Barbecued Pulled Pork Sandwich
INGREDIENTS:
2 ½ lb pork butt
2 tbsp ground black pepper
¾ c rib rub (see recipe)
2 tbsp Tabasco sauce
4 c apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp Kosher salt
2 tbsp sugar
2 3
/ c barbecue sauce (see recipe)
2 tbsp crushed red pepper
4 tbsp unsalted butter
PREPARATION:
Prepare Rib Rub. Choose a pork butt with a thick layer of fat across the top, and do not trim
this fat. Score the fat in a grid pattern with a sharp knife, about ½ inch deep. Generously
apply rib rub, and press firmly into meat. Let pork sit at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 450°. Place a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet, put pork butt on the
rack, and place on the oven’s center rack. Immediately reduce heat to 325° and bake 50
to 65 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 170°.
Remove from the oven, and let rest 30 minutes.
Whisk together cider vinegar, sugar, crushed red pepper, black pepper, Tabasco, and
salt in a medium mixing bowl. Pour vinegar mixture into a 13x9” baking pan. Cut pork roast
lengthwise into 3 pieces. Arrange meat in the baking pan and cover with aluminum foil.
Heat oven to 325°. Place the pan on the oven’s center rack and cook 35 minutes. Remove
and let cool to room temperature uncovered. Cut each piece on meat into 3 slices. Gently
pull meat apart using your hands, and place in a medium mixing bowl. Add broth from the
baking pan if the meat appears dry.
Heat the barbecue sauce in a small saucepan until hot, but not boiling. Add sauce to pulled
pork and mix well. Check consistency – the pork should be moist but not too wet.

Scottish Salmon Tataki with Ramp and
Lemon Kimchi, Honshimeji Mushrooms
and Tare
INGREDIENTS:
½ lb ramp greens, washed well and drained
½ tbsp sugar
½ tbsp Kosher salt
2 tbsp Korean chili flakes
1 tbsp anchovy sauce
1 lemon, sliced paper thin with
the seeds removed
PREPARATION:
Makes 4 small appetizers. It is important with this dish to plan ahead. Making kimchi takes
time as does finding a good fishmonger. If you have trouble finding acceptable fresh fish,
frozen will definitely work. More often than not, frozen seafood gets a bad rap, but the
truth is most fish sold as fresh has been frozen at some point or held slightly above freezing.
What’s important, whether fresh or frozen, is that the fish is of the highest possible quality. I
recommend spending a little more money and buying fresh because it is pure and unaltered
from its natural state and the texture tends to be nicer.
KIMCHI
Ramps or wild leeks are available locally in Minnesota starting early spring into early summer.
They grow wild and are extremely flavorful. If you cannot get ramps, chives or spring onions
will also work well. The ramp bottoms or “whites” work great for pickling or making ramp
butter. This recipe makes about 3 cups of kimchi, which is more than you need for the dish,
but I’m sure if you use your imagination, you’ll find endless uses for the leftovers.
In a large bowl, combine the washed ramp greens with the salt and let sit overnight in the
refrigerator. The next morning, drain and discard the liquid that has accumulated. In a
separate bowl, combine together the chili pepper flakes, sugar, and anchovy sauce.
Add the lemon and chili flake mixture to the ramps and combine well (you may want
to wear gloves for this part). Place this mixture in an air tight container and refrigerate a
minimum of 2 days, but you can let the flavors develop for up to a month. Re-toss the Kimchi
before serving.
For the rest of the recipe, go to pages 24-25.

Ham and Cheese
PIMENTO CHEESE INGREDIENTS:
6 oz aged cheddar cheese, finely grated
2 oz minced cherry peppers
2 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp Frank’s red hot sauce
2 oz mayonnaise
½ tsp ground black pepper
4 oz Merkts cheddar cheese spread
PREPARATION:
Grilled Ciabatta bread – as needed
Olive oil – as needed
Shaved country ham* – as needed
1 batch pimento cheese
Green onion – 3 slices each
*I use country ham in this recipe because it fits the southern vibe of the dish, but you can use
prosciutto or any other cured ham that you like or can easily find.
Combine all of the ingredients for the pimento cheese in a food processor and pulse until
thoroughly mixed. Hold cold until ready to use. Take your Ciabatta bread and slice ¼” thick,
brush heavily with olive oil and griddle in a sauté pan or grill. Once bread is crisp, hold it aside
until ready to use. Depending on where you buy your ham, you can have the person shave it
to your specifications. I usually have them slice it as thin as possible without the ham
falling apart.
The assembly depends on personal preference. Take a piece of griddled bread, and spread
on as much of the pimento cheese as you like. Place as much of the shaved ham on top of
the cheese as you see fit, and garnish with the green onion.

