’ local food heroes national winner.
Colmans has twice been awarded the gold standard in the North East tourism awards and was the national winner of the good catch award for sustainability – not to mention earning the accolade of Best UK traditional fish and chips from Esquire Magazine.
Richard believes Colmans’ success is down to its ethos - which has never changed during its 79 years of trade.
He said: “At Colmans, we thrive to serve the best product and offer the highest standards of service.
“Coupled with value for money and attention to detail, we believe these attributes help us to strive and stand out within the industry.
“We believe quality is not expensive, it’s priceless and none of this would be possible without fantastic relations with great suppliers.”
Colmans and its supplier of Frozen at Sea fish, Collins Seafoods, have enjoyed a successful partnership for the last 30 years.
Talking about this successful business relationship, managing director, Richard Collins, said: “We all know Colmans has a great history, which has helped make them who they are today, but we love the fact they are changing with the times.
“Colmans has always been known for being a traditional fish shop and what’s great to see is it still maintains this in their current shop, while looking towards the future.
“We’re excited to continue our partnership with them as we move into a new year and look forward to seeing the business extend into Ghandi’s temple.”

JFK holds a cornerstone position in the history of the development of the Faroese fishing industry from small
and simple fishing vessels in the early 1900s to modern fishing trawlers, high- tech fish factories, and international sales channels today.
JFK Today - Frozen at Sea -“fresher than fresh”JFK is dedicated to providing the quality demanded by the customers. This capacity to deliver on a promise of high quality is one of the company’s key trademarks. Production is done onboard the fishing vessel Gadus. Our customers have a stable supply of high quality frozen at sea fish products during the whole year. Steps are taken at every juncture of the fishing process to ensure that JFK’s frozen-at-sea products are as fresh as possible. Frozen-at-sea has been called “fresher than fresh,” because within four hours from leaving the sea the fish is processed and frozen.JFK focuses on four areas of environmental responsibility: stocks, transparency, CO2 reduction, and prevention.JFK only fishes in regulated stocks as specified by the Faroese government, and has an open record of where its ships have sailed and how much catch is in their
hulls at any time. The company is also in the constant process of replacing heavy equipment with lighter models, reducing energy use and CO2 emissions.To prevent damage to ocean ecosystems, JFK years ago replaced its bottom-dragging trawls with new rolling models, and is mindful to have appropriately large trawl mesh and sieves so that immature fish do not come aboard.Quality, safety, knowledge, and responsibility are the keywords for food production today, and for these you can rely on JFK. All JFK processing factories and trawlers produce in accordance with HACCP principles.
MSC certified fisheryJFK recognizes the important role that primary producers play in protecting ocean ecosystems and maintaining sustainable productivity, and is taking voluntary steps in several areas to help preserve the ocean environment. JFK is a fully MSC certified company.
JFK are once again proudsponsors of “Frozen at Sea Fillets Association Awards” and the 2016 National Fish and Chips Awards ceremony in London on Wednesday 20th January.The National Fish & Chips Awards celebrate the nation’s favorite dish and recognise and reward those who provide the best fish and chips across the UK, both in terms of food and service.
Their track record shows that JFK has the capacity and capability to serve global
markets with high quality fish products.

