Melanzane Sott’olio Eggplant Antipasto from Connie’s Kitchen

Sep 18, 2020 | In The Hills | Recipes

Many of Connie Arteaga’s long list of handmade preserves – think passata or eggplant antipasto – have their roots in her native Sicily.

The final dish looks like a minimalist painting, including a swipe of garlic maple purée, crumbles of bacon and toasted brioche atop wisps of bitter greens. James insists I sample everything in each bite to balance the buttery torchon. He’s right. Tiny cubes of jellied Champagne are almost invisible on the plate, but pop in my mouth.

Foie Gras Torchon

At the Millcroft Inn & Spa, executive chef James Buder uses maple syrup in his foie gras torchon.

In a sauce pot, mix pickling spice, garlic, sugar, water and red wine vinegar. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Let cool for 5 minutes. Place red onions in a dish and pour pickling liquid over until just covered. Set the dish in the fridge for 10 minutes. Photo by Pete Paterson. Styling by Jane Fellows.
