THE FOOD
The Dinner was a kindred collaboration with online grocery shopping powerhouse, Honestbee, making lives convenient during the holiday season. Meat & salmon were elevated and showcased for you to make in your own Home (See recipe guide).
Delicate items such as white Wine jellied Liver pate, popovers, cured lavender salmon, and smoked fish pate, were first impressions (See recipe guide).
For the main course, a deep fried Sriracha Turkey was immersed in peanut oil, and wild bouche sage stuffing with roasted chesnuts were a fingerling delight.
A traditional baked turkey cooked for 15 Hours was served with a spiced fresh cranberry & mustard seed jam, with a unique stuffing of pecans, prunes, dates, smoked sausages and mushrooms that necked the cavity of the bird. A sous vide rib-eye was cooked in 62.5degrees for 8 Hours, seasoned with fennel, anise seed and carrot & dill, then Pan fried in its juices. A red wine reduction glaze was chosen as a serving sauce.
Fine sides such as masa harina pouches (also known as pintos) were rendered with a recipe of local maize, chorizo and pulled pork. Some local greens in a sage butternut infusion completed the course.
