publisher’s note<br />

Welcome to Tasting Kitchen.<br />

In this issue we present you with an<br />

autumn seafood smorgasbord: smoked eel,<br />

stir-fried scallops with ginger, stone-roasted<br />

John Dory, steamed grouper and doubleboiled<br />

conch, razor clams, Portuguese<br />

bacalhau and cataplana, Brittany blue<br />

lobsters, Peruvian ceviche, pan-roasted arctic<br />

char, abalone, oysters, crab and more.<br />

We talk to an etiquette consultant about<br />

the cultivated way to enjoy caviar, share advice<br />

on properly pairing Champagne, and take you<br />

to the top of the Ritz-Carlton for an exclusive<br />

caviar and Champagne pairing menu.<br />

In our cover story, you’ll be introduced to some underwater wonders that are<br />

worth adding to your bucket list, including goose barnacles and scorpion fish,<br />

Tarbouriech oysters and Brittany sea urchins. After spending some time getting<br />

to know these rare treasures of the sea, you’ll follow them to Mirror restaurant in<br />

Wan Chai where they were the stars in a memorably imaginative meal created by<br />

Chef Jeremy Biasiol.<br />

If you’ve enjoyed seafood in Hong Kong, there’s a good chance it passed<br />

through the Aberdeen Wholesale Fish Market on its way from the sea to your<br />

plate. In this issue’s photo essay by TK Director of Photography, David Hartung,<br />

we share glimpses of the energy and hard work that define the market in the hours<br />

before dawn.<br />

In addition to all the seafood, we take you inside the Mandarin Oriental’s<br />

newly renovated Krug Room to experience some of Chef Uwe Opocensky’s<br />

famously innovative dishes, trace the inspiration and vision of one of Hong Kong’s<br />

wine pioneers, sample a world-class New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, meet a trio of<br />

Austrian winemakers, and explore the city’s largest cheese room.<br />

Enjoy!<br />

Greetings from Tasting Kitchen.<br />

My first job in the kitchen was at a<br />

chef’s note<br />

restaurant in Alsace, on the German border,<br />

far from the sea. Twice a week I would arrive<br />

at the restaurant at midnight with the other<br />

apprentices and we would wait for a load of<br />

precious cargo.<br />

The fresh seafood would arrive by trucks<br />

in the middle of the night in wooden boxes<br />

filled with crushed ice. The scallops were still<br />

live in their shells, full of sand, and I spent<br />

hours meticulously cleaning them until every<br />

grain was gone.<br />

After graduation I landed a job in Paris at a restaurant called L’Alsace aux<br />

Halles, which specialized in seafood. There I learned how to cook, smoke, steam,<br />

grill, and sautée all types of seafood, but my most valuable lesson was taught by<br />

l’ecaillers (the scalers).<br />

They taught me how to prepare raw seafood – oysters, clams, winkles, shrimp,<br />

gambas, and spider crabs – and how to create colorful seafood sculptures on a bed<br />

of seaweed and ice.<br />

The restaurant was near the red light district in Paris, and at around four in the<br />

morning the girls would come to eat our frog legs soufflé and drink along with the<br />

butchers from nearby shops who were starting their days early with cognac and coffee.<br />

Later, when I was cooking in the West Indies, I liked to watch the kids dive<br />

into the sea and come out with enormous conches. They’d extract the flesh and eat<br />

it raw. I tried it once and I could not even sink my teeth into the rubbery texture –<br />

cooked, though, it became a great delicacy.<br />

The best seafood I ever had was at a small roadside restaurant in Yunnan,<br />

China. An older tattooed chef slowly cooked a fresh fish stuffed with tea leaves and<br />

red pimento over an open fire and it was extraordinary.<br />

Sometimes culinary revelations find you when you’re least expecting them.<br />

artfully on ice. For his efforts, Chef Ho, who<br />

红白交映 肉中骄子<br />

red, white<br />

and moo<br />

Up until the seventeenth century in England,<br />

cattle were bred to be work animals, pulling<br />

heavy carts and working the land. After this<br />

point farmers began breeding cattle for their<br />

meat – strong steers with flesh sweetened by<br />

the green pastures of the English countryside.<br />

Grass is the most natural feed for ruminants.<br />

It is pure and easy to digest. As they<br />

graze, cattle walk miles, becoming fit and lean.<br />

Royal Standard English beef has good mouth<br />

feel and a pure, clear taste. This natural, delicious<br />

and traditional beef from England’s green and<br />

pleasant land is now available in Hong Kong.<br />

十七世纪的英国,牛只尚为拉曳拖车的驼兽,用于农忙耕地。而后农家才开始畜<br />

养肉牛,以英国乡间翠绿青草为主食的食用牛肉质鲜甜,品质极佳。<br />

对牛只这种反刍动物而言,青草正是最天然的饲料,纯净无染又容易消化。<br />

放牧的牛只每日行走数里,也让肉质变得结实精瘦。 「皇家品质英国牛肉」口感好,<br />

红焰冰娘子<br />

ice bride on fire<br />

“Autumn is traditionally wild game, hairy crab and truffle season, and these<br />

ingredients match well with traditional yet adventurous cocktails,” say China<br />

Rouge bartender Jerry Li and bar manager Roy Kong. Featuring flaming<br />

rosemary, traditional Shaoxing hua diao wine, fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire<br />

sauce and tomato juice, Ice Bride on Fire is among three special drinks recently<br />

added to the menu at the exclusive Macau nightspot. For inspiration, Li and<br />

Kong drew on ancient Chinese wedding customs and literary references to the<br />

decadent wine parties of dynastic China. “The classic ingredients and familiar<br />

flavors recall memories of good times, but adding hua diao wine makes for a<br />

totally new sensory experience.”<br />

澳门高级私人会所「红伶 (China Rouge)」名噪一时,调酒师 Jerry Li 及酒吧经理<br />

Roy Kong 异口同声表示 :「照传统,秋天正是品尝野味、毛蟹及松露的节候,搭<br />

配经典却带点颠覆性的调酒正当时。」以传统绍兴花雕酒为基酒、加入柠檬汁、<br />

伍斯特郡黑醋、蕃茄汁,再插入迷迭香点火就是「红伶」最近推出的三大秋季调<br />

酒之一「红焰冰娘子」。这款调酒以古代中国婚礼习俗为灵感、封建时期饮酒作<br />

乐的宴会作为参考所创作。 Jerry 及 Roy 解释 :「经典的调酒成分及熟悉的味道让<br />

人联想到昔日的美好时光,花雕酒则带来全新的感官体验。」<br />

What do jeWelers, goldsmiths and pastry<br />

chefs have in common?<br />

“Both pastry and jewelry are seen<br />

as refined art pieces,” says Richard Long,<br />

Executive Pastry Chef at The Ritz-Carlton,<br />

Hong Kong. “We are all working towards<br />

stylistic and aesthetic perfection.”<br />

A new afternoon tea collaboration<br />

between The Lounge & Bar at The Ritz-<br />

Carlton, Hong Kong and iconic Italian<br />

jewelry brand Damiani showcases these<br />

shared ideals. During the month of<br />

September, tea takers will be treated<br />

to edible chocolate pendants modeled<br />

on pieces from Damiani’s Belle Epoque<br />

collection. Other tempting pastries, like<br />

the five-textured limoni tea cake “shot”<br />

and the golden Sicilian pistachio and<br />

raspberry croissant, tempt with saturated<br />

jewel tones.<br />

Figuratively inspired by Damiani’s<br />

jewelry, the meticulously crafted, gemlike<br />

pastries both display good taste and<br />

deliver it, literally. Chef Long counts a<br />

creation in the ring category as one of his<br />

favorite selections. The “illy” tarte echoes<br />

the woven bands of Damiani’s Gomitolo<br />

collection with cascading waves of<br />

chocolate cream. “It has a great balance<br />

of taste and texture,” says Long.<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

