About this dish
A tomato dashi served cold, drawn slowly out of kombu and shiitake and then infused with peeled cherry tomatoes until it has taken their colour and their sweetness. Cane and rice vinegar put just enough acid on it. In it sit gambas seared hard and still warm when they reach the table, with a nest of finely cut mangetout and pickled red onion. Fried garlic and pine nuts go on last and crackle against the cold broth. Two gambas per person, with the tomato dashi, the tomatoes and mangetout, the pickled red onion and the pine nuts with fried garlic each in their own tub.
Allergens: Crustaceans
Freshness: Good for 3 days after delivery.
