Short Ribs with Sweet Potatoes, Beets and Truffle Tremor Cheese

Putting said orange salt roasted beets to good use.

Orange Salt Roasted Baby Beets

Here lies several beets encased in a salt, egg white and orange zest insulating shell.
Once baked in its shell, it is cracked open to provide you with your evenly cooked beets scented with orange yet not salty in the least. Combi, Shmombi. But I'd love to have a combi oven don't get me wrong.

Then just pick the beets from the shell, rub the skins off with a towel and slice to see the beauty inside!

Yum!

Beet Cake : Phase 1

First attempt at the beet cake recipe I'm working on. It tastes real good but definatly needs tweeking and some flurishes.

Goat Cheese Cheesecake with Beet Shell

This is goat cheese cheesecake that has been whipped and piped to resemble baby beets. They will later be covered with a beet croquant outer shell... Below is the powder for the beet croquant.

I didn't get the picture of the final product, I couldn't wait to crack it open an see & taste theoutcome. Plan to make more soon, more refined.

"Land and Sea"

I call this "Land and Sea" simply because it looks like a fish washed ashore, also because it is salmon paired with some very earthy flavors. It has some salt roasted candy stripped beets, asparagus in two forms, simply cooked in some burre monte and fried strips, also I have some maple "sea" foam and maple granola "beach sand". I then garnished it with a perfect salmon skin crisp! I really love this dish, it might could use some tweeking but the texture and presentation I enjoy.
