Argentina: Masters of Food and Wine Mendoza 2011

Comments Off on Argentina: Masters of Food and Wine Mendoza 2011

 

It was a great pleasure to be invited  to this beautiful event again this year. It is a great to be where food lovers from all over the world travel to one of the most important wine areas in South America, the city of Mendoza in Argentina famous for its Malbec. I had the honor to have cooked in the Vina Zuccardi.

I prepared a menu by using their local products, not the ones representing my country. I thought that is interesting to show our way of working and understanding this profession by using products that I had never used before. A big risk that I wanted  to take. This got me very close to the land of Mendoza and all the people who helped in the kitchen doing new things with their own products. A lunch for a 150 people was prepared, served and well appreciated. This was the menu:

Viscacha Consomme Bound with Chestnut Puree and Toasts with Viscacha Confit and with Candied Fig Vinaigrette

Grilled Sole Fillet, Leek and Potato Tagliatelle, and Bouillabaisse Reduction

Lamb Sirloin, Stuffed Endive, Pumpkin Marmalade, and Seasoned Mushrooms