A chAnge of seAson brings with it new tastes<br />

and flavors. The chefs at Wynn Macau have<br />

recently launched new menus featuring fresh and<br />

seasonal ingredients from around the world.<br />

Stir-Fried Scallops<br />

with Marinated Ginger<br />

At Golden Flower, Executive Chef Liu<br />

Guo Zhu ensures that, in authentic Tan-style,<br />

the true flavors of his ingredients are honored<br />

and kept in perfect balance. This innovative dish, a<br />

combination of seafood and young ginger, brings<br />

together ingredients from both Southern and<br />

Northern China. The scallops are fresh and tender,<br />

the ginger is pungent and crisp – the spicy element<br />

enhances the sweetness of the scallops. Crunchy<br />

Shandong leeks add another textural dimension.<br />

泡姜滑炒带子<br />

「京花轩」行政总厨刘国柱主掌的「谭家菜」的风格,<br />

一向主张彰显食材原味,拿捏精准完美。这道创意料理<br />

结合海鲜及嫩姜,食材正好来自中国南北两方。带子新鲜<br />

软嫩,辅以呛鼻爽脆的嫩姜,一丝劲辣正好激发带子的鲜<br />

甜。饶富口感的山东韭葱则让这道菜吃来层次更加丰富。<br />

Stone-Roasted John Dory<br />

with Dungeness Crab<br />

Risotto and Leek Emulsion<br />

Another winning combination of<br />

premium ingredients and amazing textures<br />

by Il Teatro Chef De Cuisine Anthony Alaimo.<br />

Flown in directly from the pristine waters of<br />

southern New Zealand, the John Dory is stone-roasted,<br />

avoiding the harshness of a grill and giving the fish a<br />

subtler flavor. The crab risotto provides rich texture.<br />

石烧尊多利鱼伴珍宝蟹意大利饭及大蒜浓汁<br />

「帝雅廷意大利餐厅」高级主厨Anthony Alaimo 的拿手料理<br />

可说是顶级食材与绝佳口感的完美结合。为避免烤架破坏肉<br />

质,纽西兰南部纯净海域空运而来的尊多利鱼以石头炙烧,<br />

让细致美味更上一层楼。螃蟹炖饭则增添丰富的口感,与鲜<br />

嫩鱼肉搭配得恰到好处。尊多利鱼与黄金蟹均是以永续渔<br />

业捕捞方式取得,也正是餐厅研发新菜色所遵循的理念。<br />

overwhelms another. For absolute<br />

甜蜜时光<br />

sweet<br />

moments<br />

Toward the end of her recently released book, Butterflies and All<br />

Things Sweet, Bonnae Gokson quotes the Bengali writer Rabindranath<br />

Tagore: “The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has<br />

time enough.” The book, subtitled The Story of Ms. B’s Cakes, is a<br />

celebration of Ms. Gokson’s focus on evanescent pleasures, on the<br />

enjoyment of moments, and on her tremendous talent for creating<br />

sweet moments for other people.<br />

These sweet moments often take the form of her famously<br />

inventive cakes. “The cakes I create for my customers are like<br />

butterflies, here and then gone, devoured in a few sweet bites,” she<br />

says. The book itself is a series of lovely moments, with images of<br />

the cakes surrounded by the things that have inspired them: “Spools<br />

of brightly colored ribbons, the seeds of a pomegranate, a fragment<br />

of handmade lace that holds memories of my years in fashion, the<br />

petals of a peony: all these things inspire me to create cakes that give<br />

pleasure to my customers.”<br />

You might say that Bonnae Gokson’s aim in life has been to<br />

release a series of butterflies out into the world. The evidence in her<br />

book suggests that she has been succeeding, and beautifully.<br />

香港「甜点女王」郭志怡 (Bonnae Gokson) 在新书「Butterflies and<br />

All Things Sweet」 文末引用了印度诗人泰戈尔的一段话 :「蝴蝶在世不<br />

算年月,而以瞬息计,却已无比充裕。」新书副标为「The Story of Ms.<br />

B’s Cakes」,记载了郭志怡追求生命乐趣的执着。她享受每一刻,发挥<br />

无限想像力为客人创造甜蜜回忆。<br />

这些令人无法忘怀的回忆,主要归功于她的招牌创意蛋糕。郭志<br />

怡形容 :「我为客户量身订做的蛋糕就像蝴蝶一样,不消几口即享用完<br />

毕,稍纵即逝。」新书内容如同美好时光的汇串,一幅又一幅精美蛋糕<br />

伴随其灵感来源的美丽画面,正如书中所述 :「亮色缎带的卷轴、石榴<br />

的籽、勾起过往时尚界回忆的一片手工蕾丝,或牡丹花瓣-都能激发<br />

我的灵感,创作独一无二的蛋糕,带给客人欢乐。」<br />

或许可以说郭志怡的人生目标,就是让一只只蝴蝶来到这个世界。<br />

由这本书可知,她成功了,蝴蝶翩翩起舞,美丽又动人。<br />

那不勒斯湾 大海的恩赐<br />

bounty of the<br />

bay of naples<br />

A vivid sea-themed mosaic provides insight<br />

into the dining habits of the Ancient Romans.<br />

Before the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD, the Roman<br />

port city of Pompeii did a roaring trade in wine, olives and its<br />

most infamous export, garum. This pungent fish sauce, made<br />

by crushing whole fish and fermenting the mixture in brine for<br />

up to six weeks, was used to flavor dishes across the Empire.<br />

Not everybody was a fan: Seneca, the Roman philosopher<br />

and statesman, complained that it “burns up the stomach<br />

with its salted putrefaction.”<br />

In this wonderfully detailed mosaic, unearthed by<br />

archeologists in a nondescript city villa, the observer is<br />

invited to dive deep under the white crests of the Bay of<br />

Naples. Among the rocks and seaweed adorning the sea<br />

floor, a lobster and an octopus are locked in battle. Around<br />

them floats a smorgasbord of edible sea creatures. Some –<br />

the mullet, bream, squid, eel and prawn – feature regularly<br />

on tables today, while others, such as the sharks, stingray,<br />

scorpion fish and barnacle, are rarer delicacies.<br />

The Ancient Romans used mosaic to decorate walls and<br />

floors in shops, restaurants and dwellings. Similar undersea<br />

scenes have been discovered in other Pompeii residences,<br />

such as the lavish House of the Faun, suggesting that many<br />

citizens of the city may have shared a grateful appreciation<br />

for the bounties of the Mediterranean Sea.<br />

西元 79 年,维苏威火山爆发前,罗马帝<br />

国海港城市庞贝一片欣欣向荣,可见酒类、<br />

橄榄的大宗交易,以及让不少人掩鼻走避、<br />

味道刺鼻的出口品鱼酱 (garum)。罗马人<br />

把全鱼捣烂、浸于盐水中发酵六周制成鱼<br />

酱,为当时全国家家户户均会使用的调味<br />

品。不过也有人不买帐,像罗马哲学家及<br />

政治家赛内卡就曾抱怨,鱼酱的「盐腐味<br />

让胃都要烧起来了」。<br />

这幅马赛克于庞贝某处不知名的别墅<br />

中出土,细节之丰富让考古学家大为惊艳,<br />

可一探那不勒斯湾海底世界的奥妙。磐石<br />

打的难分难解,旁边则穿插了各种可食用<br />

的海中生物,其中鲱鱼、欧鳊、乌贼、鳗<br />

鱼及明虾至今仍是常见的食材,另外像鲨<br />

鱼、魟、天蝎鱼及藤壶则是较为少见的珍馐。<br />

古罗马人喜欢用马赛克装饰商店、餐<br />

厅及住宅的墙壁及地板。类似的海洋主题<br />

作品也曾于庞贝他处民宅,如奢豪的「农<br />

牧神之家 (House of the Faun)」中发现,<br />

代表了当时许多庞贝居民对于地中海惠赐<br />

的丰饶物产都怀着感激之心。

savoir-vivre<br />

36<br />

雅致生活 艺术所在<br />

the art of elegant living<br />

Etiquette consultant Catherine Soulas-Baron is the founder of Hong Kong’s Academy of<br />

Etiquette and Modern Manners. She devotes herself to studying the role of food and drink<br />

in the history of society and is an expert on savoir-vivre and the art of elegant living.<br />

