Preparation Instructions

Herb-Roasted Shrimp Instructions

  • In a bar blender mix herbs, garlic, shallot, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to create a marinade. Blend until smooth. In a bowl toss the shrimp with the marinade, cover and let sit for 30 minutes. While shrimp marinates, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Once the shrimp has finished marinating place evenly spaced on a sheet tray. Do not let shrimp touch one other. Roast in the oven for 3-4 minutes, then remove pan from oven, flip each shrimp and rotate pan. Cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.

Fall French Lentils Instructions

  • Add olive oil to a pot and sweat mirepoix (onions, celery and carrots) until lightly caramelized. Add garlic, cinnamon, bay leaf and herb sachet, and cook on medium heat for 5-7 minutes. Deglaze pot for white wine and reduce by half; add remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer.
  • Cook lentils until al dente. To finish, add the last 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

Coconut-Turmeric Sauce Instructions

  • In a pot add coconut cream, water, ginger, garlic, shallot, potato, ground turmeric and sachet aromatics. Bring to a low simmer and let reduce by 25 percent. Continue to stir the sauce to prevent sticking. Once reduced remove sachet and add all ingredients to a high-speed blender (Vitamix or similar). Add salt, white pepper, and Banyuls vinegar, and blend a second time. Run through a chinois sieve two times, taste and adjust seasoning.
