Pieminister launches gravy fondue

Gravy becomes the main event at Pieminister with the launch of its fondue feast.  Designed for sharing, diners are invited to get their dunk on with a hot, steamy pot of rich, flavoursome gravy surrounded by a choice of delicious dippers, from free range British honey and mustard pigs, parsnip and kale fritters and onions rings to potato fries, Tenderstem broccoli spears and more.  

Jon Simon, Pieminister Founder and MD says “We experimented with all sorts of potentially dippable delicacies and found that some things that seem so wrong, turn out to be so right – take the halloumi chips for example.  Or our free-range British pork scratchings!  One of the qualities of our gravy is its velvety consistency, so you get a really decent coating on whatever you plunge into the pot”

“Our pie lovers’ passion for gravy flourished this summer when we launched our ‘It’s All Gravy’ pie feast with bottomless gravy, to raise funds for the Campaign Against Living Miserably.  Thanks to the endless jugs we poured, the feast soon became a best seller, raising over £10,000 for the charity in just a few months.  So we knew another gravy-based feast was worth exploring, but the reaction to our fondue idea on TikTok has blown our minds! Who knew gravy could stir up so much emotion!”

Available at selected Pieminister restaurants across England and Wales, including Pieminister Broad Quay and Stokes Croft, the gravy fondue costs £15 which includes a hot pot of gravy plus your choice of three dipper portions, with eight dippers to choose from.  Pieminister Classic Gravy is plant based and gluten free and with four GF dippers and five VG dippers, this new dish can be enjoyed by everyone.  It’s great on its own, as a starter or to accompany any of Pieminister’s award winning pies.