What is savoir-vivre exactly?<br />

The French phrase savoir-vivre is a little hard to translate. All in<br />

one phrase it conveys politeness, etiquette, demeanor, personal<br />

behavior, how one carries oneself, table manners and more. It<br />

can be understood as the path to a life of cultivation. France’s<br />

own path to cultivation started with King Louis XIV, the Sun<br />

King, and has long since been the world standard for etiquette.<br />

Nowadays, it has become both a lifestyle and a life philosophy<br />

synonymous with elegance and excellence. Savoir-vivre defines<br />

how delicacies are to be enjoyed, how to taste wine, how to<br />

savor a fine cigar, how to receive guests, and the rules of table<br />

etiquette.<br />

What is so important about etiquette?<br />

These kinds of soft skills can turn a simple meal into a pleasant<br />

and relaxing event, as well as assist you with smoothly fitting<br />

into refined social circles. Proper etiquette makes you<br />

stand out from the crowd, gives you an elegant<br />

bearing and encourages modesty and respect.<br />

Caviar is considered by some to be the<br />

pinnacle of Western gourmet cuisine. Therefore,<br />

it should be served in a crystal bowl to better<br />

highlight its elegance.<br />

Caviar should always be served on a bed of crushed ice.<br />

A silver spoon should never be used with any respectable<br />

caviar, as it will transfer an unpleasant taste to the caviar.<br />

There are many ways to enjoy caviar, but true connoisseurs<br />

eat it after making a small mound of the eggs on the back of the<br />

hand, between the thumb and index finger.<br />

仪节 (savoir vivre) 一词该如何理解?<br />

「savoir vivre」在法文中可指礼貌、礼节、<br />

举止、个人行为、风度或餐桌礼仪等,意<br />

思很多,要直译其实有点困难。如需诠释<br />

可理解为高尚生活之道。法国的高尚生活<br />

之道从太阳国王露易十四开始,已成为世<br />

界礼仪之坐标。时至今日 , 已成为一种生<br />

活格调,一种生活哲学,是优雅与卓越的<br />

代名词。如何品尝美食、如何品酩、如何<br />

品味雪茄、如何招待宾客,乃至于餐桌礼<br />

仪等都含括其中 。<br />

礼仪为何如此重要?<br />

透过得当的软性技能 (soft skills),简单的<br />

一餐也能变成愉悦及惬意的飨宴,同时也<br />

能帮助你顺利融入上流社交圈。<br />

举止恰宜的人与众不同,举<br />

手投足间得体优雅、端庄<br />

有礼,受人尊重。<br />

Caviar EtiquEttE 如何享用鱼子酱<br />

鱼子酱是西方顶级食<br />

材的代表,常盛装于水晶<br />

鱼子酱一定要置于铺着碎冰的<br />

任何品质优良的鱼子酱,均不得以银制<br />

品尝鱼子酱的方式很多,但真正的行家<br />

喜欢用手背来品味,虎口处放上一小匙鱼<br />

子酱,直接吸吮入肚就是最佳的方式。<br />

创意之源<br />

the heart of the mandarin<br />

At The Mandarin Oriental’s Krug Room, Chef Uwe Opocensky’s<br />

innovative dishes defy categorization.<br />

The firsT sign that this will be no ordinary<br />

dining experience is the delicate posy<br />

of freshly picked English wildflowers on<br />

the long marble dining table of the recently<br />

refurbished Krug Room. Uwe Opocensky,<br />

the Mandarin Oriental Hotel’s Executive<br />

Chef, has seen to the floral arrangement<br />

himself.<br />

How interesting that the Executive Chef<br />

concerns himself with the details of the<br />

room’s decoration. His attention to detail<br />

is clearly extraordinary – but that’s not the<br />

whole story. The floral arrangement isn’t<br />

just beautiful. Every element of the gracefully<br />

composed bouquet also turns out to<br />

be edible: the pale pink meadowsweet, the<br />

toothwort sprigs, the fine nettles and the<br />

“branches” that are in fact crisp brown bread<br />

tasting notes<br />

september 2013 | TASTING KITCHEN | 39


sticks intended to be dipped in the creamy<br />

herb butter placed at the base of the vase.<br />

Chef Uwe grins: “You’re not going to be<br />

eating normal food today.”<br />

Indeed. In his six years as Executive Chef<br />

of that grand dame of Hong Kong establishments,<br />

the Mandarin Oriental Hotel,<br />

German-born Chef Uwe has brought imagination,<br />

freshness and vision to a hotel that has<br />

always enjoyed a sterling reputation for dining<br />

excellence, but perhaps less recognition for<br />

innovation and creativity. The process of transforming<br />

the Mandarin into a dynamic dining<br />

destination began here, in the Krug Room, the<br />

40<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

twelve-seat enclave that is now the beating<br />

heart of the hotel’s gastronomic culture, the<br />

place where ideas have their genesis before<br />

radiating out into the hotel’s other restaurants.<br />

“We start with a concept for a dish. In<br />

the Krug Room, we might test this idea on<br />

two people first. We then think, ‘Can we do<br />

this dish for five hundred people? A thousand?<br />

Two thousand?’ You modify it slightly<br />

of course. But the Krug Room is the heart<br />

of where it all begins.”<br />

The transformation of the room has<br />

been inspired in part by the idea of dining<br />

in a luxury train carriage. “Like the Orient<br />

Express,” explains Chef Uwe. Gone are the<br />

austere white plates and contemporary finishes<br />

of the former Krug Room, replaced by<br />

tones of plum and gold and an air of refined,<br />

but never ostentatious, luxury.<br />

This makes sense, given the partnership<br />

with that most elite yet discreet of Champagne<br />

brands – Krug. The weight of such<br />

a reputation boosts expectations sky-high:<br />

is there ever any hesitation in pushing the<br />

envelope, knowing Krug CEO Margareth<br />

Henriquez is watching every move with interest?<br />

“No. Never,” says Uwe. “It’s exactly the<br />

opposite. They are always asking me, ‘What<br />

踏入新近整修完成的香港文华东方酒店「库<br />

克厅」,便会被大理石长桌上的现摘英伦野<br />

花束所吸引。雅致精巧的花艺由行政总厨<br />

Uwe Opocensky 亲自打理,也似乎预示着<br />

接下来会是场别开生面的飨宴。<br />

作为总厨,连餐厅内的装饰摆设都要<br />

亲自操办,还真少见。他对细节锱铢必较<br />

的程度令人赞叹,不过若以为仅止于此可<br />

就大错特错了。<br />

花艺设计不只为赏心悦目,花束里看<br />

得到的几乎都是食材,包括淡粉色的绣线<br />

菊、齿鳞草细枝、上好的荨麻以及置于花<br />

瓶底部的「树枝」-其实是沾裹草本奶油、<br />

酥脆焦黄的面包条。<br />

德籍总厨 Uwe 笑着说 :「今天会来点<br />

跟平常不一样的。」<br />

的确,他入主香港奢华酒店代名词「文<br />

华东方」六年来,以天马行空的想像力带<br />

来许多惊奇及愿景,除了维持「文华东方」<br />

于顶级餐饮界第一把交椅的地位不坠,也<br />

挹注原本较为缺乏的创新力道及创意想法。<br />

「库克厅」在此转型过程中扮演举足轻重的<br />

角色,仅能容纳 12 位宾客的斗室却是驱动<br />

「文华东方」追求极致餐饮文化的核心所在,<br />

创意由此灵聚,继而辐散至其他餐厅。<br />

「一道料理我们会先提想法,可能在库<br />

克厅试做给两个人吃,然后会想,『那可以<br />

做给五百个人吃,甚或一两千人吃吗?』<br />

The Lawn, Afternoon Tea<br />

当然过程会稍有调整,但库克厅就是心脏,<br />

所有创意的来源。」<br />

库克厅重新装修的灵感来自高级列车<br />

车厢,总厨说明 :「就像在东方特快车上用<br />

餐一样」,往昔素静淡白的餐盘及当代设计<br />

风格已不复见,取而代之的是青紫及金色<br />

的主色调、精致却不铺张的低调奢华。<br />

华美气势正与库克厅另一幕后推手,<br />

september 2013 | TASTING KITCHEN | 41


are you going to come up with next?’ There<br />

is no limitation here on what you should and<br />

shouldn’t do. When I speak with Krug, it is<br />

never, ‘Oh, what food are you going to do to<br />

go with our Champagne?’ They are totally<br />

relaxed about the whole thing.”<br />

Chef Uwe’s confidence and unfettered<br />

creativity are manifest in his exquisite<br />

“Vivaldi” dish. Inspired by its namesake’s<br />

Four Seasons concertos, it is an artfully<br />

arranged medley of paprika, pea, pumpkin<br />

and caviar purees, poured to form the<br />

image of a tree in full seasonal splendor. A<br />

cherry-shaped ball of fois gras dangles from<br />

42<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

a branch. “For a dish like this, I’ll do a drawing,<br />

and then from that we make a special<br />

stencil to create the image.”<br />

Food this precise is serious business, but<br />

Chef Uwe’s sense of humor ensures that<br />

dining at the Krug Room is never stiff or pretentious.<br />

He recalls the story of a frequent<br />

Krug Room customer who hired the room<br />

for his 40th birthday. “He asked, ‘Can we do<br />

something special here?’ We said of course<br />

we can, so we served a school dinner. It was<br />

big pots of vegetables, mash, peas, steak and<br />

kidney pie, even our interpretation of Spam<br />

in a can.” And the pièce de résistance? Chef<br />

Uwe, dressed in a tuck-shop apron, wheeling<br />

the feast in on a kitchen trolley and doling<br />

out wooden trays so everyone could stand in<br />

line to get their serving. “That was an interesting<br />

experience!” he laughs.<br />

And creating an experience, explains<br />

Chef Uwe, is a chef’s most important goal.<br />

“If you come to the Mandarin and it is just<br />

an intake of food, I have not succeeded.<br />

Hong Kong is so fast paced. If I can make<br />

you stop for a moment, have a conversation<br />

about the food, take a picture even, put away<br />

the Blackberry and enjoy the moment, then<br />

I’m doing my job well.”<br />

同名顶级香槟品牌的风格相互衬托。与业<br />

界无人不晓的「库克」香槟合作,想必期<br />

待值也几乎破表 :想到一举一动都被「库<br />

克」执行长 Margareth Henriquez 都看在眼<br />

里,是否真能放开胆子去尝试? Uwe 强调:<br />

「跟大家想的刚好相反,反而是他们一直问<br />

我『接下来要做什么新东西』,没有人下指<br />

导棋,想做什么都可以。和库克沟通的时候,<br />

从来不会听到『你要创作什么料理来搭配<br />