Supplying the Fish & Chip Shops and Takeaways of Britain Unique Seafood was established with a
mission to supply UK customers with dependable, consistent quality and quantity fish direct from our own vessels at sea and has grown to become one of the UK’s main players in the seafood industry.
Unique Seafood has achieved recognition as a professional and trustworthy supplier, building longterm relationships based on mutual trust and respect. We are the preferred supplier to the wholesale, industrial and food service sectors, as well as supplying over 2500 Fish and chip shops and restaurants across Britain.
One of our Fish and Chip Shops we supply is “The Sheringham Trawler” in Norfolk Welcome to The Sheringham Trawler
The Sheringham Trawler is a fish and chip restaurant and takeaway in the High Street, Sheringham offering affordable meals and a family friendly approach.
Following on from the success of their other fish and chip shop in Holt, Albert’s Fish Bar, Andy and Lisa May have brought their own flair and unique approach to
Sheringham in the fishing boat themed restaurant and takeaway. On Tripadvisor
customers have praised the “kitsch and cool” decor, “fast and friendly service”
and the fact that “everything is really well cooked, especially the fish”.
The nautical theme adds to the atmosphere. The wooden boat frontage has a ship’s bell, which is popular with youngsters, and fishing nets with the theme continuing inside with seaside scenes and quirky marine features.
Catching up with Andy from The Sheringham Trawler
“The Sheringham Trawler started its voyage at the end of May 2014. It’s a restaurant/ takeaway that both myself and my wife Lisa are very proud of which has been growing in popularity since opening. We have had a long outstanding relationship with Unique Seafood, dating back before the Trawler at our other shop Alberts Fish Bar in Holt. What impresses me the most about Unique Seafood is the knowledge and the proactive approach they have on things of late. Such as their M.S.C credit, major sustainable source fishing and how they keep at the front in their marketing.
Unique Seafood has been involved with us at the beginning of the Trawlers adventures, providing us with ideas. I always recommend Unique Seafood to catering friends and customers for their outstanding customer service and products.”

MSC certification more than doubled in the UK last year, and interest is expected to accelerate through 2016.
With growing retail sales of MSC labelled seafood, a host of fish and chip shop and supplier
certifications, and enthusiastic feedback from the sector, it’s clear that there’s a wave of positive support for offering MSC certified sustainable seafood, which is likely to continue throughout 2016.
According to a recent MSC report, UK shoppers have shown an increased appetite for sustainable seafood, growing an estimated 16% on the year to March 2015, (and up 30% compared to 2 years ago). This is excellent news for the even greater number of fish and chip shops that have gained MSC certification over the past year, and are now serving their customers assured sustainable, traceable seafood.
Looking ahead and following a successful year, the MSC is anticipating the following trends and predictions in the fish and chip shop sector for 2016:
Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen a huge rise in interest from both suppliers and from fish and chip shop. That will only grow in 2016 as MSC certification becomes more widespread in the sector.
The number of MSC certified fish and chip
restaurants in the UK has more than doubled in the past year, which has also resulted in an increase in sales of MSC certified fish. The number of MSC certified purchases from fish and chip shops with chain of custody certification has doubled. These are largely purchases of popular species such as MSC certified cod, haddock, plaice and hake, with some other more niche products such as scallops, crab and mussels also featuring on chip shop menus.
By the end of 2016 we hope to have more than 100 fish and chip shops with MSC certification. That’s a significant acceleration, with the number of certified chippies having more than doubled this next year, we’re expecting the same trend next year.
We will start to see Cornish hake appearing on fish and chip shop menus, particularly in the south west, in the first half of the year.
The Cornish hake fishery, was the first in the UK to gain certification, in June this year and has generated a great deal of interest in the supply chain; both MSC suppliers and fish and chip shops alike. Originally a species that was mostly being exported to Spain, now the majority of Cornish hake landed in Newlyn is consumed here in the

UK. It’s a delicious alternative to other species and is great battered with chips.
We expect more fish and chip shops will start to look at Kingfisher’s record-breaking menu for certified sustainable species and introduce some of the more unusual MSC certified seafood to their customers.
Over the past year a number of chippies have moved towards offering more unusual certified seafood choices on their menu, offering customers a greater range of tasty, healthy sustainable seafood at an affordable price.
Pioneering Kingfisher Fish and Chips in Plymouth, for example, launched a menu earlier this year with 12 sustainable species, the most of any restaurant worldwide. It included MSC certified seafood from UK waters, such as MSC Jersey lobster and certified Cornish sardines. It also included cod and haddock from the well-managed cold, deep waters of the North East Arctic (Barents & Norwegian Seas).
We’re also looking for new opportunities and routes to MSC certification to help even more fish and chip shops to put the MSC label on their menu. Something we hope to tell you more about early next year.
We also plan to get really involved with promoting all our certified shops through a summer campaign. Watch this space…
George Clark, Commercial Manager at the MSC says: “Everything is on the cards for a great year for sustainable fish and chip shops and we’re expecting that this year’s growth in interest will accelerate through 2016.”

