Preparation

Lobster (sous vide):

Leave the clause to simmer for 7 minutes in boiling water then call them in ice water. Place the tail on small metal sheets and then double vacuum with a little salt and Arbequina olive oil. Cook at 70 °C in the fusionchef water bath for 12 minutes sous vide, then place on ice.

Hummer canneloni:
Cut the onions into fine cubes and confit slowly on a low heat (approx. 1.5 hours). Blanch the tomatoes and remove the skin and seeds. Cut the flesh into small pieces and add to the onions, confiting together for approx. 1 hour.

Mix the confit onions, lobster cubes and Sea urchins. Add soy sauce, vinegar, lemon juice and ricotta cheese to taste. Soften the wan tan leaves in cold water (10 seconds), dry them briefly and roll the leaves with the mixture to form a cannelloni, 8 g per leaf.

Lobster stock:
Fry the lobster heads briefly in a pan. Fry the onions, leeks, garlic and mushrooms until they have a little color. Cut the tomatoes into small pieces and sweat in the pan. Add the lobster heads and deglaze with cognac. Infuse with the water, add the  kombu and parsley. Leave to boil for 8 hours, strain and reduce.

Beetroot purée:
Wash the beetroot. Wrap in aluminum foil with salt and cook for approx. 2 hours at 160 °C in the oven. Remove the stem and peel, and cut into small pieces. Cut the radicchio into small pieces and mix with the beetroot. Vacuum the mixture and steam in a steamer for 30 minutes at 100 °C to cook the radicchio. Add salt and sugar to the mixture to taste. Mix gently in the Thermomix and strain through a sieve.

Beetroot slices:
Wash and peel the beetroot. Cut to a width of 1 cm using a slicer and place the slices to each other in a vacuum bag. Vacuum with plenty of beetroot juice and steam in the oven at 100 °C for 1 hour. Leave to cool and cut with a ring to a diameter of 3 cm.  Place in beetroot juice until used.

Abalone (sous vide):
Take the abalone out of the shells and remove mussels and impurities. Tenderize gently and vacuum with nut butter, a little salt and lemon juice.  Cook at 82 °C in the fusionchef water bath for 6 hours sous vide. Leave to cool and cut into narrow strips.

Trout caviar:
Wash the caviar in cold water and dry gently with kitchen roll. Place in beetroot juice for around 12 hours for perfect coloration.

Radicchio powder:
Cut the inner hearts of the radicchio into small pieces and dry in a drying unit for two days at 60 °C. Then mix gently in the Thermomix and strain through a sieve.

Radicchio marinade:
Mix all ingredients and add orange and lemon juice to taste. Cut the radicchio into pieces measuring approx. 2x2 cm and marinade a la minute.

Hazelnut chip:
