Time is always in short supply when you are a chef. But when I get an idea to make something special I find a way. These little beauties take a long time. I make the dough in the morning, weave in the afternoon, cook & serve in the evening. I missed making this post for #worldpastaday but here is one of my favorites! The white dough is seasoned with dehydrated stock. The green dough is raw spinach. I use raw spinach because once it is finally cooked the green pops through brighter than if you blanch the spinach before making the dough. The weaving process is a true labor of love. It’s fun with other colors too but I had spinach on hand. They are filled with lemon whipped ricotta/strained ricotta and nutmeg. Once cooked I served with basil butter, micro basil and lemon violas from @thechefsgarden_ohio Pasta is happiness I promise! #allfivesenses #pasta #superyachtchef #themindofachef #eattheworld #yum #homemade #makeitnice #takeyourtime #cheflife #chefsofinstagram #italianfood #italianchef #food #techniques #luxury #yachtlife https://www.instagram.com/p/CkgxmWHucBU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Been a strange summer Here are some edible highlights I’ve been on 6 boats, covered 7 diverse locations and met some amazing (and not so amazing) people along the way. The world of food is always a wild experience in emotional and professional investment. Thank you to all who participate in this great experiment!

Sometimes the unexpected brings a great discovery. Pecorino and pistachio is a new pairing for me. @shoresidesupport sent me a young pecorino studded with raw pistachio. I had served a nice unfiltered olive oil focaccia with lunch and had a few pieces remaining. And just like that, an amazing little snack was born! Caramelized garlic & unfiltered olive oil focaccia crostini with broiled pecorino, raw and roasted pistachios, saba and beautiful micro basil from @chefsgardenpr #allfivesenses #superyachtchef #italiangirl #chef #luxury #snacks #chefswithoutrestaurants #superyachtlifestyle #eattheworld #bread #makeitnice #yum #food #canape #foodartchefs #instachef #chefsofinstagram #experiment #play https://www.instagram.com/p/CepZ7JvrBqH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

No one uses the word “fusion” anymore It’s too 90s trendy Or “intercontinental fine dining” as that is super 80s. So which words should I use to describe this? I’m open to suggestions. Hand dived scallops, tataki style with cucumbers in this incredible toasted sesame/chili blend I got in Mexico City, and an avocado soaked in a yuzu/smoked salt and toasted sesame oil It’s a Japanese, Mexican, Californian dream lunch. I am grateful to celebrate the people who share these tastes around the world with me! #allfivesenses #eattheworld #yum #lunch #keto #paleo #glutenfree #yachtchef #mindofachef #superyachtchef #luxury #eattolive #healthy #yachtlife #chefsatsea #chefsofinstagram #chefswithoutrestaurants #chefswithoutborders https://www.instagram.com/p/CdrjwRoLoZa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Let’s surf and turf but make it Italian! 48 hr porchetta and Sous vide octopus with grilled vegetables, charred sweet onions, caponata and salsa verde Or, if you are a traditionalist, Maine lobster, lemon butter, roast potatoes & potato purée, yellow tomato confit, filet mignon, caramelized garlic and Gremolata #allfivesenses #surfandturf #chefsofinstagram #chefswithoutrestaurants #superyachtchef #luxury #food #cheflife #eattheworld #travellife #bahamas #yachtcharter #chefsatsea https://www.instagram.com/p/CdmHal1LQtT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I made ‘glass’ potato chip tacos. Filled with dry aged shaved duck and scotch macerated plums Inspired by the #crystalbread of #albertadria I followed a similar track but increased the potato starch and added a bit of corn starch with the kudzu. They take a long time to make but came out great! They are delicate but firm enough to hold the filling and we’re very popular! Amazing crunch and lingering potato flavor! I greatly appreciate all creators who share their magic so others may also experiment and push themselves beyond the daily grind! I’d love to hear what you’ve been working on lately! Inspiration comes in from everywhere! #allfivesenses #superyacht #superyachtchef #chefswithoutrestaurants #cheflife #mindofachef #create #share #gratitude #luxury #comminground #makeitnice #chefsofinstagram #eattheworld #yum #crunch #glutenfree #canapes #ontheroad #travel #travellife https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdg8mQ8rtZR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Want to see what I see? Galley windows are critical for chef sanity! I start well before sunrise and end long after dark. Sometimes on a busy charter I don’t step outside for a solid week. Those times it’s the creative freedom that keep me going. The freedom to play around with classics such as: Turning a crunchy tuna roll into a crunchy sesame rice pizza topped with sweet chili, Sambal aioli, fresh yellowtail and micro shiso Turning a classic pad Thai into a Smokey version with Alderwood smoked yellow bell peppers & carrots, tossed with crunchy smoked salt soaked cabbage, miso caramelized leeks, yellow chili paste, toasted sesame oil and micro opal basil And let’s not forget about dessert. Matcha ice cream and ginger sorbet folded under soft sweet rice dough (Mochi style but not exactly mochi) topped with a golden honey sesame tuille Indeed, creativity is its own life force. #allfivesenses #yachtchef #creativity #superyacht #superyachtchef #travellife #travel #chefsofinstagram #bahamas #chefswithoutrestaurants #cheflife #mindofachef #carryon (at Waderick Wells Cay) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZxlZsqr3ET/?utm_medium=tumblr

What do I mean by flavor? Flavor isn’t a singular experience. It has to be a balanced, architectural experience.

Everything bagel sourdough boule waiting for the bread basket 3. Parmesan, beet micro green ravioli filled with Smokey pumpkin, caramelized onion consume and fresh marjoram 4.

I haven’t posted in a long time. I have various excuses, but to those of you who have stuck it out I want to say Thank you! Sometimes I feel some guilt posting about indulgence during a pandemic. I know I have been very lucky to continue to work non stop during the last two years. I’m grateful. Immensely grateful. I’m grateful for fellow Instagram chefs and Yachties and my own ever shifting fellow crew who keep is moving forward in both practical and creative ways. I am also very grateful to other creators who are willing to collaborate despite distance and shipping! @ronisuechocolates and I did a fun dessert collaboration this summer. I sent them my dessert menus and they hand crafted a truffle for each! They are the most inventive and dedicated chocolatiers anywhere! I’m honored for their trust in showcasing their work alongside mine! I want to give you all a treat of the senses. Hopefully a few visual desserts can do the trick until we all see each other again and I cook for you IRL. I wish you each and indulgences of your favorite tastes!

A little something extra is my motto. I feel good when my eaters feel good! Would this service make you happy? Vegan summer rolls with tofu, mango, cucumber, mint, basil, cilantro and shiso served over a homemade honey chili sauce Then bring on the sushi. A nice sampler of the freshest fish, incredible shiso to serve as tacos shells, spicy tuna and more. Just in case you really want something hot, here is a tapioca and ground dehydrated mango flour battered langoustines with unpictured cucumber ponzu dressing And I can’t just end there. Let’s round out the whole meal with a sorbet duo of dragon fruit and lemongrass raspberry topped with an almond tuille. Now that’s a yacht lunch. From here you can float on a giant unicorn while someone tows you around the most beautiful waters in the world. Yep, just a little extra! #allfivesenses #yachtlife #superyachtchef #luxury #chefsofinstagram #betterinthebahamas #yum #sushi #lunch #happy #indulge #luxlife #onthepass #chefswithoutrestaurants #chefs_at_sea #eeeeeats #foodporn https://www.instagram.com/p/CPLVR2Grt20/?utm_medium=tumblr