All the entries were collected and verified put in a huge prize draw. And the winner of the brand new car is …. Tony Pollard of
Grandma Pollards chippy Todmorden.
Only in the true spirit of Christmas staff member Zara Hilton who entered the competition on behalf of the shop 15
times was given the car for herself.Zara was thrilled. Having only just passed
her test at the tender age of 26, she had been a road user for a mere 4 weeks when the star prize was presented to her.
Tony a Nortech Superior customer for over 25 years said “Zara has been with us for around three years now, she actually posted the entries and its only right she walks away with the prize – we have been using Superior for a long time now its what helps make our fish and chips taste so good.”
Zara said “I am speechless to be driving this new car around, the only other thing I’ve ever won is £2 on a scratch card. I actually collected over 30 entries for the competition but only ended up sending 15 of them in.”
Grandma Pollard and her family started in the premises known today as Grandma Pollards Chippy on the 3rd of August 1957, over 50 years ago, when her family were then introduced to the world of fish and chips and she added her expertise, i.e. home made pies and famous vanilla slices to the existing business of fish and chips.
Grandma Pollard and her husband Cyril had 4 children, Roy the eldest, Barbara the only daughter, Geoffrey and of course TONY the fish fryer today.
Her young family showed great interest in this business, and she therefore passed her knowledge onto all of them, and to this day her youngest son Tony is still at home on the range frying his fresh haddock and chips with a tasty dab.
Alan Hackett Sales & Commercial Manager of Nortech Foods said “This £10,000 car giveaway was our biggest yet! We were celebrating our 30 year anniversary with Superior in the trade. We had thousands of entries and when we picked out Tony we had no idea of how the story would unfold.”
Nice one Nortech and nice one Tony – a lovely story to start the year!
Driving Home for Christmas!

The world-famous Awards, which are to be held on 9th March 2016 in the Leicestershire town of Melton
Mowbray, are in their eighth year. The hotly coveted contest continues to grow in popularity, with last year’s Awards seeing a staggering 830 pies entered from 131 professional bakers, butchers and chefs - judged by 109 pie aficionados.
The Awards celebrate our nation’s love of pies – be they hot or cold, sweet or savoury. A few simple pie rules must be adhered to though: all pies are to be totally encased in pastry with a closed top, and fit into one of the pre-assigned classes. All pies, except the specialist class, must also be commercially available in the UK.
And new for this year, the Awards will now take place during British Pie Week (7th to 13th March). Matthew O’Callaghan, Chairman of the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie Association, said “We’re very much looking forward to another Awards celebrating the craftsmanship, creativity and innovation in pie making and what better time to do so but during British Pie Week its self.
“Each year we’re impressed by the fantastic calibre and number of entries – last year we had everything from Chilli Beef and Chocolate Pie to Wild Beaver Pie and Kangaroo and Ale Pie.”
A PIE FIT FOR HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN’S 90TH BIRTHDAY
Each year the British Pie Awards have a Speciality Class that encourages pie makers to get creative with their baking. For the 2016 Awards and in celebration of HM The Queen’s 90th birthday – bakers, butchers and chefs are invited to create a pie ‘fit for Her Majesty The Queen’.
Although judged to the same standards as other classes this class is all about the ‘wow factor’, with more decoration and freedom to choose filling and pastry type. It also does not have to be commercially available. HOW TO GET INVOLVEDEntry to the Awards is open now until 22nd February 2016. It’s open to anyone who sells pies commercially in the UK, with a special rate for companies with fewer than 10 pie makers. Full details of how to enter, as well as a full list of this year’s classes, can be found on the British Pie Awards website: www.britishpieawards.co.uk.
Awards Seek Pie-fection!
Pie perfectionists from all over the UK are now invited to enter the 2016 British Pie Awards.

