Whipped Base, Candied Walnut, Gold Leaf
A composed plate of whipped cream base, candied walnuts, crisp shards and gold leaf, finished with violas.
This is a plate about texture and restraint. The base is soft, the walnuts are hard and sweet, the shards are brittle, and nothing overlaps more than it needs to.
Gold leaf is a decision that has to be earned by the rest of the plate, or it just looks expensive.
