This dish is a great representation of the collaborative environment that I try to foster at Stella. Pulling influences from different backgrounds, cultures, and styles is what we're constantly striving towards.
Simple vegetable stock recipe.
There are two kinds of veal stock; brown and white. The only differentiating factor is whether or not the bones are roasted. The decision to roast the bones is dependent on the final application of the veal stock. If you are making a traditional Veal Veloute, a white veal stock is needed.
Tomato Vierge is a simple yet flavorful emulsion of tomatoes, aromatics and oil. It is most notably missing egg, which makes this preparation much lighter then it's sister sauce, aioli.
An aromatic and refreshing vinaigrette that works great on a hot summer day. The pungent punch of the Thai Basil paired with the sour of rice wine vinegar and sweetness of honey yields a full flavored salad dressing
This recipe is from my days as Executive Chef at an Asian-Fusion restaurant that also served sushi. It was a crab mix that went inside of a sushi roll that was topped with sliced hamachi and orange aioli. After leaving this restaurant, I was so burnt out on sushi that I swore I'd never make it again.
This recipe was originally developed as a dipping sauce for our Thai Style French Fries served at Stella. This peanut sauce is a little thicker then normal and has a nice little kick to it. It will also go great with chicken, beef or pork, especially satay. Recipe yield is calculated in grams to make scaling easier. See notes section for portioning info.
This recipe is a great way to use your left over salmon scrap after you butcher a side down into fillets. The salmon is pureed in a food processor with a flavored cream and then baked in a terrine mold. The finished product is a slice-able yet spreadable pâté that works great as an appetizer or canape.