The whole purpose of bespoke training is explained by Mark Petrou - one of KFE’s respected and
experienced trainers. “We recognised several years ago that some of our training
school candidates had mastered all the basics in their skill sets prior to attending or had a genuine desire to further extend their knowledge beyond our best practice and structured learning courses. Others had inherited bad practice from their entry into the trade and only knowing what they knew was limiting them to never being able to evolve beyond that. At KFE, we are a family of master fryers who are passionate about raising standards and sharing knowledge. Having hundreds of years of expertise within the KFE group of customers, we approached Paul Williams - and suggested that we could harness this environment as a resource and he was on board straight away!”
On course for frying excellence
There are many reasons why a professional person may wish to seek out training from
experts in their field. Whether entering the fish and chip industry as a novice OR already as
an accomplished “high fryer” or somewhere in between, The KFE school of frying excellence
offers bespoke one to one training sessions as well as structured courses to meet the needs of
modern frying operators.
Chippy Chat & Fast Food Magazine • January 201631 Chippy Chat & Fast Food Magazine • January 2016 31
KFE-Garry/Nigel-Half A4 Ad.indd 1 13/11/2015 13:44
Now, clients can contact KFE with a specific training requirement to receive bespoke support and KFE will approach it in several unique ways.
1KFE will appoint one of their trainers to liaise with the client to agree the best route to meeting the training need. - That may be a visit to the clients shop, the client visiting the purpose built training facility at KFE HQ in Market Deeping or a trip to a fellow award winning KFE customers shop to demonstrate how they have achieved the result that the client is looking for - or a combination of all three. The training solution is devised by networking within the KFE group and agreed by resourcing many experienced professionals and operators but delivered by one constant contact - your appointed trainer.
2Once the KFE trainer has agreed the training package, they will remain in contact with the client until the training package is delivered and beyond - ensuring that the support continues.
3KFE bespoke training is designed to be ongoing and ranges from practical and technical support like preparation, frying, oil management and portion control or even something simple like overcoming chips that fry with a blistered skin but it also extends beyond that into business and marketing with support in margin management, customer service and targeting social media. In fact the training is only limited by what the client can imagine and is NOT restricted to just users of KFE frying equipment.

Since the awards were established by Seafish back in 1988 they have
continuously grown and developed, making
their way into the hearts of thousands of fish
and chip businesses up and down the country,
and are now widely established as the
‘Oscars’ of the fish frying industry.
Growing from a single award category in the beginning to there now being 14,
they showcase a diverse range of categories that cater for every aspect of running a successful fish and chip business, recognising everything from traditional takeaways to mobile operators to excellence in training and responsible sourcing.The annual awards year is a very busy one - from the judging of submitted entry forms and supporting portfolios to mystery shop visits and in-depth shop inspection audits, through to the judging of the final presentation, the quality of our nation’s friers shines through at every stage.The idea for the first Fish and Chip Shop of the Year Competition originated from the friers themselves in 1987. The first competition was respectively held in 1988 and Toffs of Muswell Hill, London, were crowned champions - becoming the first ‘best fish and chip shop in the UK’.Since then there have been 27 winners of the flagship Independent Takeaway Fish and Chip Shop of the Year, ranging from the Halfway Fish Bar in Dorset to The Bay in Aberdeenshire and Petrou Brothers in Cambridgeshire to Frankie’s Fish & Chips in Shetland – all points of the compass!Comments attributed to Fred Capel of Chez Fred in Bournemouth, Dorset, winner of the Independent Takeaway Fish and Chip Shop of the Year Award in 1991.

