Preparation

Kaffir lime oil:

Cobia (Sous Vide):
Cut cobia fillet into rectangles, season with “Waldgewürz Fichte” and salt, then let sit for 30 minutes. Drizzle with kaffir lime oil and allow to rest for 30 minutes. Seal in plastic film then cook for 15-20 minutes at 48 °C in the fusionchef Sous Vide water bath.

Dashi butter:
Bring water, kombu seaweed, bonito flakes and sweet lime leaves to the boil then steep for 20 minutes. Strain through a fine sieve then season with rice vinegar, mirin and shiro dashi before reducing slightly. Add butter to the stock.

Fennel cream:
Sweat fennel briefly in a little oil, add salt and then douse with Noilly Prat. Pour in a little stock and cook until soft. Place fennel, butter and cream in a mixer and blend until a fine cream is formed.

Hirter Morchel beer straws:
Heat Hirter Morchel beer and butter in a pot, add flour and process like a choux pastry. Place the mixture into a kitchen machine, add egg yolks and sepia, then use milk to achieve the desired consistency. Squirt onto a silicone mat in thin straws and bake at 160 °C for 6-7 minutes.

Andean potatoes:
Brunoise the Andean potatoes and suave chili, glaze with a little stock and butter, then season with salt.

Preserved lemons:
Julienne the preserved lemons.

Pickle juice:
Place sugar, water, vinegar, ginger and lemongrass in a pot, bring to the boil and allow to steep, covered for 1.5 hours.

Radish:
Peel the radish then cut it into 10 cm pieces. Cut off thin sheets then roll these up and cut off 2 cm thick strips. Place the rolls into hot pickle juice.
