Anniversary dinner was a success. Beyond rich, beyond expensive, and beyond amazingly tasteful. Here we go!
Homemade baguette that was sliced to 1/4th. Brushed with an extra virgin olive oil and clarified butter reduction. Then toasted. Spread on was a dill and chive Greek yogurt.Topped with salmon that was beech wood cold smoked for 3 hrs. That was topped with black caviar and garnished with 24 karat gold leaf.
Up next was a 10 hour simmered lobster stock using 2 full lobsters. Then immersion blended using carrots, onions, and celery instead of traditional rice. Pureed into a bisque. Centered is lobster meat that was butter basted with tarragon and parsley. Sprinkling of cayenne pepper overtop the dish.
Last was a parmesean and lemon infused risotto using arborio. This was topped with king crab cakes stuffed with basil and leeks. Hand molded and drizzled with lemon juice while topped with chopped chives.