Oscar goes to… “The awards judging criteria is extremely robust – it’s outstanding. It really opens your eyes and makes you pay more attention to things about your business that you wouldn’t have even considered before. With this sense of clarity, you strive for greatness and have this amazing determination to succeed and make your shop the best that it can be.“We became the fourth winner of the national title in 1991, but back then there was just one award category up for grabs, now there are over a dozen different categories. This just shows how much the awards have developed and diversified over the years, honing in on topical issues to continually raise industry standards.“The Good Catch – The Sustainable Seafood Award is a perfect example; with food provenance and sustainability in the forefront of consumers’ minds, this award category recognises fish and chip businesses that are leading the way in the sourcing and promotion of responsibly sourced sustainable seafood.”Comments attributed to Mike Pili, Training Manager at Midlands Seafish Industry Training Association (MSITA) and the longest serving judge for The National Fish & Chip Awards.“Being a judge for The National Fish & Chip Awards is a privilege, every year is different and I remember each journey individually.“Throughout my time I’ve judged hundreds of shops covering the length and breadth of the country, from Plymouth in the south west of England to the Shetland Islands in the far north of Scotland where the current champions Frankie’s Fish & Chips are based. “It’s been remarkable to see how the standards have developed and improved over the years and being able to witness that first-hand has been a very special experience for me.“I think much of the positive change in the UK fish and chip industry can be attributed to the awards; every frier has their eye on the prize and wants nothing more than to win that trophy to proudly display it in their shop.
“The awards really are the ‘Oscars’ of the fish frying world. It’s so important we continue to hold them as they provide an excellent opportunity for individuals and businesses to put their skills and knowledge to the test, and gain much deserved recognition. “They also play an important role in assisting to raise quality standards and provide a benchmark for businesses to aspire to. But most importantly, they support the UK fish frying industry and help us reinforce its reputation as the home of the world’s best fish and chips.”With a variety of unique award categories, The National Fish & Chip Awards are recognised as one of the most prominent and respected seafood industry events in the UK.The 2016 National Fish & Chip Awards will take place on Wednesday 20 January at the Lancaster London Hotel, where champions across all award categories will be crowned. 2016 award categories

By Matthew Grindling
PROFESSOR SPUD
Use Diastix to learn the sugar content of the potato, which will then advise you of the chips frying colour. To produce consistent golden colour chips the potatoes should contain no more than 0.25% sugar.
Prepare your potatoes using the “little and often” technique,this will reduce the amount of water within the potato.
Wash the chips twice before treating with Drywite.
Use the correct dosage of Drywite, Starch Doctor or All Seasons as per the supplier's instructions.
When using Starch Doctor or All Seasons to reduce the starch levels , use warm water as this will help to draw excess sugars and starch levels from the chips.
Allow the chips to “Air - Dry” for at least an hour prior to frying. Cold room temperatures increase the drying time of the chip.
Don’t overload pans when frying chips; this will reduce the frying temperature, resulting in a sub-standard chip.
Regularly check your frying temperatures to ensure the probes in the pans are reading correctly.
Sieve your pans after each fry which will assist you in reducing the carbon content and prolong the life of your frying medium.
Use a reputable frying medium, one that is capable of producing deliciously tasty fish and chips consistently, whether trade is sporadic or frantic.
The annual Jan /Feb reduction in trade can come as a "shock to the system" and catches so many of us out. For some the quieter trade can result in hot oil standing idle which deteriorates and carrying excess raw materials into the next day.
The best practice is to use the "little and often" technique to continue being an outstanding fish fryer constantly achieving a cooked product that is fresh and tasty regardless of the time of year… and extending the life of your oil.

