Nomo
Such inspiration.... whilst researching my next escapade into World Cup cooking I chanced upon a Danish restaurant Noma who recently knocked El Bulli off the world's best restaurant award.
René Redzepi, the head chef, believes in locally sourcing his food and surprise, surprise is a food forager..... local berries, vegetables, fish and the like..... the man even uses chickweed!
One of his most famous dishes is 'Vegetables in Soil' - baby carrots, radishes, leeks and celeriac served on 'soil' (actually a combination of malt flour, hazelnut flour, melted butter and beer). He takes challenging ingredients like pike, unripe elderberries and cabbage stems and concocts a beautiful array of dishes. Frankly anyone that can use my favourite vegetable as a child (cabbage stems) has to stand out for me.
Have a look at just some of the reviews of this wonderful Nordic Mad (danish for food).....
