Award-winning chef and television personality Ming Tsai is bringing his signature flavors to the frozen food aisle with the nationwide launch of Mings, a new line of frozen meals inspired by his modern approach to Asian cuisine.
Known for his James Beard and Emmy Award-winning work, Tsai has crafted a lineup that delivers bold, authentic flavors in just minutes, offering a convenient yet elevated dining experience.
“When a simple fried rice dish I made at 10 years old put a smile on my friends’ faces, I realized that food has the power to bring people happiness, which ultimately inspired me to become a chef,” said Tsai. “Now I’m channeling that joy with Mings frozen meals. I’m excited to bring these dishes to homes nationwide, all without the hassle of cooking and cleaning, whenever you’re hungry for delicious, authentic Asian food.”
The new product line focuses on noodle-based dishes infused with rich umami flavors. Among them is Spicy Dan Dan Noodles, featuring wheat noodles and ground chicken tossed in a fiery Sichuan-style red sauce. Another offering, Spicy Beef Ramen, combines ramen noodles with seared steak, bok choy, green onions, and black-and-white sesame seeds in a spicy beef broth. For a more savory option, Chicken Ramen includes seasoned dark meat chicken, bok choy, and sesame seeds in a traditional chicken broth. The final dish, Sweet Chili Chicken & Broccoli, blends rice noodles with a sweet and spicy chili sauce, complemented by dark meat chicken, broccoli, and colorful bell peppers, finished with sesame seeds.
The launch reflects a growing demand for globally inspired flavors in the frozen food category. Mings aims to provide an accessible alternative to takeout, offering restaurant-quality Asian dishes that require minimal preparation. Holly Honroth, Senior Brand Manager for Mings, emphasized the product’s market appeal, noting that today’s consumers are eager to explore new global flavors without the time commitment of home cooking or the expense of ordering out. She highlighted that the frozen meals deliver an ideal balance of taste, texture, and convenience, making them an exciting addition to the freezer aisle for both adventurous food lovers and spice enthusiasts.
With its nationwide rollout, Mings is positioning itself as a game-changer in the frozen food space, bridging the gap between convenience and culinary authenticity.
