-
-
Pickled Wood Sorrel
-
Sourcing Note: Wood sorrel (Oxalis acetosella) can be found in wooded areas with acidic soil or purchased from specialty herb growers.
-
Ingredients:
- 1 cup wood sorrel leaves
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 1 bay leaf
-
Instructions:
- Rinse and dry wood sorrel leaves. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, water, sugar, salt, peppercorns, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool. Pour the pickling liquid over the wood sorrel leaves and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
-
Assembly:
- Begin by creating a base layer of "soil" by dusting a generous amount of the forest floor soil mixture onto the center of a large white plate.
- Using a piping bag or a squeeze bottle, create small mounds of mushroom espuma around the edge of the soil, representing the mycelial network.
- Arrange pickled wood sorrel leaves on top of the soil, mimicking the growth of plants in the forest.
- Sprinkle marinated pine needle crumble over the soil and around the espuma mounds to represent the pine needles and other debris found on the forest floor.
- Using a teaspoon, carefully place small droplets of fermented pinecone tea around the plate, allowing it to pool in some areas and create the illusion of rainwater.
- Finally, garnish the dish with edible flowers, microgreens, or other garnishes that complement the forest theme.
Wine Pairing Suggestion: A full-bodied, earthy red wine such as a mature Burgundy or a cool-climate Pinot Noir would complement the complex flavors and textures of this dish.
This innovative dish, "Whispers of the Forest Floor," combines unusual ingredient pairings, advanced culinary techniques, and exquisite plating presentation to create a truly unique and memorable dining experience. Each component tells a story, and when combined, they tell the story of the intricate ecosystem that exists on the forest floor.
