Oak House Kitchen has years of experience in this area and has done extensive research and developments in the kitchen and lab to simplify the approach to creating food and drinks for dysphagia diets. This has led to the creation of ORAL – A systematic method which allows you to easily identify unwanted textures and ensure that results are correct.

Use ORAL to Create Recipes for Dysphagia

Our ORAL method has been widely adopted in homes, care settings and hospitals, in the UK and around the world, as a simple and easy way to approach food and drink texture modification. We have seen phenomenal results for cooks and catering teams as they improve safety, quality and choice.
