THE DISH:
Spiced Foie Gras Scotch Egg
Tequila Tropical Fruit Jam
PRIMARY INSPO
-Daniel is someone who I have met that loves to learn. He speaks more than 5 languages, cooks different cuisines and also loves to make drinks. I wanted to create a dish that really highlighted his love for cultures.
-Daniel lives in London and I wanted to build a dish off of an iconic British dish ; in this case Scotch Egg
SECONDARY INSPO
-In his content at the time, Daniel not only makes edible recipes, he also creates cocktails/drinks as well. I wanted to put both of those aspects into one dish. The use of tequila was a great way to showcase something used in drinks to be used in food
-Daniel is very into fitness, I got to workout with him and hanging out I learned that he also has a very high calorie intake and saw his signature post workout yogurt, fruit, protein granola meal. I wanted to create a dish that had the same elements (fruit, high protein, nutrient dense)
-Daniel is extremely detail oriented; whether it’s for his day job as an analyst, in his recipes or how he shoots & edits his content. This is why I wanted to create a dish that required great technique and attention to detail. Perfectly oozy egg yolk, set whites, cooked sausage, crispy crust, jammy but still chunky fruits and balancing all these ingredients & flavors.
