a great gift for all cooks and gourmets have done two cooks-revolutionary, an innovator in the culinary arts, Ferran adrià and Heston Blumenthal. The Spaniard recently publishes regularly in his Twitter videos, which personally prepares simple but gastronomic dishes (e.g. noodles with mussels and mint soup with melon, figs with cream, etc. – a total of 90 lessons), while explaining every nuance of the process. Also, Ferran Adria examines in detail some cooking techniques, talks about the creative approach to food and reveals the unexpected quality of the products that are in every kitchen. All the “training” absolutely free. The only possible negative for Russian followers – the language barrier.
In turn, the British experimenter Blumenthal is divided into Instagram recipes of their signature dishes, which brought him fame. Already published detailed instructions on the preparation of the legendary “butcher of Mandarin,” lemon tart, a dessert of molasses, Scotch eggs with mustard mayonnaise.
Dinner by Heston was created based on British History. One of the key recipes that we found was for Pome Dorres. On the next page is the original recipe from c.1430.l, followed by the recipe for our Mandarin Meat Fruit. Bit challenging but if you have the time, worth giving it a try! #Heston #HestonBlumenthal #DinnerbyHeston #Meatfruit #London #History #Todaysfact #MichelinStar @MichelinGuide
Another popular winner of Michelin stars Italian Massimo Bottura organized video diary “Kitchen quarantine.” He prepares every evening available meals from simple ingredients (from the basics type of Bechamel sauce to the cheesecake with raspberries and balsamic vinegar) together with his wife Lara Gilmore and son Charlie live broadcasts are held in the home kitchen without a rehearsal. Sometimes Bottura also connects to process his eminent colleagues from other countries.
do Not lag behind Western chefs, Russian chefs, quickly organized on their pages in social networks master classes. So, one of the leading chefs of Russia, the popularizer of Russian cuisine abroad Vladimir Mukhin leads esters with the stars, where the contents of their fridge and available equipment teaches you to think outside the box and use products in a completely new way. For example, the chief showed how from buckwheat to make ice cream in a waffle cone (also from buckwheat), learned to make preserves from melon rinds and a quick Apple chutney and cook the meatballs in breadcrumbs from stale bread. A colleague of Vladimir on the restaurant holding Anatoly Kazakov demonstrates how to make the perfect ribs at home without a Texas smoker at hand. The same lessons can now be found in the pages of practical��ski every Russian chief.
the Brothers Ivan and Sergey Berezutskiy during this period also engaged in educational activities. The chiefs have posted lectures from world scholars and practical classes with chefs who understand the important role of science in cooking. For example, the public appeared speech with translation into Russian language of Harold McGee – author of the monumental work On Food and Cooking: Science and Lore of the Kitchen, a must-read for everyone who wants to become a professional in the culinary business.
a time of Crisis teaches restaurateurs to think differently. The way out is to look for new points of sales, to somehow try to keep the business. Previous income restaurants do not have to wait, the revenues from shipping are minimal. And perfect shipping except for the segment of comfort food. So many restaurants of fine dining quickly reshaped. A vivid example – the Michelin three-star restaurant Alinea in Chicago. The team completely rethink your dining experience. It is assumed that at the time. Usually there offers a theatrical spectacle, where the hero was the food (sugar balloons, food-spattered canvas, aromatouch etc.). Now chef Grant Achatz preparing dinner not for $ 300, and takeaway for 34,95. Of course, it’s easier. Alinea co-owner Nick Kokonas wrote on Twitter that the option To Go was created exclusively to preserve at least some jobs. Example Alinea followed by many. Russia is also quickly able to navigate. For example, the group leading the capital’s restaurants together with the service “Yandex.The food is” organized and launched the project “GASTROSET home” – where a set of business courses from the main gastronomic areas of Moscow is offered at a reduced fixed price.
an Interesting trend, which appeared because of the pandemic, this online restaurants. It turned out, too. As a rule, they pass according to two scenarios. First – on the house comes a set of products (sliced, pickled), and at the appointed hour, you will need to join the airwaves to themselves to cook along with the chef. The second home is delivered ready-made set, with which party dinner aired to the chief and other guests.
a New round of popularity received gift certificates by which you can support a favorite institution in advance – so buy a voucher now and use after the removal of the regime of isolation and quarantine. But they work only in institutions with well-established client base of regular visitors. One direction – week subscription to meals. For example, the Moscow chief Alena Andreasyan for a certain amount sends subscribers a box with seven desserts for every day of the week.
every day more and more restaurants, cafes and coffee shops in the world cook a meal for those�� who are fighting with the coronavirus in the front line – doctors and health care workers, social workers and police officers. One of the pioneers of the movement was award-winning American chef (of Swiss origin) Daniel Hamm. April 1, two weeks after the closure forced the layoffs of staff, he again opened the kitchen of his restaurant Eleven Madison Park in new York (as well as Davies and Brook in London), and now every day a small staff and volunteers produce and deliver almost 3,000 lunch boxes for all those directly involved in the fight against coronavirus. Menu – chicken legs with couscous, Bolognese, braised beef cheeks, vegetables. “Our kitchen was built for a different, but as times have changed, we must change with it,” commented Hamm a decision Instagram.
Where did the ducks go.. our kitchen was built for something else but as times have changed we need to change with it. @rethinkfood.nyc #makeitnice #makeitnicetogether
In Europe, held a charity campaign “Feed the heroes.” The movement originated in Germany but quickly went out of the country. Through donations of the citizens of chef free cook to doctors and police officers. One of the restaurants in Berlin, collected for this purpose 20 thousand euros. And in Italy holders of Michelin stars cater also to the construction of the quickly erected hospitals.
the Russian doctors also endorse. So, providers “specialty” coffee Roasters Rockets launched the campaign “Coffee doctors” and deliver grain refreshing drink in the medical institutions of the capital, leading the fight against COVID-19. Involved in the delivery of hot meals to the personnel of hospitals and many restaurants.
