Working With Brands

Detailed Product Reviews Our Readers Trust

Our favorite way to get new products in front of our readers is through detailed reviews. We love checking out new and exciting equipment, ingredients and tools, putting them through their paces and sharing them with our readers. We only recommend products we think of highly and know our readers will love, which has built up a significant level of trust between us.

Major Flagship Product Reviews

We have worked with several major brands, including PolyScience, Nomiku, Anova, Gourmia and Bellini to review their flagship products. Our reviews have helped directly to sell hundreds of units to our readers, as well as indirectly to help the brands by exposing our fans to their products.

Kickstarter

We also have worked with many pre-goal Kickstarter companies during their funding pushes. By reviewing early prototypes we can get our readers excited about the product and drive pledges. For instance, we've worked with companies like Fini Cutlery, San Sebastian, and Frankfurter Brett to help them meet their funding goals.

Equipment Roundups

We also do many different equipment roundups that can highlight your product. Some examples are Sous Vide Torches, Sous Vide Machines, and Whipping Siphons.

In-Site Branding

We regularly use many of the products we review and test once the reviews are done. Our favorite products continue to appear in pictures and videos on the site as part of our daily preparations. Such as the Bellini, Gourmia, Anova, Fini, Sous Vide Supreme Sealer, Sansaire, and iSi Siphon.

If you have a product you'd like us to review, you can contact us at jason@afmeasy.com, on Twitter, or using our form. Or check out our other collaboration options.

Extensive Benchmark Tests

We have several major benchmark tests to measure your equipment and tools and see how they stack up to the competition.

Some examples are our general Sous Vide Machine Benchmark and the Energy Consumption Benchmark. We are also currently working on benchmark tests for whipping siphons, vacuum sealers, chambered vacuum sealers, sous vide torches, and several other equipment categories.

If you think your machine is the best-of-the-best, let us put it through its paces so our readers will be able to see how good it is. You can contact us at jason@afmeasy.com, on Twitter, or by using our form. Or check out our other collaboration options.

Event and Product Launch Coverage

Marketing events, product launches, and conferences depend a lot on getting the word of mouth out there. We love attending food-related events, learning from the experts, checking out the sponsors and then sharing what we've found with our readers. With more than 100,000 unique visitors per month to our blog it's easy for us to help spread the word to foodies around the country, not to mention taking advantage of our mailing list and social media accounts.

We enjoy covering all types of food-related events, from grand openings and new event spaces to conferences, food shows, and even places where fascinating products are being made. We live in New York City, and are happy to travel for the right opportunity.

The following are examples of some of the coverage we’ve delivered.

MOFAD Museum in New York City

We were asked to attend the grand opening of the Museum of Food and Drink in Brooklyn, including the opening presentations, the exhibits in the museum, and the dedication of the space.

Taste Talks Brooklyn

We attended the last two Taste Talks Brooklyn food and drink conference and reported back on several panel discussions and the all-star BBQ event. Our coverage was publicly praised both by Taste Talks and several of the panelists.

Breuckelen Distillery

During a limited open house, we toured the Breuckelen Distillery and reported back on their distilling philosophy and what makes them unique.

StarChefs International Chefs Congress

We have covered the StarChefs International Chefs Congress three different times. It is one of the largest gathering of chefs in the world.

Fresh Summit Convention and Expo

Jason was part of the team covering the Fresh Summit Convention and Expo in Anaheim, CA for Kitchen Play. With more than 20,000 attendees and 1,000 booths the team covered the upcoming food trends and highlighted the sponsor booths.

If you have an upcoming conference or event, a future launch, or a unique product that could use some additional press, we’d love to discuss what we can do in more detail. Just let us know at jason@afmeasy.com, on Twitter, or by using our form. Or check out our other collaboration options.

Advertising and Marketing

Sometimes the best way to reach a new audience is through advertising. Amazing Food Made Easy provides several opportunities brands can use to reach the more than 100,000 cooking enthusiasts that visit every month. We have worked with major brands such as PolyScience, Lipavi, and FusionChef.

Custom Guides, Books and Pamphlets

A favorite collaboration for Jason is to provide guides and recipe books for equipment manufacturers and resellers. Most people have a lot of questions when they purchase new modernist equipment. Providing guides and instruction books helps new users feel comfortable jumping right in - and gives prospective customers the confidence to buy it.

Including guides and recipe books with equipment can also increase your bottom line through markups. Jason has worked with several manufacturers and resellers in various ways, including:

• Creating custom guides, such as the recipe book Gourmia includes with every machine
• A rebranding of existing content, such as the Modernist Pantry branded version of his book that is included in all their modernist kits
• Pairing an existing book with equipment, like the whipping siphon book Creamright provides with their siphon kits
• Custom recipes for many brands, including the Gourmia iphone app and recipes for the Sous Vide Supreme and PolyScience

If you are interested in using any of our cookbooks you can contact for more information. For custom guides or general questions feel free to contact us at jason@afmeasy.com, on Twitter, or by using our form. Or check out our other collaboration options.

Content Creation, Recipe Development and Guest Posts

Many brands are looking for help generating content for their website or product packaging and Jason is happy to work with brands he respects.

Recipe Development

There are many ways this collaboration can take place but the most common is through recipe development. Jason has been developing recipes for sous vide and modernist cooking for more than 6 years and he can work with brands to develop custom recipes to meet their needs. He also has a large catalog of recipes he is willing to share with select brands.

Informational Articles

Jason can provide informational articles, either as guest posts online or as inserts to be shipped with equipment and tools. These articles can discuss how to use a piece of equipment, the science behind a certain technique, or other components your brand wants highlighted.

Interviews

Jason is also available for interviews, including for print publications, online or email Q&As, and podcasts.

Looking for something else? Jason is always open to discussing unique opportunities for collaboration.

Lean on Our Expertise to Grow Your Business

Many brands want to expand into areas of sous vide and modernist cooking, or just want to learn more about them. Jason and Amazing Food Made Easy have worked with many brands behind the scenes to expand their understanding of modernist techniques and how their brands can take advantage of them. This help can take the form of simple email exchanges, prototype spec'ing and vetting, creation of internal documentation, as well as in-person presentations on aspects of modernist cooking.

With a background in development at major corporations such as ESPN, Time Warner, and the NFL, as well as consulting for several early stage startups, Jason understands the needs of businesses, how products are developed, and how to approach and capture new markets.
