We’re celebrating some stunning Italian produce this month.
Winter tomatoes are just a little bit more sharp which pairs well with our Hand dived Orkney Scallops. We lightly dehydrate the tomatoes, make reduced very punchy and rich tomato fondue from the trim and a lighter gel from the juice and the seeds. Finished with fresh oregano and olive oil.