库克的香槟?』,他们很放心,也从不干涉。」<br />

总厨无穷的想像力在发想自作曲家韦<br />

瓦第知名协奏曲「四季」的同名自信之作<br />

中展露无遗。在他巧妙安排下,混制红辣椒、<br />

豌豆、南瓜及鱼子酱成泥,绘制一棵尽显<br />

春日之美的树,加上悬挂树枝、樱桃形状<br />

的鹅肝球,更添趣味。 「做这种创意料理<br />

我会先画草图,再就此特制模版,方便实<br />

际做出造型。」<br />

料理做到如此精准不能不令宾客肃然<br />

起敬,但总厨独有的幽默感,却总能让库<br />

克厅的气氛轻松自然。他还记得有个常客<br />

某次包场要庆祝 40 岁生日:「客人问我『能<br />

不能来点特别的?』我说当然没问题,于<br />

是就做了全套的英美学校晚餐。大锅大锅<br />

的蔬菜、马铃薯泥、豌豆、牛排及肉排腰<br />

子派,以及库克风格的猪肉罐头应有尽有。<br />

Uwe 还配合演出,穿上白围裙,化身打菜<br />

大叔推出餐车,宾客排排站着,等他派发<br />

Vivaldi, The Krug Room<br />

木头餐盘拿食物,更是『当天的高潮所在』。」<br />

总厨也忍俊不住 :「当真兴味盎然!」<br />

为客人创造体验,厨师责无旁贷。<br />

Uwe 特别强调 :「如果到文华东方只是吃吃<br />

东西就走的话,就是我失职。香港步调这<br />

么快,如果我能让客人稍微抽空聊聊眼前<br />

的美食,甚至黑莓机先放一旁,拍张照片,<br />

享受当下,我就成功了。」<br />

How does Krug maintain consistent<br />

quality every year?<br />

We keep a library of beautiful vintages<br />

and blend them together to make the<br />

most stunning liquid, ensuring that when<br />

a particular vintage is disappointing, Krug<br />

lovers will still have the chance to drink<br />

a wonderful Champagne. The blending<br />

is an art – there can be over a hundred<br />

individual wines in a blend and it is<br />

completely driven by taste. The blend will<br />

be changed and altered until it is perfect.<br />

How should Champagne be served to<br />

appreciate it fully?<br />

Champagne is about joy, so its flavor should<br />

not be stifled. I don’t like flute glasses as<br />

they hide the flavor of the wine. And it is<br />

not good to serve Champagne too cold – it<br />

restrains the subtle notes. Riedel designed<br />

us a special glass, which is wider and allows<br />

blending the senses<br />

库克香槟如何保持品质上乘?<br />

我们对于葡萄丰收年份均有详细记载,精<br />

心挑选、混酿制作令人惊艳的好酒,即便<br />

某一特定年份的酒液不尽人意,我们的忠<br />

实客户仍不乏特极香槟可享用。混酿真的<br />

是门艺术,动辄就要混搭上百种酒液,箇<br />

中拿捏完全取决于所要的味道。达到完美<br />

品质前,混酿需要不断修整及微调。<br />

香槟的最佳享用方式是?<br />

香槟为欣悦而生,天性使然。一般细长酒<br />

杯会掩盖香槟风味,对此我个人并不欣赏。<br />

此外香槟不宜过冷,否则细致的味道会被<br />

压抑。 Riedel 特别为我们设计了以创办人<br />

all the aspects of the Champagne to show<br />

themselves. They call it “The Joseph” after<br />

our founder. But you could also serve Krug<br />

in a white wine glass to give it a chance to<br />

reveal its flavors. As the wine warms up<br />

when you drink it, you will notice more and<br />

more aromas and flavors coming to the<br />

fore – it’s a journey, down to the last sip!<br />

It’s really about activating all the senses.<br />

Champagne is a drink that delights all<br />

the senses. When you take a sip of<br />

Champagne the first thing you do is smell<br />

it – this opens your palate and allows you<br />

to fully savor the wine. But there is more<br />

to wine than just those two senses. It<br />

looks beautiful, with the bubbles rising in<br />

the golden liquid. And there is an aural<br />

quality too – the pop of the cork, the<br />

sound as the wine is poured into a glass,<br />

and the sound of the bubbles dancing.<br />

「Joseph」为名的宽颈酒杯,能完整体现香<br />

槟的各种特色。用白酒杯也是一种选择,<br />

喝香槟就是要让人五感舒畅是吧?<br />

香槟能启动全身感官,让人通体舒畅。喝香<br />

槟第一件事就是「闻」,有助打开味觉,品<br />

所在,气泡不断从金黄色泽的香槟中冒出,<br />

着实赏心悦目。加上开瓶、倒酒及泡沫喷流<br />

起舞的声音,不斥也是一场听觉飨宴。<br />

tasting notes<br />

You have recently been exploring the<br />

realm of sound with your Champagne –<br />

tell us a little more about that.<br />

Every Champagne sounds different, but I<br />

think Krug has the most beautiful sound<br />

of all. Everyone appreciates the beauty<br />

in the sound of the sea, and as children<br />

we hold seashells to our ears to hear the<br />

roar and whoosh of the waves. I was<br />

inspired to bring that dimension – the<br />

sense of sound – to the experience of<br />

tasting Champagne, so Krug has created<br />

a beautiful conch-like shell, which fits on<br />

top of the Riedel glass. If you put your ear<br />

to the shell, it amplifies the sound of the<br />

bubbles.<br />

When you agitate the liquid, the<br />

sound becomes louder and more intense.<br />

I love to watch people’s faces when they<br />

listen to Champagne for the first time –<br />

they are so beautiful!<br />

Joseph Krug founded the Krug Champagne House in 1843 with a vision: to produce<br />

Champagne of superlative quality and to do it every year, again and again. With<br />

a background in the commercial wine trade, he felt that he owed his customers a wonderful wine regardless of the vagaries of<br />

that year’s harvest. Current Krug CEO Margareth Henriquez spoke with TK about blending vintages and senses. • 早在 1843 年,<br />

Joseph Krug 创立库克香槟酒庄 (Krug Champagne) 时就惦记着一件事 :每年都要制作出品质无可挑剔的香槟,循环往复。因<br />

为出身酒水贸易背景,他总觉得不管每年收成好坏,都应让顾客拥有绝佳的美酒享受。库克香<br />

混酿之最 感官之旅<br />

槟总裁 Margareth Henriquez 近日特别接受 TK 访问,分享混酿酒及品酒感官享受的经验谈。<br />

您最近一直钻研香槟的声音,其中故事能<br />

否和我们分享一下?<br />

每支香槟听起来都不一样,但我敢说库克<br />

声音之美,绝对数一数二。海洋之声,大<br />

家都非常推崇,小时候我们也喜欢把贝壳<br />

放耳边,聆听浪潮的翻覆呼啸。所以我就想,<br />

何不加强听觉的享受,让品尝香槟的体验<br />

更加丰富。库克因此在特制 Riedel 酒杯上<br />

加缀看似贝壳的响螺,造型相当别致。喝<br />

香槟时附耳到响螺边,泡沫声可听得一清<br />

二楚。摇晃酒杯,声音会愈加集中继而更<br />

响亮。我喜欢看大家第一次听到香槟声音<br />

的表情,真是太美好了!<br />

阴阳食补暖迎秋<br />

yin yang autumn delights<br />

City of Dreams Executive Chef Tam Kwok Fung chooses the best<br />

and healthiest ingredients for Jade Dragon’s autumn menu.<br />

“We like to do as much as we can to make<br />

our guests feel comfortable,” says Executive<br />

Chef Tam Kwok Fung of Jade Dragon Restaurant.<br />

“That includes looking after their<br />

physical well-being. Our dishes are carefully<br />

prepared in accordance with our philosophy:<br />

yin yang balance and seasonally appropriate<br />

eating. Our menu is more than just fine<br />

dining – it’s also healthy dining.”<br />

Chef Tam believes foods contain different<br />

elements that can support the body’s<br />

basic functions. Eating healthily and being<br />

mindful of the time of year, climate and<br />

available ingredients gives people a greater<br />

chance to feel fit and well all year round.<br />

“Autumn in Southern China is when the<br />

weather becomes drier, less humid. We need<br />

moister food to counteract the changing conditions.<br />

The perfect foods for autumn are<br />

mildly nourishing and slightly warming, but<br />

tend not to have really strong flavors.”<br />

“This is a sea conch, caught locally,” says<br />

Tam, presenting a foot-long, pointed and<br />

convoluted sea snail with a pale green shell.<br />

The flesh inside is peach-colored. “The meat<br />

is very sweet. Conch is popular in the South<br />

of China but is very much a deluxe product.”<br />

Tam makes sure nothing is wasted from this<br />

special creature: “If we have a large conch<br />

like this, we make two dishes. We take the<br />

meat out, peel and slice it, then stir fry. We<br />

use the skin for double-boiled soup.”<br />

Tam has created a delicious soup, perfect<br />

「誉珑轩」行政总厨谭国锋在谈到餐厅理念<br />

时表示 :「我们竭尽所能让顾客舒服自在,<br />

像是以各种对健康有益的食材入菜方面,<br />

我们便下了极大的功夫。在我们餐厅,任<br />

何一道菜的准备功夫都马虎不得,就是希<br />

望能展现阴阳平衡和时令餐饮等两大经营<br />

哲学。我们的菜色不仅精致,更是健康饮<br />

食的代名词。」<br />

谭国锋深信,食物蕴含的不同元素可<br />

作为人体机能运作的后盾。饮食健康,留<br />

心时节递换及气候转变,适度食用季节食<br />

材都有助身心平衡,让人整年维持在最佳<br />

状态。 「时序进入秋天,中国南部潮湿天<br />

候逐渐远离、变得干燥,需要适时多摄取<br />

饱含水分的食材。营养丰富、略微温热且<br />

味道适中的食材最适合于秋天品尝。」<br />

Executive Chinese Chef Tam Kwok Fung 中菜行政总厨谭国锋<br />

for the changing season, by adding chicken<br />

stock and sliced ginger to the conch meat.<br />

“We use ginger to make the soup a little<br />

warming. We keep it simple – no serious<br />

herbs or seasonings, just the natural seafood<br />

flavor, a slight meaty back-taste from<br />

the chicken and some ginger to lift it. Great<br />

for balancing the body’s condition.”<br />

Conch is one of many treasures swimming<br />

around near the coast of Southern<br />

China, where the fresh waters of the Pearl<br />

River estuary dilute the deep salty ocean. “In<br />

the old days people sat on the steam boat<br />

between Hong Kong and Macau for hours,<br />

just so they could buy our local crabs and<br />

carry them home in their bamboo baskets.<br />

The taste of Macau crab is natural and succulent<br />

– the waters are rich in feed for the<br />

fish and this gives a juicy quality to the meat.<br />

We have lionhead fish too which you can find<br />

in the wet markets here. They are expensive,<br />

but the flavor and texture of them is something<br />

you will never forget! And then there<br />

are the prawns. South China Sea prawns<br />

have great texture – both tender and chewy.<br />

Nowadays there is a focus on farmed food<br />

and fish, but I don’t agree with it. I prefer<br />

natural, wild-caught food. It tastes better.”<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

