Heavy Cream 35%
Professional fluid cream is a pure marvel of physicochemical engineering. With 35% fat, it is the perfect candidate for "whipping" (crème fouettée). The mechanical whisk inserts air bubbles that the fat globules (partially broken by friction) surround and stabilize when cold, creating a solid foam. Conversely, heated in a sauce, its high lipid content protects the proteins from coagulation: it is the only cream that withstands rolling boiling without "splitting" (separating).
Kamado-Smoked Wagyu, Heritage Pork & Potimarron Parmentier
A gastronomic deconstruction of the traditional shepherd's pie. Wagyu chuck and pork collar are slow-smoked in the kamado to develop a bark rich in Maillard reactions, then braised until complete gelatinization of their collagen. Topping it off, a roasted potimarron mash, emulsified with rendered Wagyu fat, offers a silky texture and natural sweetness that balances the meaty intensity.
Vacuum-Compressed Strawberry Tart
A contemporary reinterpretation of the classic strawberry tart. Using the vacuum compression technique, the air within the fruit's cells is expelled and replaced by the essential oils of basil and lime, offering a meaty, translucent texture and an aromatic explosion without any heat alteration.
8-Hour Kamado Confit Lamb Shanks
A masterful interpretation of 8-hour lamb, where delicate cherry wood smoking in the kamado precedes an extremely slow braise. The collagen breakdown yields spoon-tender meat, coated in a rich jus, accompanied by a silky celeriac mousseline.
Modernist Butter Chicken & Saffron Basmati
Forget poultry dried out by long stewing. This modernist version uses the surgical precision of sous-vide cooking at 62°C to guarantee spectacular juiciness of the chicken, all coated in an ultra-silky Makhani sauce emulsified in a blender for perfect consistency, accompanied by a fragrant rice where each grain separates elegantly.
Blender Cryo-Emulsion Raspberry Ice Cream
A disruptive modernist technique to bypass the ice cream maker. By combining the action of a hydrocolloid to trap free water and the extreme shearing force of a blender on a deep-frozen base, we mechanically recreate the texture of a pacotized ice cream, ultra-silky and creamy.
