No muss, no fuss

SAGA Cooking Paper brings out the aroma of your cooking ingredients. The taste is more intense – and simply better. Serving food wrapped in the paper is an experience for all senses. The intense aroma of the food only escapes when the paper pouch is opened at the table.

Bring out the aroma

SAGA Cooking Paper is made from renewable raw materials from sustainably managed forests. It is biodegradable, compostable and can be incinerated.

A great dissappearing act

Cooking with SAGA papers means more natural vitamins and minerals are retained in the food. Thanks to non-stick properties of the paper, you can also avoid using unnecessary fat. As a result, you are simply cooking much healthier food.

Protect dishes and baking tins against dirt and sticky burns with SAGA papers. This means less detergent, water and energy – and less wear and tear of dishes. One quick rinse and your washing up is done.

SAGA Cooking Paper makes preparing and portioning food efficient and simple, whilst making cooking, baking and storing food easier. Large kitchens, restaurants and caterers can simplify the food preparation workflow and deliver more meals to generate more food revenue.

Goodies that are good for you

Down withwashing up

SAGA Cooking Paper has been specially developed for all types of professional cooking and baking. It is a unique, innovative brand inspired by kitchens throughout the world and created on years of experience.

The SAGA brand includes multipurpose food-grade and greaseproof cooking and baking papers,

deli bags and other products.

Greaseproof and wet-strong, SAGA paper makes food handling hygienic by protecting ovens and tabletops against food spills. When cooking or preparing food, you can also keep the ingredients apart by covering the chopping board or wrapping them in SAGA paper.

Cleanliness is next to tastiness

retains its shape. SAGA Cooking and Baking Papers can be used for all baking and confectionery, for example as a piping bag for cream and chocolate or a stencil for cakes and pies.

Lay on the cooking paper and season with salt and pepper.

Soak the dried tomatoes in tepid water or steam, as required, then gently express. Process the oil, bread and tarragon in a mixer to form a smooth mixture.

Spread the tomato mixture evenly over the salmon fillets. Cook in the fan oven at 180°C (200°C in the conventional oven) for approx. 8 minutes.

Aubergine and Tomato Gratin with Goat’s Cheese

Slice the aubergines, tomatoes and red onion.

Break (or cut) the goat’s cheese into small pieces.

Dry fry the aubergines in a frying pan on each side until golden brown. Prepare 4 SAGA boats (see page 12). Stack the aubergine, tomato, red onion slices and basil leaves alternately in the boats (just like stacking books on a shelf) and season with salt and black pepper every now and then.

Sprinkle the goat’s cheese on top and bake at 200°C in the fan oven (220°C in the conventional oven) until the cheese is golden brown.

TOP TIP: By using SAGA pouches, packages and boats, you can cater to individual tastes by leaving out or adding more ingredients.

Hakkari’ features sophisticated French cuisine with

ingredients being the priority elements. He also owns

and manages premises for the Culinary Institute where

cooking workshops and classes are held. In his busi-

ness, SAGA products are used daily in food prepara-

tion, cooking and serving, as well take-away products.

“With the help of SAGA Cooking Paper I’ve created

a completely new way to cook. Its versatility, ease of

use and innovativeness makes it a perfect partner in

the kitchen. The fact that you can put the cooking pa-

per into boiling water and cook food wrapped in it has

helped us create new and healthier dishes. Moreover,

how cooking and especially steaming food in SAGA

paper preserves the natural aroma, succulence and

freshness of the ingredients has dazzled us all.”

Restaurant Sa Garrafa, Spain

taurant in Formentera in the Balearic Islands. He also

has a home catering service for those who have little

time for cooking or would like to organise a special

dinner party. He believes in healthy cooking and has

“Cooking with SAGA is very exciting as we can retain

the flavours of the ingredients while boiling or baking

in an oven – in fact its versatility means it can be used

from preparation to serving. I’ve been able to develop

several traditional Mediterranean dishes that use the

paper as part of the cooking process whether it’s a

starter, main course or a dessert. And the best thing

is – once you’ve finished, everything’s clean!”

succession, the time pressure is considerably reduced

by using SAGA Cooking Paper. The response from

guests is decidedly positive as each guest has the

pleasure of opening the SAGA Cooking Paper at the

table. The smell and taste is an experience that could

hardly be more intense or more aromatic.”