South China Sea prawns are the main<br />

focus of another of Tam’s autumn dishes. A<br />

lacy basket made from translucent rice flour<br />

holds pink prawns, shiny walnuts studded<br />

with tiny sesame seeds, and gleaming chive<br />

shoots. This beautiful dish has a fresh and<br />

delicious aroma. Made with local produce,<br />

it’s light-flavored yet deeply satisfying.<br />

“Prawns are a good source of protein,”<br />

says Tam. “The combination of fish and<br />

chives is naturally warming. Chives come<br />

from the garlic family and are reputed to<br />

defend against cold, bacteria and germs. As<br />

for walnuts – well, the Chinese believe that<br />

they are a healing food, good for the brain<br />

and kidneys. We toast the walnuts with some<br />

brown sugar in the wok, then fry them for<br />

two minutes. When you roast nuts with a<br />

little brown sugar it makes them more nourishing<br />

for the body. Perfect for autumn!”<br />

Chef Tam summarizes Jade Dragon’s<br />

cooking philosophy: “It is better to eat right<br />

on a daily basis than to wait until you get sick<br />

and rely on medicines. Daily consumption<br />

of good, nourishing food will balance your<br />

body’s condition. Choosing the right food<br />

for the season should help keep you healthy<br />

throughout the year.”<br />

总厨拿起了只长约一尺的响螺、螺壳<br />

外突、呈盘旋状,带着白绿色泽,螺肉颜<br />

色则像蜜桃般娇嫩。他说 :「螺肉很甜,在<br />

中国南部算是很受欢迎的顶级食材。」 在<br />

「誉珑轩」,这般大小的海螺通常会做成两<br />

道菜,一道把肉取出、去皮切片后下锅爆炒,<br />

皮则放于炖汤,物尽其用。<br />

为了迎合季节变换,谭国锋使用螺肉、<br />

鸡汤及姜片熬煮独门汤品,美味非常。他<br />

也大方分享制作秘诀 :「姜可让汤喝起来较<br />

暖,除此之外一切简单至上,无须添加特<br />

别的药草或调味品,便能喝得到海鲜的原<br />

味,另外在姜的提味下,还尝得到些许鸡<br />

肉香甜的余韵,对于身体状况平衡大有益<br />

处!」<br />

中国南部沿海地区与珠江交会,偏咸<br />

的海水受到稀释,孕育出许多近海珍馐,<br />

海螺便是其中之一。 「以前有不少人习惯<br />

搭蒸气船往返港澳,花上数小时就是为了<br />

采买我们当地的螃蟹,再用竹篓整笼带回。<br />

澳门蟹滋味天然、水分饱满,且拜此区水<br />

中生物繁多所赐,栖息的鱼类肥美,肉质<br />

多汁。这里的生鲜湿货市场也找得到狮头<br />

鱼,虽然价格不菲,但味道及肉质让人一<br />

试难忘!南中国海出产的明虾也绝对不能<br />

错过,软嫩中带有嚼劲,口感极佳。现在<br />

许多养殖食物或鱼类大行其道,但我总无<br />

法苟同,还是偏爱天然、野生捕捉的食材,<br />

吃起来滋味更足。」<br />

韭菜花合桃炒斗门花竹虾正是谭国锋<br />

秋季菜单中的另一个亮点。红粉的明虾、带<br />

有亮泽的合桃,缀以芝麻及透亮的葱芽,置<br />

于糯米粉制成的花边透明篮篓中,相当别致,<br />

散发清新且诱人的香气。使用的俱是地方农<br />

产食材,口味清淡,却让人一尝倾心。<br />

谈到这道菜,谭国锋表示 :「花竹虾富<br />

含蛋白质,另外鱼肉加上细葱有天然温热<br />

的效果。细葱与大蒜系出同门,都有祛寒、<br />

遏止细菌及病毒的功效。至于合桃,中国<br />

人视为具疗效的食材,对于大脑及肾脏特<br />

别好。我们在铁锅中加入合桃及些许黑糖<br />

烘烤,再拌炒两分钟即可。坚果类加点黑<br />

糖过烤,有助释放出对人体有营养的成分,<br />

正是秋季菜式的不二之选!」<br />

总结「誉珑轩」的餐饮理念,谭国锋说:<br />

「相较于病起求医,每天的正确饮食显得更<br />

为重要。摄取品质良好、营养丰富的食物对<br />

于保持身心健康平衡极有裨益。顺应时节吃<br />

的好、吃的对,可保经年健康无虞。」<br />

At Galaxy Macau ’ s Gosto, Chef de Cuisine Mario Gil’s<br />

new menu showcases the fabulous seafood of Portugal.<br />

“Portugal is famous for its seafood,”<br />

says Gosto Chef de Cuisine Mario Gil.<br />

“It’s a seaside country with a lot of shoreline<br />

and I think that is what distinguishes<br />

Portuguese from other European cuisines.<br />

The new menu will really focus on that.”<br />

Since taking over at Galaxy<br />

Macau’s Gosto in April 2013,<br />

Chef Mario has been busy<br />

designing a new menu,<br />

set to be launched in<br />

late October. It will<br />

showcase traditional<br />

Portuguese dishes,<br />

current Macanese<br />

favorites, and modern<br />

twists on both. Plenty of<br />

Portugal’s famous seafood<br />

dishes are included.<br />

“I do like to work with fish<br />

– it is very versatile, you can do<br />

so much with it,” he says. “I love<br />

the fact that it is very delicate<br />

and demanding to work with,<br />

so you really have to focus. If<br />

you overwork it or overcook it, the flavors<br />

disappear.”<br />

It’s impossible to talk about Portuguese<br />

seafood without mentioning the ubiquitous<br />

bacalhau, and a variety of salted cod dishes<br />

feature on the new menu, including Deep<br />

Fried Cod Fish Balls with Chickpea Salad.<br />

豪表示 :「葡萄牙靠海,海岸线绵长,海鲜<br />

也赫赫有名,造就葡萄牙菜别于其他欧陆<br />

料理,独树一格的美味。海鲜正是我们全<br />

新系列菜色的聚焦所在。」<br />

马俊杰于 2013 年 4 月接掌葡轩后,无<br />

处理鱼类需要细工,没两把刷<br />

行。处理或蒸煮过度都可能会<br />

令鱼的鲜味尽失。」<br />

说到葡萄牙海鲜,绝对不<br />

能漏掉的就是无所不在的国民食材马介休<br />

(bacalhau),也正是马总厨的拿手食材之一。<br />

在新菜单上你能找到包括马介休球佐鸡心<br />

豆沙拉等多种马介休美食。 马总厨表示 :<br />

「马介休球和鸡心豆沙拉都是常见的前菜,<br />

但甚少放在一起上桌。我这次用现代手法<br />

将两者融合,以崭新风貌上桌,却又丝毫<br />

不减彼此的风味。 」<br />

马介休,我们都称它为『最好的朋友』。」<br />

走遍澳门各地的葡式餐厅,几乎都能<br />

看到马介休的踪影,但为了配合当地饕客<br />

的口味,马总厨于准备过程中有稍做调整。<br />

「味道太咸本地人吃不习惯,所以我小调了<br />

一下,做出本地饕客喜欢的口味。一般作<br />

法是让马介休在水中浸超过 48 小时,以略<br />

减咸味 ;但在我们餐厅时间拉更长,才不<br />

会那么咸,有时会到 50 甚或 52 小时,但<br />

再过可就不行了,味道可能会跑掉。」<br />

以传统半球形铜锅炖煮而成的经典葡<br />

也是新菜单上的一大亮点。<br />

「海鲜煲集各式海洋美味精华于一身,<br />

包括蛤蛎、淡菜、明虾及三种鱼类。通常<br />

是放在一起炖煮,但为了保留个别食材的<br />

美味,我特别分开处理后再组合上桌,尝<br />

得到鱼肉的鲜美,也吃得出淡菜的滋味。<br />

一起煮的话味道容易混淆,剩下的只有强<br />

烈的海鲜味道。但在我们餐厅,各种美味<br />

尽能品尝。」<br />

总厨也特别推荐烤肉肠、鸡杂及咖喱<br />

蟹等葡萄牙风味小菜 “pesticos”。 马总厨特<br />

starters. I combine them and present<br />

them in a more modern way,” says Chef<br />

Mario. “But the flavors are all still there.”<br />

“In Portugal we say we have 1,001<br />

recipes for bacalhau. If you are outside<br />

of Portugal and you are representing<br />

Portuguese cuisine, then you must have<br />

bacalhau on the menu. We call it our best<br />

friend.”<br />

Chef Mario alters the preparation<br />

slightly to suit local tastes. “Here diners<br />

don’t like things quite so salty, so I have<br />

adapted to suit the local palette,” he says.<br />

“Usually bacalhau rests in water for 48<br />

hours to lessen the salt content, but here<br />

we have to leave it in for longer so that it is<br />

not as salty. Sometimes we leave it in for 50<br />

to 52 hours, but it can’t be much more than<br />

that or you really lose the flavor.”<br />

The new menu also features his<br />

country’s classic cataplana, a robust seafood<br />

stew cooked in a traditional domed copper<br />

vessel.<br />

“The cataplana combines everything our<br />

shore gives us – clams, mussels, prawns,<br />

and three different types of fish. Typically<br />

it’s a stew, but I cook everything separately<br />

and then combine it all in order to maintain<br />

all the individual flavors. The fish will taste<br />

like fish, the mussels will taste like mussels.<br />

If you put everything in together, flavors get<br />

lost and you may only taste the strongest<br />

seafood. This way, you taste everything.”<br />

Chef Mario is also introducing petiscos –<br />

Portuguese tapas – such as roasted chorizo,<br />

