fromage du jour
Fourme d'Ambert
"Fourme" is the old French word for cheese from the Latin name "forma", and describes its cylindrical shape. Fourme d'Ambert is made with cow's milk. Penicillium glaucum bacteria is added to the cheese which is going to rest in a cave for a minimum of 2 months. It is one of the mildest of the blue cheeses, a creamy cheese with a delicate fruity flavor and mushroom overtones.
Buche d'Affinois
This cheese has an unusual brick shape and is produced near the City of Lyon. Manufactured by
Fromagerie Guilloteau in very modern facilities, the cow's milk is ultra-filtrated giving an extremely fine,
silky texture & a longer shelf life. The flavour develops as the cheese matures but remains creamy and
subtle, with a well rounded finish that leaves a lingering rich buttery flavour on the palate.
Queso Manchego
A Spanish ewe's milk cheese originating from the plateau of La Mancha and made from the milk of the Manchega sheep. Manchego, the most famous of all Spanish sheep milk cheeses, is firm and flaky in
texture, displaying mild, nutty flavours. The wild herbs that are a staple of the sheeps' diet, contribute
to its aromatic taste.
glossary
Feuilette A piece of puff pastry, cut into a triangle then filled or garnished
Ceviche Also known as "cebiche", a dish characteristic of Peruvian cookery that is based on raw fish, marinated or served with citrus fruits
Fricasse Mushrooms cooked lightly in shallots and garlic, finished with a touch of cream
Veloute Cream based sauce using fish or chicken stock. Translates as "velvet"
Confit Method of slow cooking something, submerged in its own fat. Creates soft and tender meat
Soubise A puree of white onion finished with cream
Chateaubriand Dedicated to the Vicomte De Chateaubriand (1768-1848) by his chef, Montmireil. This dish is a great carnivore feast, sit back and indulge, make sure you order a good hearty red to quaff
Charcuterie Products basedon pork, meat or offal. The word also designates the shop where such products are sold. All the items are homemade at Harrisons
Foie Gras Goose or duck liver that is grossly enlarged by methodically fattening the bird. The force feeding of geese goes as far back as Roman times when figs were used, now days, corn is the substitute. This is one of my most favourite indulgences in cooking, it is fantastically adaptable and a great delicacy. As far as I am aware, no other restaurant in the area sells this product and I am very proud to have it on the menu at Harrisons
Rissoni Rice shaped pasta. Here it is cooked with squid ink
Tarte tatin Name given to a tart of caramelised apples that are cooked under a lid of pastry and then inverted to be served. It is a dedication to the Tatin sisters, who ran a restaurant Lamotte-Beuvron at the beginning of the 20th century. I use pineapple instead of apple, as a little twist on a great classic
Bon Appetit. Spencer Patrick
