Assistant Cook
I am co-hosting an event for 14 guys where I will be responsible for dinner.
Being active during the entire event is important so I am trying to make as much as possible in advance.
Snacks instead of a starter:
Candy bacon, with cayenne and lots of black pepper.
Manchego cheese
Deep fried fresh pasta with pesto of baked pesto
Homemade chips
Drinks: Fruity crisp white wine, perhaps Viognier from South Africa
Asahi beer
Main course:
48 hour sous vide brisket with thick vinegar glace
Terres major medallion with baked garlic aioli and tarragon
Pommes puree with nutmeg and crispy parmesan chips
Glazed carrots with fresh thyme.
Wine: Full body red wine, perhaps Primitivo from Italy
Dessert:
Salty sundae
Vannila ice cream
Glazed pecans and almonds
Salty caramel sauce
Chocolate sauce
Wine: Sherry from Spain
Snacks can all be made in advance, but please give suggestions for more.
I can´t really figure out if I am missing anything but perhaps some acidity in the main course would be good and something more crispy?
I would be thrilled to get inputs of any kind - what are your thoughts?