Cured Alaska Salmon, Apricot Chutney
with Five-Spiced Potato Gaufrettes
INGREDIENTS:
CURED ALASKA SALMON
1 lb salmon fillet (skinless,
boneless)
3 oz salt
3 oz sugar
1 tbsp whole coriander
2 oz Thai basil
APRICOT CHUTNEY
4 apricots, pitted and diced
1½ oz golden raisins
1 red pepper
1 green pepper
½ red onion
1 tbsp ginger, peeled and
minced
1 tbsp garlic, minced
2 tbsp brown sugar
3 oz rice wine vinegar
Salt (to taste)
Cayenne pepper (to taste)
1½ oz olive oil
FIVE -SPICED POTATO
GAUFRETTE
4 Yukon gold potatoes
Chinese 5 Spice, as needed
Salt (to taste)
PREPARATION:
CURED ALASKA SALMON
Important: for this recipe, DO use a frozen salmon product as it is the safest option when
serving a raw/uncooked food. Mix together the salt, sugar, and coriander. Thinly slice the
basil (chiffonade), and layer over the top of the salmon filet. Spread evenly the seasoning
mixture over the salmon. Wrap fillet tightly in plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator.
The curing process should be complete in 24-48 hours depending on the thickness of the fillet.
You can press the salmon (weight on top) to aid in the curing process. When salmon is cured,
slice on the bias, and serve.
APRICOT CHUTNEY
Plump the raisins in the rice vinegar, and set aside. Heat the olive oil in a skillet, and add the
vegetables. Stir in the sugar and raisins. As soon as the vegetables begin to soften, add diced
apricots. If they are added too soon, they will break down too much and become mushy.
Cook until all ingredients have a cooked, yet firm texture and a syrupy consistency is reached
in the pan. Season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper.
FIVE -SPICED POTATO GAUFRETTE
Slice the potatoes with a mandolin to achieve the waffled Gaufrette appearance. Soak
potatoes in cold water for 2 hours to draw out the starches. Dry the potatoes well, and fry at
325°F until golden brown and crispy. Toss immediately with 5 spice and salt to taste.
Allow to cool over a towel to drain the excess fat.

Raspberry Pistachio Crepes
INGREDIENTS:
PISTACHIO PASTRY CREAM
1½ c unsalted pistachios,
finely ground
3 c milk (can use low fat or
dairy free)
¼ tsp kosher or fine sea salt
6 large egg yolks
CREPES
1 c flour
CHANTILLY CREAM
2 c heavy cream
2 eggs
2 tbsp granulated sugar
½ c milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ c water
½ c sugar
¼ tsp salt
3 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp cold unsalted butter
(or dairy free substitute)
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
PREPARATION:
In large sauce pan, combine pistachios, milk and salt and bring just to a boil. Let sit for about
15 minutes. Strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer and discard solids. Measure liquid, you
need 2 cups. If less, add milk. Rinse and wipe out saucepan. In the bowl of an electric mixer,
preferably with a paddle attachment, beat egg yolks and sugar until mixture is thick and light
yellow, about 3 minutes. Turn mixer to low and slowly add cornstarch. Slowly pour in pistachio
milk and mix until well combined. Pour mixture into saucepan.
Cook mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon until it
starts to boil gently. Continue cooking, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes until mixture is thick.
Remove from heat and stir in cold butter and vanilla. If mixture starts to look curdled, just
whisk the daylights out of it, and it’ll come together again. Strain mixture through a fine
strainer into a clean bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressed directly onto surface of pastry
cream to prevent skin from forming. Refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours. Pastry cream
can be made 2-3 days ahead. Before using, whisk pastry cream by hand or with handheld
mixture until smooth.

Grass-fed Beef Brisket Braised in Lager
INGREDIENTS:
6 lb grass-fed beef brisket,
cap on
2 tbsp chopped fresh sage
1 c diced celery
2 tbsp fresh cracked
black pepper
1 tbsp fresh thyme, stripped
¼ c red wine vinegar
3 dry bay leaves
2 bottles lager beer
10-12 garlic cloves, clipped
and smashed
1 qt beef or pork stock
1 tsp allspice
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp cracked red chilies
2 c diced yellow onion
2 c diced carrots
sea salt
olive oil
PREPARATION:
In a small mixing bowl, combine dry spices, fresh herbs, chilies, and pepper. Mix well until
evenly distributed. Lay brisket out on a cutting board and pat dry. Season liberally with sea
salt on both sides, and then cover both sides with herb and spice mix. Refrigerate, covered,
for at least four hours but no more than 24 hours.
Preheat your oven to 325° degrees. Place a large Dutch oven or roasting pan over a burner
set to medium heat on your range top. Add about ¼ cup olive oil. When oil begins to
shimmer, use a tongs and meat fork to carefully add brisket to the pan. Sear on each side for
approximately 6-10 minutes or until an even chocolate-brown caramelization appears. Once
seared, remove brisket from pan and allow to rest in a baking dish or large mixing bowl.
Reduce heat to medium low, and add chopped vegetables and garlic. Sauté, stirring often
to keep the veggies moving, until they begin to brown. Add beer and vinegar. Reduce by
about a quarter, or until the alcohol has cooked out of the beer. Add the stock, and bring to
a simmer. Push the veggies to the side of the pan, replace the brisket (fat side up), adding
any juices that may have gathered in the holding vessel. Spoon as many of the veggies as
possible on top of the brisket cap, cover tightly with two layers of aluminum foil and place in
oven. Braise for 5-6 hours. To check doneness, test the meat by removing the foil (be careful
to avoid steam burns!) and tug at the brisket with a fork or tongs. If the meat falls away, it is
ready. If not, cover again and check every 20 minutes, using the same method.
When brisket is finished, remove from oven, discard foil, and allow it to cool at room
temperature for 30-45 minutes. Remove from pan, and transfer juices to a small stock pot.
Simmer and skim off fat. Reduce the braising juices by 50%, season to taste with sea salt and
fresh cracked black pepper. Slice brisket against the grain in ½” cuts with a very sharp knife.
Serve two slices over toasted peasant bread with heavy spoonfuls of the braising liquid and
a tomato, olive, and tarragon aioli salad. Quaff prodigious amounts of Cannonau or Malbec
as an accompaniment of liquid cheer.

