Cuisine Solutions Assists Health Departments with Sous-Vide Cooking Regulations; Premium, Fully-Cooked, Frozen Food Manufacturer Comes to Aid of Top Restaurateurs and Health Departments.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. -- Cuisine Solutions, Inc. (AMEX:FZN) announced today that it has been in contact with the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene as well as other city health departments to assist them with the information needed to put formal regulations in place to govern restaurants that cook using the Sous-Vide method. "The Sous-Vide cooking techniques have quickly gained a tremendous amount of popularity amongst the elite chefs. So quickly, that some health departments are scrambling to put in place rules to oversee the cooking and storing of the food," explains CEO Stanislas Vilgrain. "Cuisine Solutions had been cooking with this method for over 17 years, and our Chief Scientist, Bruno Goussault, was one of the pioneers of this technique, so we are in a unique position to provide assistance."

Cuisine Solutions products are fully cooked and frozen, and in compliance with government HACCP guidelines, so restaurants can use their products with no issue. "As the leading producer of products cooked Sous-Vide in the US, we have been working with and training some of the top restaurant chefs in the US and France. We believe they are well qualified to cook with this method," explains Mr. Vilgrain. "With the growth in popularity, we agree it is very important that there are cooking standards for restaurant chefs to follow. This is an important step in the evolution of this method of cooking becoming main stream."

Cuisine Solutions utilizes the "Sous-Vide" technology and methods which means that the products, such as Lamb Shank with Rosemary Mint sauce, Seared Tilapia with Lemon and Green Peppercorn sauce, or Veal Osso Bucco, are vacuum sealed and then slowly cooked at very low temperatures immersed in water. The science behind Sous-Vide cooking involves knowing the precise time and temperature that food changes molecular structure. This enables Cuisine Solutions to cook the food for optimum taste, color, and texture. The result is restaurant quality food every time. The Company's Sous-Vide process also pasteurizes the product and kills all vegetative forms of bacteria, and as the food is sealed in a bag, it is not handled after it is cooked -- until you open it to heat and serve. As the products are immediately flash-frozen, there is no need for preservatives in the product. Most of the Cuisine Solutions products have a guaranteed 18 month shelf life. Cuisine Solutions products are sold in retail outlets as well as to hotels, convention centers, sporting venues, first class on airlines, trains, and ships, restaurant chains, the military, and more.