chicken giblets, and curry crab. “This is my<br />

interpretation of the traditional Macanese<br />

dish,” Chef Mario says of the crab. “The<br />

flavor will be a little bit lighter so that you<br />

can really taste the crab. Too much curry<br />

can really overpower this delicate flavor.”<br />

Although Chef Mario is new to Gosto,<br />

he has a supportive team of chefs behind<br />

him. “My team here is really committed to<br />

this new menu,” he says. “I encourage my<br />

chefs to focus on the flavors and to taste<br />

and taste and taste again. We have new<br />

dishes, a new menu, and we’re ready to<br />

present the best of Portugal.”<br />

“If you are outside of Portugal and you<br />

are representing Portuguese cuisine,<br />

then you must have bacalhau on the<br />

menu. We call it our best friend.”<br />

Setiawan and Assistant Beverage<br />

Manager for Banyan Tree Andy Tam<br />

The rare BriTTany Blue loBsTers have<br />

come out of hiding and Belon Chef de Cuisine<br />

Robby Setiawan is taking full advantage<br />

of their bravado. “September and October<br />

are the only months to catch them,” he<br />

says. “By November, they’ve disappeared<br />

for another year.”<br />

Lobsters are usually a motley mix of<br />

green and brown, but these Brittany Blues<br />

have a distinct blue tint and are prized for<br />

being sweeter and tastier than their Boston<br />

counterparts. “The blue lobster is much<br />

richer in flavor,” Robby says. “You can taste<br />

the ocean.”<br />

To showcase the rich distinct flavor of<br />

these prize lobsters, Chef Robby has created<br />

a set menu featuring fresh tartar, lobster<br />

bisque, and a beef spare rib ‘surf ‘n’ turf.’<br />

For those who prefer their lobster straight<br />

up, steamed or grilled whole lobsters can be<br />

selected from the carving trolley.<br />

The indigo-tinged beauties are best paired<br />

with Krug champagne, advises Andy Tam,<br />

Assistant Beverage Manager for Banyan Tree<br />

Macau. “This Krug is non-vintage and has<br />

been aged in the bottle for six years,” he says.<br />

“It makes the flavors much more intense.<br />

Grilled lobster really brings out the smoky<br />

charcoal characteristics of the champagne.<br />

It’s really perfectly paired with something<br />

so delicate.”<br />

“Lobster doesn’t have to be difficult<br />

to work with,” says Robby. “You just need<br />

to understand the lobster and respect the<br />

ingredients. If you cook it too long you will<br />

ruin the flavor and the texture and you’ll get<br />

nothing. Treat them nice, and they will be<br />

good to you!”<br />

龙虾通常是绿色及棕色混杂,但蓝龙<br />

肉质较波士顿龙虾来得鲜甜美味而大受饕<br />

客喜爱。 石志云形容 :「味道非常丰富,<br />

为了让饕客品尝蓝龙虾的各式美味,<br />

法国顶级香槟 Krug :「这支酒是不记年香<br />

槟,陈酿大概六年,味道非常浓纯。烧烤<br />

龙虾正好诱发出香槟酝酿的烟熏焦炭风味。<br />

Krug 与肉质细嫩的龙虾可说是天作之合。」<br />

总厨也大方分享料理龙虾的心得 :「烹<br />

煮龙虾也可以很简单,重点是要对龙虾有<br />

若烹煮时间过长,食材便会失去了其味道<br />

Slow Burner<br />

Goose Barnacles 鹅颈藤壶<br />

The goose barnacle, with its distinctive rings of black<br />

around a hard, bone-like shell, has been described as looking<br />

like a dinosaur’s claw. Found stubbornly attached to rocks and<br />

flotsam off the coast of Barcelona, they must be collected by<br />

hand, sometimes at great hazard in the crashing surf. Even<br />

after being rinsed, scrubbed, packed in ice, and then shipped<br />

by air, many arrive at kitchens still clinging to the rocks on<br />

which they were found.<br />

Goose barnacles have been enjoyed in Spain and<br />

Portugal for centuries, where they are boiled in salt water and<br />

eaten as tapas, with the tubular skin peeled back to reveal<br />

the springy, stretchy pink neck meat. The harder outside<br />

shell is left on as a useful handle for dipping in aioli, a type of<br />

garlicky Provençal sauce.<br />

While the Spanish might know when they are on to<br />

a good thing, international acceptance has been mixed.<br />

Once touted as the next big thing in upscale dining, goose<br />

barnacles have never really caught on outside of Iberia. In<br />

recent years fine food wholesalers have reported an uptick in<br />

interest from some tonier Asian restaurants, but demand for<br />

this underrated morsel is still criminally modest. No matter:<br />

that leaves more for the rest of us.<br />

黑色环圈,甚至有人以恐龙脚来形容其独<br />

特造型。鹅颈藤壶栖息于巴塞隆纳沿岸海<br />

域,顽强吸附在岩石或船只残骸上,因此<br />

仅能以人力采集,碰到海浪来势凶猛时,<br />

作业环境也变得相当险峻。经过冲洗、刷揉、<br />

冰库装箱,即便最后空运到餐厅,许多鹅<br />

颈藤壶仍紧紧依附于石头上。<br />

西班牙人及葡萄牙人食用鹅颈藤壶已<br />

有数百年历史,通常是以盐水汆烫后作为小<br />

菜享用。去掉管状外皮,就能看到弹牙且口<br />

感扎实的粉色颈肉,拿着坚硬的外壳可将颈<br />

肉佐以普罗旺斯蒜味酱汁「aioli」食用。<br />

鹅颈藤壶虽然在西班牙很受欢迎,但<br />

在其他国家的回响却是相当两极。虽然一<br />

度被捧为高级餐饮界的新星,但似乎仍走<br />

不出伊比利半岛。但近几年在高级食材批<br />

发商的推波助澜下,似乎出现了转机,不<br />

少时尚亚洲餐厅对鹅颈藤壶的兴趣渐浓,<br />

不过真正下手的仍是少之又少。但这样也<br />

好 :意味着我们有更多机会品尝这备受低<br />

估的美味食材。<br />

陽光饗宴<br />

A lace in the Sun<br />

Tarbouriech Oysters 生蚝<br />

IT Is TempTIng to dismiss the distinctive pinkish hue of the<br />

Tarbouriech oyster shell as nothing more than a marketing<br />

gimmick, a swipe of blush on a beauty queen. After all, what<br />

can the merest tint of pink really reveal about the flesh within?<br />

As it happens, quite a lot.<br />

Tarbouriech oysters hail from Bassin de Thau, a tideless<br />

lagoon near Marseille in the South of France. Many other oyster<br />

farmers have their bases in these waters, but a unique farming<br />

technique makes the Tarbouriech special. At intermittent<br />

periods throughout the day, a solar-operated mechanism lifts<br />

the oyster frames out of the water, exposing each precious<br />

oyster to the sunshine in an attempt to recreate a natural tidal<br />

environment.<br />

Exposure to light and oxygen forces oysters to produce<br />

glycogen, which in turn causes the muscle to become denser<br />

and “nuttier” in taste. Chefs praise the Tarbouriech for its almost<br />

chewy texture. The sunshine is also responsible for adding the<br />

trademark rosy hue to each shell.<br />

The benefit of this farming system is twofold: not only<br />

is the taste improved, but it also breeds into the oysters a<br />

hardiness and adaptability to environmental changes, allowing<br />

them to survive much longer in transit than ordinary oysters. A<br />

definite plus, considering the distances each oyster must travel<br />

to fulfill burgeoning demand in all four corners of the globe.<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

