I'm making a single ingredient bubble sugar tuile garnish in today's video. You can leave the tuiles clear, cook them a bit more so they are caramelized or add colour. I like to use them to add height to desserts because they look super pretty.
You seriously will not believe how easy this garnish is to make, it's one ingredient, glucose. Simply spread the glucose in a thin layer onto a silpat and bake at 300 F for about 30 min to an hour. This is a big difference but really depends on your oven and how quickly it cooks. Oddly the oven at the restaurant takes longer to cook these than my home oven does. So my advice is to just keep checking on the sugar and making sure it's not burning or over cooking.
Garnishes like these are really good to have in your repertoire because they can be pretty rapidly whipped up if you're ever in a pinch. Also they just look super cool. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCgLAneRhBg
This dish is comprised of edible fall leaves made from edible wafer paper that is coloured with food dyes (mixed with vanilla to dilute), and flavoured with butter, brown sugar and fall spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, allspice). Underneath the leaves is a spiced sweet potato cake, sour cream whip and a spiced maple caramel.

I had some overripe bananas on top of my fridge and I wanted to do something interesting to use them up before they went to waste. I wanted to see if I could turn bananas into caramel.

All you have to do is chop up some bananas and cook them on low heat, stirring occasionally until the bananas begin to caramelize. Once they have become a rich, dark brown, remove them from the heat and blend. Once smooth, store in the fridge or serve.

Here's a quick and simple recipe for making this beautiful fresh orange fluid gel for plating. Serve this with savoury dishes to give a sweet balance to things like duck or use on or in desserts to elevate or compliment flavours. The texture of the gel is super smooth and the flavour is light and fresh.
Fresh Orange Fluid Gel Receipe:
500 ml fresh orange juice divided
25 g sugar
Juice of 1 lemon (30-50 ml)
4 g agar agar
Method:
Juice fresh oranges until you have 500 ml of total juice. Pour 250 ml of the juice into a pot and reserve the remaining 250 ml for later. To the pot add in 25 grams of sugar and 4 grams of agar. Bring to a boil over medium heat for 1-2 minutes and remove from the heat. Add the juice of 1 lemon to the uncooked 250 ml of orange juice and then pour this into the cooked orange juice mixture whisking to incorporate.
Transfer to a shallow pan to cool in the fridge for 30 minutes. Once firm, transfer to a blender and blitz until smooth. Store in a container in the fridge for up to 5 days or transfer to a squeeze bottle for plating.

These coral or lace tuiles are a really great way to add height or interest to dishes. This garnish is stunningly beautiful but surprisingly simple to make.
Lace Tuile Recipe:
90g water
10 g all purpose flour
Food colour
Method:
Whisk all of the ingredients together until smooth. In a pan (size depending on your needs) coat the pan with about a mm or two of neutral oil with a high smoke point. I used canola. Wait for the oil to heat up then pour some of the tuile batter into the pan. Watch out as the batter splatters as the water leaves the oil. Cook for a few minutes until the bubbles subside and the surface of the tuile starts to look matte. The edges should also start to lift away from the pan. At this point take an offset or small pair of tongs or tweezers and gently removed the tuile. Place it on parchment paper to absorb excess liquid. You can colour these however you like, one popular method is using squid ink in these tuiles instead of food colour but they can be dyed essentially any colour you'd like.

This ridiculously overkill hot chocolate is covered in a layer of toasted marshmallow fluff. Both components are easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time for a group of people. This hot chocolate and marshmallow fluff recipe is perfect for the remaining winter days that seem to be holding on so tightly. Today I was freezing so this warmed me up a bit. Admittedly I hardly put a dent in the hot chocolate however because in the video I showcase a pretty massive portion. I'd probably cut it down to about a quarter or the size for normal service and even then that will be quite a sweet treat.

Here is a recipe for wholemeal bagels. I've been experimenting with different types of flour in my baking recently and love how these turned out. I also used molasses in mine which gave the flavour a little more depth and sweetness but if you have access to malt syrup that is the more traditional option.
Anyway hope you enjoy!

Today I'm talking about microgreens, what they are, how to use them and why use them. I love using microgreens as a garnish of course but you can also use them as salad green or flavourful addition to things like bruschetta, tapas and other dishes. Essentially the possibilities are endless because there are so many varieties. They add great height, colour and texture to food but depending on the type of green you purchase, for example arugula, cilantro, basil, radish or mustard micro greens all lend different flavour profiles.

Now that we've talked about how to use them and one or two reasons why, my next reason for using micro greens instead of other traditional salad greens (if the dish would work with micro greens instead of course) I like to use micro greens because the ones I get are sourced from a local farm that focuses on sustainable growing practices. They concentrate on creating local jobs, paying their workers a living wage and are doing a number of other really cool things, i'm not sponsored or anything I just think they are a great company doing awesome things so check out their link here

If I can sub in micro greens instead of regular store bought lettuce then I try to because I like supporting local businesses and especially companies like Greenbelt Microgreens that focuses on making the world and our community a better place.

I wanted to make a sort of Valentine's Day inspired dessert. This is a plum and amaretto rose tart, flavoured with almond extract and amaretto. Before anyone loses their minds, yes I did buy pre made tart shells. I make tart shells all the time to a point that if I'm being honestly, has really put me off wanting to make them. Also, making tart shells is really quite a basic skill and I wanted to get to the more interesting portion of the recipe. I think this makes a really lovely and unexpected Valentine's day dessert.

Another note, if I was serving this in a restaurant I would wear gloves while assembling, these are just for me so I didn't bother ( I also hate how the purple gloves look on camera).
