Heinz North America, an affiliate of the H.J. Heinz Company (NYSE:HNZ), launches its new consumer Web site, www.heinzflavor.com, today. For the first time, Heinz has opened the book on its exclusive recipe collection and is now offering it online. The site focuses on America’s favorite recipes, demonstrating how the addition of an essential ingredient or two can raise the flavor profile of a meal. Meatloaf, for example, can be more savory with the addition of Heinz 57 Sauce, or spicier with the addition of Heinz ketchup, but the core recipes remain basically the same. More than 300 recipes are available with multiple categories from which to choose.
Heinzflavor.com is a key element of the new Heinz Adds Flavor(TM) Portfolio program and offers personalized cooking tips and recipe makeover ideas for everyday meals addressing every family’s flavor moods.

Mealtime can sometimes be difficult for busy families, and kids spend a great deal of time online. Hannah and Luke Heinzstein, the clever chef/scientists on the Heinzsteins'(TM) pages, provide a chance to involve kids in dinner planning. Because kids are participating in mealtime, often preparing the meals, the Heinzsteins provide simple kid-tested recipes. Kids can also learn about ketchup use around the world, EZ Squirt, ketchup fun facts and participate in interactive polls.
“Heinz products such as ketchup, broths, sauces, gravies and even vinegar are the secret to enhanced flavor in many meals,” said Brian Hansberry, vice president of marketing for Heinz North America’s Ketchup, Condiments and Sauces business unit. “Our research shows that people feel differently about flavor on different days. One day, they may want something spicy; on another day, they may crave a sweeter, saucier dish. This Web site helps people discover recipes that add the flavor of their choice to everyday meals and gathers our flavor-makers into one resource for the home cook.”
The Heinz Adds Flavor(TM) Portfolio includes Heinz tomato ketchup, Heinz Gravy, College Inn broths, Heinz White Vinegar, Heinz Apple Cider Vinegar, Heinz Gourmet Wine Vinegar, Heinz 57 Sauce, Heinz Chili Sauce and Heinz Worcestershire Sauce.
