Terrine of rabbit with melon- & asparagus salad
and shallot vinaigrette

Tonight we cook our rabbit as a terrine. With more elegance we want to create exquisite harmony in tastes to the rabbit's natural mild sweetness. We prepare the terrine well-seasoned with balanced tastes of Dijon mustard and herbs. I want to sense just a tiny little bit of the shallot's shamelessly pushy tastes to the terrine of rabbit. Sense. Never let the shallot take over. That's why I give the shallot a companion in vinaigrette, sharply acidic with distinct bergamot aroma. And the shallot tastes become balances to the smooth rabbit. The Ewe's Milk Yoghurt characteristics of fresh acid, mild but still rich and creamy, tie effectively the dish together.

Baked halibut, langoustine sauce
and savoy cabbage sautéed in dill

Lightly salted halibut, baked in its own juices, provides high pitched and pure fish tastes. Baking the halibut brings a high degree of juiciness. The creamy sauce is rich in tastes of umami, and has a lot of crayfish character. The cognac adds richness to the sauce, and the crème fraiche provides a fresh acid. The potatoes have pure and full aromas of thyme. And the savoy cabbage provides al dente, fresh and herbaceous tastes.

Almond sponge cake with piña colada sauce
and rum sherbet

An international drink - the Piña Colada - inspired me to this evening's dessert. Why limit yourself only to sip a Piña Colada? Why not eat a Piña Colada from your dessert plate? The tropical feelings and aromas come to the dish from the sauce's coconut and pineapple. We place the Piña Colada's rum into a cool, refreshing sherbet, and get soft harmonies from the balanced rum/milk chocolate in return. And we garnish the dessert with rum soaked cherries. The full-bodied sponge cake has a round body of almond and coconut. Piña Colada on the plate. Neither stirred nor shaken. And definitely no umbrella.

Pike-perch with soy- and sesame sauce,
root vegetable salad and wasabi sherbet

Tonight we'll prepare our Swedish lake fish in a Japanese manner. We'll marinate the pike-perch in a matured soy sauce, rich of umami tastes, and we'll get the 5th base taste into the bargain. By grilling the pike-perch we will get a smoky aroma, well complimenting the character of the soy sauce. Our sauce will become sweet-sour, rich in body and tastes with a distinct nut character from the sesame seeds. The salad becomes freshly crispy from daikon and radish. The sherbet provides a cool freshness and a small peppery explosion of the wasabi, which also ties up the Japanese style.

Breast of duck with garlic fried mushroom,
potato cake and truffles cheese

Oriental like spicy aromas from the duck's golden fried skin gives our taste buds a rich, crispy feeling. Our potato cake is inspired from the Austrian Rösti though we'll dress it in new cloths and add creamy herbaceous tastes. The mushroom should just hint garlic but providing al dente. We feel we'll deserve to indulge in the rich truffle aromas and tastes when preparing the cheese balls. But feel more restricted to let the fig characteristics taking over the sauce.

Chocolate ice cream
with wild berry meringue and caramel

Sweet, sour and modestly bitter are the basic tastes we'll give our dessert. One of our companions to our classic meringue will be the combined acid and sweetness of raspberries and blueberries which provide garnish as well as coulis. Our meringue will also get clear vanilla tones from our way of preparing the double cream. And we also add a distinct nut character from the roasted pistachio kernels. The rich natural sweetness of a classic meringue is supplemented by some crunchy and sharp caramel drops. Our chocolate ice cream with its high quality chocolate will provide heaviness to the dessert by adding balanced bitterness. A classic meringue whose traditional sweetness sometimes feels pushy will have high and balanced tastes from its dessert plate companions.