The Fryers’ Favourite For Over 60 Years.
My top Ten Chipping Tips to help prevent oil deterioration
One of the most common questions from fellow friers in January and February concerns the deterioration of their frying medium. I would normally advise that this is due to a combination of increased starch and sugar levels within potatoes and a lower level of business.
STARCH / SUGAR LEVELS
A potato normally consists of 80% water, although this may vary depending on the variety of potato you are using. The rest is made up of starch and a small amount of sugars.
Excess starch is a major cause of oil deterioration, particularly during the winter months. The higher the sugar the darker the chip becomes and the the faster the oil deteriorates.
The more information that is known about the potato tuber and the best means of taking care of it, the better the likelihood of an extension of the life of the oil and an improved end product.
CORRECT STORAGE
A potato naturally produces starch to keep itself warm. The starch will convert to sugars when stored below 10ºC and particularly so when stored below 6 ºC. Consequently, it is best not to store potatoes in a cold room or against an outside wall.
REMOVAL OF STARCH
Starch must be thoroughly washed off the chips in order to preserve the frying medium and maintain the quality of your cooked chips. Chipped potatoes should be washed twice before using Starch Doctor or All Seasons. Warm water can help to reduce the starch and sugar levels because it will draw the sugars out of the potatoes.
LOWER LEVELS OF TRADE
It is much easier to be an outstanding fish frier when trade is brisk. The constant flow of business keeps ingredients fresh and the oil is being regularly topped up and refreshed. Hot oil standing idle deteriorates as the absence of a ‘steam blanket’ allows increased oxygen to enter the pans and degrade the oil.
‘LITTLE AND OFTEN’
When preparing potatoes during these quieter months it is better to use the ‘little and often’ technique. This will enable you to keep your potatoes fresh and not stored in water for unnecessary, lengthy periods of time.

Ask them for their signature chippy dish - a fish cooked in chip batter!
The Roswell version of the Big Ketch emerged from the demolition and complete remodel of a 1950s brick house, which doubled the square footage and added parking in back. Inside, the airy, vaulted space is divided between adjoining dining rooms and a large bar room adorned with mounted fish and maritime curios.
Executive chef Derek Dollar, who leads the kitchen at Milton’s Cuisine & Cocktails, put together the sizable “beach chic” menu, which not surprisingly focuses on seafood but also features a surprising number of seemingly healthy offerings.
There’s the Bowl of Brussels starter ($6.95) with herbs, veggies and crunchy rice noodles, and signature Mediterranean and Asian low-cal salad bowls ($6.95) with quinoa. Fresh fish plates ($15.95-$24.95), including salmon and grouper, are available grilled, blackened or jerk-style.
Of course, there are other choices, too, including Fish IN Chips ($13.95), which means beer-battered cod, rolled in kettle-cooked potato chips and deep-fried, and the Steak Burger Royale ($10.95), a hefty half-pound blend of ribeye, tenderloin, New York strip and chuck with grilled onions, American cheese and pickles.
New menu items unique to the Roswell location will include spicy conch fritters, a grouper Reuben, a Charleston curry seafood bowl, and jerked pork chops with caramelized pineapple. Favorites from the Buckhead location, such as basil-Blue Moon mussels and the Big Ketch grouper sandwich, will be on the menu, too.
Fish ‘IN’ ChipsBy Bobby Nicole
In late October, Southern Proper Hospitality Group opened a
second location of its popular Buckhead restaurant, the Big
Ketch Saltwater Grill, on busy Canton Street in downtown
Roswell Georgia USA.
Chippy Chat & Fast Food Magazine • January 201646
The Big Ketch Bowl of Brussels is hot brussels sprouts, fresh basil & cilantro, crunchy rice noodles, carrots julienne, savory teriyaki, crushed macadamia nuts. At the bar, snack on market-price oysters on the half shell, lump crab and lobster cocktail with citrus-basil sauce ($16.95), hush puppies with remoulade ($2.95/$4.95) and Beach Balls, “surf and turf” bacon, shrimp and green onion fritters with key lime mango sauce ($8.95).
On the beverage menu, find a good selection of local beers on drafts, including Copperhead American Amber ($6.50) from Roswell’s Gate City. The price-tiered cocktail list ranges from House Drinks ($5), Boat Drinks ($7.50) and Yacht Drinks ($9-$10). Peach Perfect is a mix of Angels Envy bourbon, peach puree, mint, citrus and honey liqueur.
Lunch is served Fridays-Sundays with lower prices on entrees and sandwiches.
