I love the combination of savory and sweet. And I really like to surprise guests with a combination that they absolutely do not expect. And this crème brulée ‘ticks all those boxes’. It was a big hit at the restaurant’s Christmas dinner. And it might as well be at your home.

Jerusalem artichoke, it’s not an everyday vegetable. But it’s worth playing with in the kitchen. Its nutty taste, delicious structure and ability to easily adapt to its environment make it a fantastic vegetable. The vegetable garden we work with had a good harvest this year and we took advantage of it. Served here with delicious spring onion with star anise. And some crunchy hazelnuts and pine nuts fried in spicy pul biber. Talk about layers of flavor.

Zucchini becomes this hit of the night in one fell swoop when you serve it this way. Full of flavor, delicious tahina sauce on top, the spicy za’atar and then the crispy and clearly present sage on top. How delicious.

Celeriac served in a special way. And really nice, of course. The combination with the chutney is fatally tasty. It’s a small job, but you immediately put something festive on the table that is also delicious. So great.
