THE FUSION PROCESS

Every Ethelia recipe begins with fresh ingredients sourced from trusted local farms close to our kitchen. We work directly with farmers to secure human‑grade meat, fish and vegetables that arrive to us chilled, never frozen, and within a few hours of production.

Short transport routes mean less time from farm to bowl and a smaller environmental footprint, while strict quality checks at intake ensure that only the freshest, safest raw materials go into our foods.

Once the ingredients are prepared, they are slow cooked at temperatures below 60°C for 3–4 hours using recirculating steam. This gentle, even heat is very different from the extreme temperatures used in extrusion; it protects delicate vitamins, amino acids, and natural fats while still ensuring food safety.

Think of it as the difference between a carefully simmered stew: flavour, aroma, and nutrients are preserved, and the result is a meal that’s easier to digest and closer to real home cooking.

After slow cooking, the mixture is cold‑pressed into natural bites instead of being blasted through an extruder. Cold‑pressing shapes the food at low heat and low pressure, so the nutrients protected during the cooking stage remain intact.

Finally, the bites are packaged using MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging), where we gently replace the air in the pack to keep the product fresh without artificial preservatives. The result is a highly nutritious, minimally processed food that stays naturally tasty and safe on the shelf until it reaches your dog’s bowl.
