]]>Marinades
Pickle juice makes an excellent marinade for all kinds of meats, poultry, or even tofu. The acidity in pickle juice helps tenderize the protein, while the salt and any spices will infuse it with a unique, tangy flavor. To use pickle juice as a marinade, toss it with a little garlic and your favorite herbs and spices, then soak your protein in the mixture for at least 30 minutes or overnight before cooking.
Salad Dressing
While using pickle juice to make salad dressings may sound unusual, the flavor profile of pickle juice is actually quite similar to capers, which are commonly sprinkled over salads or blended into dressings for a salty bite. To make your own pickle salad dressing, mix three parts olive oil with one part pickle juice along with some Dijon mustard, minced garlic, honey, and a little salt and pepper. The juice will serve as a replacement for vinegar to brighten up all kinds of veggies and pasta.
Cocktails
If you prefer savory to sweet and tend to go for dry drinks over sweet, fruity ones, play around with using leftover pickle juice to make fun pickle-flavored cocktails. One example is the famous Pickleback shot, which involves taking a shot of whiskey followed by a shot of pickle juice as a chaser. You can also try creating your own, such as by mixing pickle juice into a Bloody Mary or Martini.

]]>Flexitarianism
Don’t be intimidated by the name—because this trend is the opposite of intimidating. Flexitarianism, or semi-vegetarianism, is a diet that is primarily plant-based but allows for occasional meat consumption. Many people are adopting this approach to eating for health and environmental reasons. This trend has led to an increase in plant-based meat alternatives and vegetarian options on menus.
(@conny_kuechenfee)Sustainable and Local Sourcing
There is a growing awareness of the impact of food production on the environment, and many people are seeking out sustainably sourced and locally produced foods. Restaurants and food companies are responding by offering more locally sourced and sustainable options, such as seafood and fresh produce.
Comfort Food with a Twist
Comfort food has always been popular, but chefs are putting their own spin on classic dishes. Mac and cheese with lobster or truffle oil, gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches, and elevated versions of chicken and waffles are just a few examples of this trend.

]]>Pancake cereal became a viral hit on TikTok where tiny little flapjacks were placed in a bowl, covered in milk, and called breakfast. The trend gained over a million views on the social media platform. The dish looked delicious, prompting many ambitious cooks to try make their own.
But now, a Brooklyn-based company is taking the hassle out of it for you.
Belgian Boys, which is fully women-owned, has released a box of pancake cereal because breakfast truly is the most important meal of the day.
“The trend that set the internet on [fire emoji]!” the description reads. “Because that’s what happens when you combine two breakfast greats. Pancake batter cooked into drool-worthy, cereal-size pancake bites topped with butter, syrup, berries, or even a splash of milk. Is it cereal? Is it pancakes? We don’t care. We just knew it needed to go from our FYP to our fridge ASAP. Introducing Belgian Boys Pancake Cereal!”
With bright pink packaging, Belgian Boys’ Bite-Sized Pancakes are hard to miss. Due to a collaboration with Target, the mini treats can now be found in the refrigerator section of select Target stores.

]]>Chicken Sandwiches
Chicken sandwiches have been around for a long time, so no one is inventing the wheel. Yet, there are ways to elevate the humble dish that will make it one to watch this year. Spicy sandwiches are on the agenda, as are those that are fried, so break out the sriracha or jalapeños.
Alternative Sweeteners
Over the last few years, there has been a breakaway from sugar as an ingredient. That is expected to become more intense in 2023 with alternative sweeteners like maple sugar and coconut sugar likely to pop up in recipes and restaurants.
Southeast Asian
Lovers of Vietnamese food can rejoice as Southeast Asian cuisine is expected to be a big thing this year. You can also expect food from other countries like Singapore, Indonesia, and The Philippines to be popular.

]]>Cloud Bread
Cutting out carbs is super hard. If bread is something you have been craving on your low-carb eating plan, TikTok is here to help. Cloud bread requires only three ingredients—eggs, sugar, and cornstarch—to create a light, fluffy “bread” that kind of jiggles. And because this is TikTok, people have also added food coloring to make it as aesthetic as possible.
Butter Boards
A new spin on the charcuterie board, these will satisfy you as a butter lover or turn you into one. They involve spreading softened butter on a board and adding whatever toppings you like. They range from figs to flowers, micro herbs to honey. Get some crusty bread and indulge.
Salmon Rice Bowls
We all love sushi, but not all of us have the time (or skill) to make it. Enter the deconstructed version known as a salmon rice bowl. It involves combining cooked salmon (leftovers work wonderfully), rice, soy sauce, sriracha, and kewpie mayonnaise, and then scooping it up with dried seaweed sheets.

Botanical Desserts
If you love baking and flowers in equal measure, Pinterest’s rising “wildflours” trend is about to become your next obsession. According to their data, botanical baked goods will be going stronger than ever in 2023, from daisy, wildflower, and sage green cupcakes to purple floral cakes.
Mocktails
It’s pretty much impossible to find a list of food and drink trends that doesn’t feature mocktails, and Pinterest users love it as much as the rest of us. Non-alcoholic booze is all the rage on this social media platform, but so are cocktail garnishes and creative cocktail presentations.

Toronto York Region (@hungrysheepie)Ingredients:
- 1 cup sushi rice
- ¼ cup rice vinegar
- ½ tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound salmon, cooked and flaked
- 1 cup kewpie mayonnaise

- While the rice is cooking, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan and warm over low heat until the sugar dissolves, then set aside.
- In a bowl, mix the salmon, mayonnaise, and sriracha.
- When the rice is done, transfer it to a very large bowl. Sprinkle on the vinegar mixture and use a rice paddle or spatula to mix the vinegar into the rice while using a slicing motion. Fan the rice while mixing to dry it out slightly.
- Spread the sushi rice into an oven-safe baking dish and top with half of the furikake. Top with the salmon mixture and the remaining furikake.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the top begins to brown and bubble and the casserole is warmed through.

The list also included some pretty unexpected choices, such as oxtails and NY favorite The Suprême, which became a viral craze thanks to the Lafayette Grand Café and Bakery in New York.
