Burch & Purchese Dishes - 18 Pinenut Cream With Gingerbread, Green Tea & Yuzu




Unusual flavour pairings that combine to create a sensational mouthful. Spiced and dried gingerbread, sharp and tangy yuzu as well as fragrant green tea all marry well with the nutty mousse. Toasted pinenuts, raspberry mayonnaise and chocolate clay garnishes add contrasts in flavour and texture as well as showcasing new techniques in cooking.

Hey guys... saw in the NYT's that the big thing in Miami is pop tarts... they mention yuzu pop tarts (as well as the more regular blackberry) Frank Bruni just swoons for them... Chez Pim had a recipe for pop tarts awhile back... go yuzu!