Tarbouriech 生蚝的粉色蚝壳独树一格,<br />

犹如美人脸颊的一抹红晕,但拿来当作行<br />

销的亮点似乎仍有点勉强。毕竟单凭外<br />

壳的颜色难以保证蚝肉也同样粉嫩诱人,<br />

不过打开之后却是里外如一,令人惊艳。<br />

Tarbouriech 生蚝产自法国南部大城<br />

马赛附近一处水波不兴的泻湖「Bassin<br />

de Thau」。在此也有许多其他种类的生<br />

蚝养殖场,但 Tarbouriech 生蚝却有一点<br />

与众不同 :一天当中固定时期,太阳能<br />

启动的机器会将养殖架自水中升起,让<br />

每颗生蚝都能晒到太阳,模拟自然的潮<br />

汐环境。<br />

吸收阳光及氧气让生蚝产生肝<br />

糖,使肉质结实,坚果味更为浓郁。<br />

Tarbouriech 生蚝近乎弹牙的口感备受大<br />

厨的好评,蚝壳上的招牌玫瑰色泽也是<br />

受阳光恩赐。<br />

此种特殊养殖技术有两种好处,一<br />

则让美味升级,同时也加强生蚝适应环<br />

境改变的能耐,运输途中的存活率比起<br />

一般生蚝高出许多。时值全球五大洲对<br />

于生蚝需求遽增,能长途旅行无虞的生<br />

蚝确实是一大优势。

深海之后<br />

Deep Sea Diva<br />

Obsiblue Prawns 蓝虾<br />

precIous, cosseTed and perfecTly formed, it is no<br />

wonder Obsiblue prawns are often referred to as the “Rolls<br />

Royce” of their species. A pretty, almost translucent blue,<br />

with a dark tail, long delicate tentacles and superb pearl grey<br />

flesh, in no more than ten years they have risen from Coral<br />

Sea obscurity to become a versatile fine-dining staple. What<br />

triggered this ascent to superstardom?<br />

Perhaps the explanation is that Obsiblue prawns are<br />

special from the start. Farmed in low-density cages located<br />

in a pristine natural lagoon off the coast of New Caledonia<br />

in Eastern Australia, the spacious living arrangements<br />

and crystal clear waters ensure that each prawn grows<br />

unstressed to full size. Growth hormones, antibiotics and<br />

artificial substances of any kind are banned from their<br />

environment. As with any blossoming diva, it simply wouldn’t<br />

do to rush an Obsiblue along: they are given nine leisurely<br />

months to reach maturity, as opposed to three for a standard<br />

restaurant prawn.<br />

To obtain Obsiblue classification, each prawn must be<br />

caught, individually examined, and transported as a flawless<br />

whole. The merest imperfection has them ruthlessly culled<br />

from the lot.<br />

The result is an elegant, unblemished outer shell, and<br />

flesh with both a complex sweetness and bouncy firmness,<br />

especially when eaten raw. Once tasted, the question is not<br />

why Obsiblue prawns are on every Michelin-star menu, but<br />

why it took so long.<br />

珍贵异常、备受青睐,各方各面均无懈可<br />

击,无怪乎 Obsiblue 蓝虾享有虾中「劳斯<br />

莱斯」的美名。蓝虾带着近乎透明的青蓝<br />

色泽、虾尾颜色转暗、一对虾须细致又长,<br />

加上蕴含珍珠光泽的灰色虾肉,使其不到<br />

十年的时间便从澳洲珊瑚海默默无闻的食<br />

材跃升为顶级餐厅的新宠。 Obsiblue 蓝虾<br />

有何魅力短时间窜红晋升为明星食材呢?<br />

细列原因,第一点可能是 Obsiblue 蓝<br />

虾原本就独树一格,养殖于东澳新克里多<br />

尼亚沿岸水质纯净的泻湖,每笼仅放入少<br />

量蓝虾,让每只虾能在宽阔的环境及清澈<br />

的水质中毫无压力的养殖至成年体型。生<br />

长激素、抗生素及任何人造补给物均严格<br />

禁止。蓝虾也如培养绝代女伶般,非一朝<br />

一夕可成 :比起一般餐厅用虾子三个月的<br />

成长期,蓝虾可是有悠悠漫长九月龄的生<br />

长期。<br />

每只蓝虾都需个别检查、全虾运送、<br />

务求完美,才够格成为 Obsiblue 的一员。<br />

若有一丝瑕疵便只能接受无情淘汰的命运。<br />

出产的每批蓝虾都是品质保证,拥有<br />

漂亮无瑕的外壳及鲜甜、弹牙扎实并俱的<br />

口感,生吃时更能体验其美妙滋味。吃过<br />

的人必定对 Obsiblue 蓝虾身为米其林餐厅<br />

的必备珍馐毫无疑问,只想问等候佳肴的<br />

时间为何如此天长地久!<br />

天然美味用途多<br />

eed and Reap<br />

Seaweed 海草<br />

IT can be drIed in the sun, baked, pan-fried, ground to<br />

powder, boiled, or eaten fresh. Farmers don’t have to plant<br />

it, or water it – if you are lucky enough to live near a beach,<br />

you can collect it for free on your morning walk and have<br />

it salad-ready by lunch. Nutritionists agree that it’s packed<br />

with vitamins and essential minerals. It has a unique, natural,<br />

sweet and salty flavor. Depending on the variety, it can offer<br />

a unique summery kick to seafood dishes. Roasted, it has a<br />

wonderful savory flavor.<br />

It’s versatile, healthy and delicious. If you’re not already in<br />

the habit of rejoicing at the joys of seaweed, it’s time to start.<br />

Most edible types of seaweed can be broadly divided<br />

into three categories: brown, green and red. Brown seaweeds,<br />

like Wakame, hail from temperate and arctic waters and are a<br />

common element of Japanese cooking.<br />

Green seaweeds, sometimes known as sea lettuce,<br />

include varieties such as Kombu Breton and Kombu Royal.<br />

Also a core ingredient of Japanese cuisine, green seaweeds<br />

are used to add extra texture to soups and salads, and that<br />

certain savory flavor the Japanese call “Umami” or the “fifth<br />

flavor.”<br />

In the red corner are seaweeds that are slightly sweeter<br />

and often eaten crispy and dry. Dulse, a champion grower<br />

found on the northern shores of the Atlantic and Pacific<br />

Oceans, is used in Iceland in the place of tortilla chips, or<br />

eaten warm and slathered in butter. Not bad for a weed.<br />

海草有上百种加工方法,晒干、烘烤、干<br />

煎、磨粉、汆烫或直接生吃。不用费心栽<br />

种或浇水-幸运一点住海边的话,甚至早<br />

上散步采一些海草回家,中午就可以当沙<br />

拉享用了。海草也有营养师背书,富含多<br />

种维他命及必要矿物质,味道天然、鲜甜,<br />

带有咸味,独树一格。不同种类更能为海<br />

鲜料理带来独一无二的夏日风情。网烤处<br />

理则会散发扑鼻的开胃香气。<br />

海草用途百变、美味,对健康极有益<br />

处。还没习惯吃海草、大啖海草美味的人,<br />

现在开始还不晚。<br />

绝大部分食用海草可分为三类 :棕海<br />

草、绿海草及红海草。前者类似日本人常<br />

吃的「Wakame」海菜,生长于北极圈较<br />

为温暖的海域,为日式料理常见的食材。<br />

绿海草有时称为海白菜,包括布瑞顿<br />

(Breton) 昆布及皇家 (Royal) 昆布等多个<br />

种类。日式料理常用昆布为汤品或沙拉增<br />

添味道,此一独到风味日本人称为「鲜味<br />

(Umami)」或「第五味」。<br />

相较之下,红海草较甜,常烘干食用,<br />

口感酥脆。生长于大西洋及太平洋北岸的<br />

品种「Dulse」品质一流,冰岛人习惯和着<br />

玉米饼,或沾一大层奶油温温的吃,也算<br />

物尽其用了。<br />

法国制造<br />

French Connection<br />

Brittany Sea Urchin 布列塔尼海胆<br />

ThIs sea urchIn’s journey begins in the cool waters around<br />

a peninsula jutting off the coast of Brittany, France. The<br />

commune of Quiberon is famous not only for urchins, but also<br />

as the spiritual home of a frequently overlooked contribution<br />

to world cuisine: the tinned sardine. In the early 19 th century,<br />

Quiberon was the home of a brilliant French chemist called<br />

Nicolas Appert, who revolutionized the way the world eats<br />

with his technique of preserving fish by placing it in boiled,<br />

airtight tins.<br />

By contrast, the local method of collecting urchins is still<br />

decidedly low-tech. With its white shell beaches, salty sea<br />

breezes and charming ancient fishing villages, Quiberon in the<br />

summer months is a laid-back seaside resort. But come winter,<br />

as the sea breezes turn to icy winds straight off the Bay of<br />

Biscay, the hardy Quiberonnais foot fishermen get to work.<br />

October to April is sea urchin season, and a select few<br />

local fishermen are permitted to collect, by hand, a strictly<br />

enforced quota of the creatures. Licenses are difficult to<br />

obtain and easy to lose. Few fishermen risk their livelihood<br />

for the sake of a few extra Euros.<br />

There is a marvelous French expression that references<br />

the sea urchin’s sharp defensive spines and is used to describe<br />

someone who is tight-fisted with his money: “Il a des oursins<br />

dans les poches!” (He has urchins in his pockets!) Such dining<br />

companions are best avoided if you wish to order Brittany<br />

sea urchins. With a distinctively tangy yet smooth flavor<br />

like nothing else from the sea, they continue to command a<br />

handsome fee everywhere they go.<br />

法国布列塔尼沿岸某处突出半岛邻近的<br />

冷水海域,是为此种海胆旅程的起点。<br />

Quiberon 行政区有名的不仅是海胆,也<br />

是罐装沙丁鱼的故乡,虽鲜为人所知,却<br />

是全球餐饮文化中不可或缺的要角之一。<br />

十九世纪曾居住於 Quiberon 的聪明法国化<br />

学家 Nicolas Appert 首创以煮沸的密闭锡<br />

罐保存鱼肉,为世界饮食历史带来革命性<br />

的影响。<br />

相较之下,当地采集海胆的方式仍然<br />

相当原始。 优美的白沙滩、咸味海风及怀<br />

古风情的渔村景致,让 Quiberon 在夏日时<br />

光里成为悠闲的海边度假圣地。但时序进<br />

入冬天,比斯开湾吹来的海风冰寒彻骨,<br />

却正是当地吃苦耐劳的渔夫们开始工作的<br />

时节。<br />

十月到四月为海胆产季,仅有少数获<br />

准的渔夫得以用双手采集为数有限的海胆。<br />

采集证照不仅难以取得,一不小心更会失<br />

去采集资格,少有渔夫愿意为了多赚那几<br />

块钱卖命下海。<br />

法文中有句话以海胆尖锐的刺骨为譬<br />

喻,用以形容人一毛不拔可说是活灵活现 :<br />

「Il a des oursins dans les poches!( 他口袋<br />

中有海胆 )」,要找这种人去餐厅大啖布列<br />

塔尼海胆的话,可要三思。海胆味道浓呛<br />

却又滑顺,找不到其他海鲜与之比拟,不<br />

管在哪品尝可都所费不赀。<br />

吓人外表 极致美味<br />

Armed and Delicious<br />

Scorpion Fish 天蝎鱼<br />

The name ITself inspires trepidation – is it really worth<br />

experimenting with the flesh of such a creature for the sake<br />

of an original seafood experience? Fiercely orange, slimy, and<br />

armed with savage-looking teeth and venom-covered spikes,<br />

its appearance isn’t exactly welcoming. The roe and internal<br />

organs are deadly poisonous. Some species in the scorpion<br />

fish family have been uninvitingly described as the “world’s<br />

deadliest” fish. Hardly a gourmet’s delight.<br />

But to dismiss the scorpion fish too quickly is to miss the<br />

point that in this case, the end may in fact justify the means.<br />

Caught by line from the depths of tropical or temperate<br />

seas, particularly off the coasts of Eastern Australia and<br />

Spain, its finely-grained white flesh is tender and juicy,<br />

not too oily and not too dry. It is firm and robust enough<br />

to make an excellent ingredient in just about any dish,<br />

holding up particularly well in pasta, but doing just as nicely<br />

pan-fried. Scorpion fish is flavorsome and slightly sweet,<br />

not unlike grouper, never so brash as to overpower more<br />

delicate ingredients. In short, a scorpion fish tastes a lot more<br />

welcoming than it looks, and it’s the perfect fish for a chef to<br />

use to demonstrate his or her skills.<br />

So don’t let the spikes scare you away. Or if you do<br />

decide to play it safe and toss the scorpion fish into the toochallenging<br />

basket, just make sure you’re wearing protective<br />

gloves.<br />

天蝎鱼一如其名,让人听来心生畏惧,真有<br />

需要为了尝鲜拿这种高难度的鱼类来开刀<br />

吗?天蝎鱼的橘红色泽挑衅意味十足,加上<br />

黏滑的身躯、血盆大口内的锋利牙齿以及含<br />

有剧毒的尖刺,确实叫人退步三舍。天蝎鱼<br />

卵及内脏满是致命剧毒,同科鱼类下更有数<br />

种名列「全球最致命」排行榜,再怎么想都<br />

难以和老饕的盘中美味划上等号。<br />

但可别急着下定论,说不定最后会出<br />

现意想不到的结果。<br />

天蝎鱼一般以延绳捕捞,它们栖息在<br />

东澳及西班牙沿海热带或温热的深海海域,<br />

白色的鱼肉纹理细致、软嫩多汁,不油不柴、<br />

肥瘦间隔得宜。天蝎鱼质地扎实、风味独具,<br />

搭配各式料理都有水准以上的表现,除了<br />

拌制意大利面外,香煎处理也非常美味。<br />

天蝎鱼味道丰富、带些许甜味,与石斑一<br />

样能与他种细嫩食材调和,交汇彼此。总<br />

的来说,天蝎鱼虽然外表吓人,但吃来让<br />

人惊艳,对于欲大展身手的大厨们,也是<br />

能一显高超技巧的绝佳食材。<br />

所以可别让满身尖刺给吓跑了!或真<br />

觉得难度太高、只求安全过关的话,拿走<br />

天蝎鱼的时候可千万记得戴着手套,别受<br />

伤了。<br />

With this classic dish, Chef Pino uses mild-flavored white sturgeon caviar. The light, subtle flavors of<br />

the dish find their perfect complement in the crystal-clear floral notes of the Belle Epoque 2004. The<br />

