If you haven't heard of Kocurek Charcuterie, you need to gather your reusable bag, head down to one of the farmer's markets and check them out. Their pies are amazing, and that is most likely because they contain massive amounts of butter in the crust. I was invited to attend the Slow Food Kocurek Wine Pairing Dinner at Swoop House, and here's the run down of the dishes. The evening started with some tartlets by Cake and Spoon. I mostly shoved them in my mouth, so I do apologize for the lack of photos. I'm sorry. I ate before taking photos. Enjoy the food porn.
The first course was the Czech Blood sausage with beurre noisette on baguette with Boulard NV Cuvée Rosé Champagne. Yes, it is as good as it looks.
Duo of pate, pate de campagne with tarragon grain mustard, pate de maison with parsley gelee on brioche (Kocurek) with Jo Pithon 2005 Anjou Blanc "les Pepinieres."
Hure de Tete terrine with frisee salad, mustard vinaigrette (Kocurek) with Denis Barbelet 2007 Saint Amour. The fatty terrine with the fresh salad was a perfect pairing.
Plate it up!
That's a fennel blossom, and yes, I ate it.
