Aagrah Foods is celebrating a clean sweep of quality at the Great Taste Awards, after its Plain Naan was awarded two stars – meaning every product in the brand’s range now holds at least one Great Taste star.
The Yorkshire-based family business, known for bringing authentic, restaurant-quality Kashmiri flavours into homes across the UK, secured the latest accolade for its Plain Naan, recognising the quality, flavour and craftsmanship behind one of the brand’s most versatile products and adding to an impressive collection of Great Taste wins across its full range.
Organised by the Guild of Fine Food, the Great Taste Awards are among the world’s largest and most respected food and drink accreditation schemes, with products assessed through a rigorous blind-tasting process by a panel of industry experts.
A two-star award is given to products judged to be "above and beyond delicious", marking Aagrah Foods’ Plain Naan out as an exceptional product in its category. The win also gives Aagrah Foods a rare quality credential across the brand: every product it has entered into the Great Taste Awards has received at least one star, following blind judging by food and drink experts.
Made to offer the authentic taste and texture of a restaurant-style naan at home, the Plain Naan are hand-pulled and hand finished, allowing the air to create pockets for that lovely pillowy softness whilst the charred bits are intentional from a 400C oven. They can be served alongside curries and traditional dishes or used as a base for quick lunches, sharing dishes and family meals.
Shakil Hussain, co-founder of Aagrah Foods, said: “We’re incredibly proud to see our Plain Naan awarded two Great Taste stars, and even prouder that every product we’ve entered now carries at least one star.
“To have our entire range recognised through blind judging is a fantastic endorsement of the quality and consistency behind Aagrah Foods.
“Naan has been part of our family’s food for generations, and we love seeing people enjoy it traditionally alongside a curry or get creative with toppings and sharing dishes.”
The Great Taste Awards are recognised by consumers and retailers across the UK, with the distinctive black and gold Great Taste logo helping shoppers identify independently judged food and drink products.
