Asian smoked salmon and wasabi panna cottas

November 4, 2021

Inspired by Laborie Rosé’s captivating character, Chef Mynhardt proceeded to develop a recipe to match. “I created an Asian smoked salmon and wasabi panna cotta with a pistachio crust and fresh green asparagus to match the Rosé’s fresh and invigorating flavours. The salmon-pink hues in the dish also play beautifully with the pretty pink colour of the wine, creating a sensory feast that is truly invigorating.”
