Preparation
- Peel the tubers and grill them for 2 hours over oak wood. The outside should be completely charred.
- Then wash off the black skin until you are left with a nice brown caramelized layer.
- Slice the tubers into 2 mm slices on the slicer and prepare a tart tin or other mold. 4. Melt the butter.
- Line the baking tin with paper.
- Place the grilled tuber slices in a layer and brush with butter, season with salt.
- Repeat with all the slices. Place a second baking paper on the lasagna and weigh down with a weight.
- Bake for 45 minutes at 175°C.
- Let the lasagna cool down and portion.
- For the tuber cream with tonka bean, see step 2.
- For the tuber beurre blanc, see step 5.
- Roast the tonka bean in the oven and cut in half.
- Melt the butter in a shallow pan and add the celeriac slices. Season with salt.
- Braise for 5 minutes without coloring.
- Add the coconut milk and the tonka bean. Cover with a cartouche and cook for another 20 minutes.
- Remove the cartouche
- Braise the celeriac brunoise in butter.
- Sauté the eryngii until golden yellow in oil and add.
- Finely chop the chili and spring onion and add together with the garlic.
- Cook for five minutes.
- Deglaze with soy sauce and cook until the soy sauce has nicely evaporated.
- Fill the gyozas with the filling, blanch, and pan-fry.
- Peel the celeriac and cut into four slices.
- Char completely black on the barbecue.
- Grill on oak wood for at least 1 hour.
- Wash off the black from the root and finely chop in a blender.
- Blend the mushrooms with a pinch of salt in a blender.
- Then hang the mixture as hangop and collect the liquid.
- Gently bring the root puree together with the water, konbu, the mushroom liquid, and the garlic to a boil and cook for 1 hour.
- The broth clarifies itself. Strain and reduce the broth.
- Season with soy sauce and thicken with xantana for the jus. As a base for the root sauce, the broth does not need to be thickened.
- Use a melon baller to make small balls from the celeriac and place them in a strainer.
- Grill until golden brown over oak wood.
- Place in a vacuum bag with the butter and a pinch of salt and cook for 45 minutes at 82°C.
- Cool down and glaze the balls with yuzu beurre blanc.
- For the yuzu beurre blanc, see step 7.
- Cook the hibiscus with the water and reduce the liquid completely. This cooks and confits the hibiscus at the same time. Chop very finely.
- Chop the caper leaves very finely.
- Only cut the orange peel from the salted orange.
- Mix everything with the rest of the ingredients and let marinate.
- Make a beurre-blanc.
- Combine this with the white soy sauce, truffle oil, and yuzu juice.
- Serve the root vegetable balls with a spoonful of salty vinaigrette and extra root sauce.
- Finish with finely chopped black truffle, sweet and sour sea fennel, chive cress, chermoula oil, black garlic puree, and marigold.
- For the root broth, see step 4.