Scottish Salmon Tataki with Ramp
and Lemon Kimchi, Honshimeji
Mushrooms and Tareh
Recipe continued
Honshimeji Mushrooms
INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg Honshimeji mushrooms
Salt (to taste )
1 tsp grape seed oil
Mushroom Tare (recipe below)
PREPARATION:
Cut off the bottom of the mushroom bunch just enough to remove the darker dirty-looking
part and discard. Cut again so the little mushrooms are separated from the bunch and
about 1½ inches long. Save any clean mushroom scraps for the Tare. Heat up a sauté pan
until very hot. Add the grape seed oil and sauté the little mushrooms until caramelized but
not burnt (if they burn even a little they will become very bitter). Remove the pan from the
heat, and add a bit of the Tare to the pan to deglaze (about a tablespoon). Once the liquid
has evaporated and the mushrooms are nicely glazed, season to taste with salt, and set
aside to cool.
Mushroom Tare
INGREDIENTS:
Mushroom scraps from one head of
Honshimeji mushrooms
2-3 caps dried Shitake mushrooms
(chopped coarsely)
½ c sweet Mirin
1/3 cup Shoyu (soy sauce)
½ tsp grape seed oil
½ c sake
PREPARATION:
Heat a small sauce pot until hot. Add the grape seed oil, and coat the bottom of the
pan. Add the mushroom scraps (not the dried mushrooms yet). Carefully caramelize the
mushroom scraps until they are deep golden brown. The better the color, the better the end
flavor will be, but again, be careful not to burn them as it will make your sauce very bitter and
unpleasant. Once caramelized, deglaze the pan with the Sake. After the Sake has cooked
down, add the Mirin, and allow it to reduce slightly before adding the soy sauce. Next add
the dry Shitaki mushrooms, and lower the heat to slowly steep the mushrooms, and slightly
reduce. This should take about 30 minutes. Once the liquid has become slightly viscous,
remove it from the heat, and let it steep with a lid on for another 30 minutes. Strain out the
mushrooms, and allow the sauce to cool.

Scottish Salmon Tataki with Ramp
and Lemon Kimchi, Honshimeji
Mushrooms and Tareh
Recipe continued
Salmon Tataki
INGREDIENTS:
8 oz piece of skinless, center-cut salmon, with
the blood line removed (the bloodline is the
gray part next to the skin)
½ tsp black pepper, ground medium fine
PREPARATION:
Find the line in the skin side of the salmon, and split the fillet in half along the line, making
two even pieces. Next, lightly coat the fish on all sides with the pepper. There are a couple
of ways to sear the fish, but what’s important is that the fish is cooked with an extremely hot
heat source. One way you can accomplish this is with a very hot charcoal grill. The grill gives
the fish great flavor. A second way to sear the fish is using a propane blow torch. The blow
torch method is the easier of the two methods and is easy to control but the flavor is not as
good. Whichever method you use, be sure to only cook the fish briefly. Cook for an even
amount of time on all sides. The end product should be raw with about an 1/8th inch cooked
exterior. Place in the refrigerator to cool completely before serving.
FINAL ASSEMBLY
Slice the fish with a sharp knife into 8 even slices. Place a bit of the Kimchi in the center
of a small plate. Spoon a few of the mushrooms over the Kimchi. Place two slices of the
salmon over the Kimchi and mushrooms. Using a basting brush, lightly brush the Tare over
the fish. Spoon a few more mushrooms over the salmon. Garnish with one, all, or none of the
following: thinly sliced scallions, radish sprouts (kaiware), salmon roe (ikura) or/and pickled
ramp bottoms. Enjoy!
