Smooth Pear Surinagashi with Fresh Berries, Mikuni
Japanese pear, fresh berries, raspberry sorbet, sake yuzu consommé, grape wine jelly and almond crumble will do a tango on your tongue, as it did to senior lifestyle editor Justina Tan. Designed to look like an elegant Japanese garden, the delicate flavours and textures of each element is enlivened by a sake stock with shiso leaf and vanilla beans. Meanwhile, the smooth grape jelly provides textural contrast with the crunchy almond crumble. “In traditional Japanese cuisine, dessert was always kept very simple, in the form of fresh cut fruit. This dish represents an evolution of time and culture, adopting a contemporary approach to classic Japanese cuisine,” says chef Keisuke Uno.
