Hekos
Hekos has been making frozen Asian snacks in Broek op Langedijk for more than forty years. The spring roll comes out of the fryer crisp and light.
The story
Who's behind it
Hekos is based in Broek op Langedijk, in North Holland. It started small more than forty years ago, with a father at home working on flavors and textures until a spring roll wrapper came out right. Today it runs a certified production line around the same question as back then: how do you make an Asian snack that comes from the freezer and tastes as if it was just folded?
The company supplies restaurants and professional kitchens. The range runs from spring rolls and chicken karaage to bapao, mini snacks, dim sum and the original spekkoek. All production is in North Holland and BRC-certified, so every box matches the last.
The range
The spring rolls stay crisp after the fryer, with a dry, light wrapper. The filling is firm enough for a proper bite and stays intact on the plate.
Next to the classics there's a plant-based chicken spring roll for your vegan guests. Besides the original, the spekkoek comes in pandan and mango passion fruit.
Everything goes from the freezer straight into the pan, fryer or steamer. That saves steps on a busy night and keeps quality steady, even when staff changes.
In your kitchen
Serve the spring rolls as a full part of shared dining, with a dipping sauce you make yourself. Chicken karaage with something fresh and sour on the side makes a quick bar snack. The spekkoek in pandan or mango passion fruit gives you a dessert with very little work.
Chefβs tip
Fry the spring rolls straight from the freezer at 175 degrees. This keeps the skin crisp and the dough dry. Karaage works the same way: straight from freezer to fryer, and the crust keeps its bite.
