Food pairing is far more significant as a food trend today than it was in 1992, the year it originated. While experimental gastronomy is constantly reinventing itself through intuitive blends of tastes and flavors, food pairing is scientifically based. Ingredients and foods with the same key aroma components are thus chained together to deliver a particularly harmonious taste experience. Key aromas allow a particular combination of flavors to deliver creative depth.
Caviar with white chocolate, steak with popcorn, prawns with cinnamon and vanilla, cauliflower with cocoa are just a few examples of the molecular cuisine of food pairing. Food pairing trees are used to create unusual combinations of foods that do not always have to consist of exotic ingredients, but can also come directly from the region. Food pairing is especially popular among vegans and vegetarians because it skilfully creates new taste experiences that dispense with animal products and are purely plant-based.
In order to provide a suitable stage for scientific cuisine, the staging of the table concept is of particular importance. While star cuisine has created veritable stage settings for itself, sophisticated gastronomy gets by with the combination of different materials of wood, glass and porcelain. The deliberate break in the use of different materials supports the perception of visual senses. Food pairing finds its form in its non-congruent always matching and almost disturbing appearance, until the resolution is delivered by the harmonious taste experiences.
The pursued precision and the change of perspective in taste lead to a special challenge to use the corresponding gastronomic tableware. While classic plates only provide a fraction of a taste staging concept, the various molecular components of the ingredients are each transported on separate and distinct tableware assortments. The variety in materials and the visual haptics decide on the build-up of culinary moments of tension, which should be carefully coordinated and selected for each food pairing creation.
On the Go
Contrasting flavours combined to create an extraordinary taste experience: as an amouse bouche, frisee salad, lobster, bacon and curry popcorn nestle together in the black ice cream cone and stimulate all the senses. A discreet companion to this delicate appetizer is black porcelain tableware, which visually subordinates itself unobtrusively and leaves the stage to the black ice cream cone.
Hunter-Gatherers
Unusual flavor combinations call for unusual tableware. Petrified wood serves here as a coaster and grounds the presentation of this flamed salmon on tree bark, which is accompanied by spruce needle salt, roasted onions with root, a honeycomb and Szechuan pepper. Plates and bowls of stoneware in dark green convey an impression of craftsmanship and emphasize the color harmony between dishes and food - a harmonious yet unexpected composition.
All in one bite
With food pairing creations, high-end gastronomy creates moments of tension between opulent and simple. This delicate tartelette filled with beetroot panna cotta ball, blackberry gel, herbs and Serrano ham plays the leading role and is supported by timeless white tableware, which underlines the lightness of the dish with its delicacy and simplicity. Only the pale pink hue of the glass shows character and picks up on the colourfulness of the dishes.
Cross Borders
Molecular cuisine not only dissolves boundaries between flavours, but also transcends learned conventions in the presentation of dishes. The sensational food arrangement with pear, parsley root, white chocolate, roasted buckwheat and gold flakes is not only arranged in the middle of the plate, but also on the rim of the plate of this extravagant gourmet plate made of porcelain. An elegant, extraordinary and unexpectedly exciting presentation.
Sense-Sation
See, smell, feel, hear, taste: This opulent molecular drink appeals to all the senses. In a retro structured water glass, pear juice, soda, pear and rosemary mix on clinking ice cubes and are accompanied by a smouldering and slightly smoking cedar leaf, whose scent is reminiscent of the forest and nature. The color of the drink blends in with the harmonious arrangement of handcrafted dark green porcelain bowls.