Chardonnay in Perrier-Jouët’s blend provides a mineral backbone; Pinot Noir adds complexity; and<br />

the effervescent delicacy of the Champagne makes this an ideal pairing.<br />

caviar sauce. “The radish is quite sweet so it balances well with the briny<br />

taste of the caviar, and it goes perfectly with the poached lobster,” he<br />

says. The nutty, buttery flavor of the Russian caviar is pierced by the<br />

light acidity of the Belle Epoque Rosé 2004, and the flavors of dish and<br />

Champagne alike linger silkily on the palate.<br />

fishy business<br />

Dot Cod Executive Chef Arron Rhodes searches the<br />

globe for the best seafood, and has plenty of interesting<br />

ideas about what to do with it when he finds it.<br />

Two recTangles of juicy pink fish with<br />

crispy skin lie on a mattress of freshly shelled<br />

peas and broad beans. Crisp white asparagus<br />

tips, decorated with tendrils of slender<br />

pea shoots, stand like sentries on the plate.<br />

Baby beetroot leaves add color. “This is<br />

Arctic char,” says DotCod Executive Chef<br />

Arron Rhodes. “The texture and flavor is<br />

somewhere between salmon and trout,<br />

with a little taste of white fish in there too.<br />

I sourced this char from a small fishing village<br />

on a little outcrop of islands just off the<br />

east coast of Norway. As soon as the fishermen<br />

catch it, it’s on a plane to us, so it’s<br />

really fresh.”<br />

Chef Arron is very particular about the<br />

fish he serves. “Always buy a fish whole,”<br />

he says. “Then you can see that the gills are<br />

pink, the eyes are clear and the skin is shiny.<br />

And it should smell fresh too.” He checks all<br />

the fish that comes into the restaurant and<br />

if it doesn’t pass his test, it won’t be on the<br />

menu that day. “I’m very strict about that,”<br />

he laughs, “but I am flexible about what I<br />

buy too. If I see something really lovely and<br />

fresh, I will buy it and offer it to the guests<br />

that day. I like to surprise them.”<br />

Arron has fun in his kitchen. He loves<br />

to experiment with new flavors and dishes<br />

which he brings to the guests as a surprise<br />

course. “I call them ‘chef snacks,’” he says.<br />

“We have a range of special miniature dishes<br />

and glasses to serve them in, so they look<br />

really good. It’s a great way to see how customers<br />

respond to the new ideas I have.”<br />

He describes a fish lollipop he invented,<br />

mixing tuna with white chocolate and rolling<br />

两块方整多汁、呈粉红光泽的鱼肉外皮酥<br />

脆,平铺于新鲜去壳的豌豆及蚕豆上。清<br />

脆白透的芦笋尖从细嫩豆芽的盘根错节中<br />

昂然立起,就像站哨的卫兵一般,接着再<br />

放上一些幼甜菜根叶增添色泽。 Dot Cod<br />

行政总厨 Arron Rhodes 表示 :「这是北极鲑<br />

鱼,口感和滋味介于鲑鱼和鳟鱼之间,还<br />

带着些许白鱼的味道。这鱼是我从挪威东<br />

海岸的一个离海小岛渔村找来的,鱼被捕<br />

获后立即空运直送,新鲜有保证。」<br />

对于鱼类料理,总厨有特别的坚持,<br />

他强调 :「一定要整条鱼买下来,才能看到<br />

鱼鳃是否粉嫩、眼睛够不够清澈,并观察<br />

鱼皮的亮泽程度,当然闻起来也一定要新<br />

鲜才行。」每条送到餐厅的鱼他都会从头到<br />

尾检查一番,未能通过他的法眼,自然也<br />

上不了当日菜单。他笑着说 :「对新鲜我非<br />

常有要求,至于要进什么种类的鱼我倒是<br />

很乐意尝试。看到诱人且新鲜的食材我就<br />

会买,当天就端上桌当成给客人的惊喜。」<br />

Arron 在厨房总能自得其乐,喜欢试验<br />

新的味道,出来的成果端上桌每每让客人大<br />

呼惊喜。他透露:「我都叫这些菜是总厨小点,<br />

装盛于我们餐厅特别准备的各式缩小版杯盘<br />

中,非常别致,卖相极佳,也可以当作是为<br />

我的创意料理试水温,看看客人反应如何。」<br />

他以独门的鲜鱼棒棒糖为例,混搭鲔鱼及白<br />

巧克力后,用跳跳糖卷起来,入口后绽放有<br />

如火花般的口感,层次非常丰富。巧克力混<br />

搭鱼肉乍听很大胆,要能搭配的恰 到好处也<br />

有一定难度,不过总厨可不这么认为 :「巧<br />

克力搭配鱼早就不那么稀奇了。我喜欢不断<br />

尝试,手上最新的目标是混搭爪哇和尼泊尔<br />

两地独特的香料,我用的尼泊尔胡椒带有葡<br />

萄柚的气味。鱼肉质地细嫩,因此要注意味<br />

道绝对不能过重,只需一点柚香提味,就有<br />

画龙点睛之效。」

Chocolate Garden<br />

巧克力花园<br />

the resulting creation in popping candy to<br />

produce a fireworks effect in the mouth.<br />

Chocolate and fish may seem a bold and perhaps<br />

excessively challenging combination,<br />

but Rhodes is quick to disagree: “Chocolate<br />

with fish isn’t that unusual any more. I like<br />

to keep experimenting. At the moment I am<br />

working with exciting spices from Java and<br />

Nepal. The Nepalese pepper we use has a<br />

scent of grapefruit. Flavors must not be too<br />

heavy as fish is delicate – just a little aromatic<br />

kick, to lift it a bit.”<br />

Light flavors are orchestrated to create<br />

a delicious crab appetizer: miniature sweet<br />

tomatoes play counterpoint to quenelles<br />

of crab meat. Salty samphire spears (also<br />

known as sea asparagus) stand in pools of<br />

avocado puree. Cubes of tart apple jelly and<br />

a foamy mound of apple mousse add fresh<br />

orchard aromas. In the centre of the plate,<br />

resting on a sesame crumble, is a tiny deepfried<br />

Japanese river crab. “I wanted the plate<br />

to look like the crab was crawling on sand,”<br />

says Arron. “You can pick the crab up and<br />

just eat it whole – like a crispy snack.”<br />

Fish can vary within a species, depending<br />

on where they live. This presents a challenge<br />

for chefs. Sea temperature, currents, the<br />

salinity and minerality of the water all have an<br />

82<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

impact on the texture and flavor of the flesh.<br />

Salmon from the waters around Alaska, or the<br />

North of Scotland, live in rough cold waters<br />

and have to swim hard to survive. They are<br />

lean and fit as a result, with firmer meat. New<br />

Zealand King salmon has a slightly easier life<br />

– and a bigger belly to match. “We use salmon<br />

from Tasmania at Dot Cod,” says Arron. “You<br />

need to take into account how you want to<br />

cook and serve it. This particular salmon was<br />

the juiciest and softest and looked the best<br />

on a plate.” Arron loves shopping around for<br />

the best the seas can produce. “We are just<br />

trying some prawns from Madagascar,” he<br />

says with great excitement. “Prawns are everywhere<br />

– but I want to find the best. These<br />

ones are really sweet and delicious – I can’t<br />

wait to introduce them on the menu. I’m<br />

always keen to try new suppliers. It’s a competitive<br />

business and new sources appear all<br />

the time.”<br />

Choosing the right fish is just the first<br />

step to a great meal. Chef Arron elaborates:<br />

“It’s about understanding the individual<br />

ingredients in a dish – creating something<br />

with distinctive flavor and beautiful presentation.<br />

If I create a dish that someone<br />

remembers when they leave the restaurant<br />

– then my job is done.”<br />

Miniature marzipan tomatoes, mushrooms and<br />

carrots nestle in delicious chocolate soil made from<br />

roasted raw cocoa beans. Attention to detail is<br />

amazing: Chef Rhodes has painted the underside<br />

of the mushroom with coffee to stain it darker,<br />

and uses the stamen of a tiny edible blue flower<br />

to form the stalk of the tomato. Fresh mint leaves<br />

have a faint hint of chocolate. “It’s a specially<br />

grown chocolate mint,” explains Rhodes. “If you<br />

put a little chocolate into the plant feed, it gets<br />

absorbed by the roots and makes the leaves taste<br />

a bit chocolaty. It’s the perfect garnish for this dish.”<br />

小巧的蕃茄、蘑菇及红萝卜糕饼置身于炙烤生可<br />

可豆做成的巧克力糊中,雕琢精细、令人赞叹:<br />

蘑菇底层涂咖啡上色,让颜色稍暗,并取一小型<br />

蓝色花朵的雄蕊作为蕃茄的果柄。新鲜薄荷叶散<br />

发着一丝巧克力的气息,Arron说明:「这是特<br />

别培育的巧克力薄荷,把少许巧克力混入肥料<br />

中,渐渐可由根部吸收,薄荷叶尝起来会带点<br />

巧克力香,用来装饰这道菜再完美不过了。」<br />

美味的蟹肉开胃菜则由清爽的食材组<br />

合而成 :小巧甜蕃茄与蟹肉丸相映成趣,<br />

咸味珊瑚草叶 ( 或称海芦笋 ) 则立于酪梨<br />

果泥中, 一颗颗略酸的苹果冻及绵密、形<br />

状有如小丘的苹果慕斯则增添些许水果芳<br />

香,令人神清气爽。再往盘中一看,只见<br />

一只小型酥炸日本河蟹安坐于芝麻碎末上。<br />

Arron 解释 :「希望看起来就像螃蟹在沙中<br />

爬动一般,顺手一抓可以整只入口,如同<br />

吃香脆零食一样简单。」<br />

同一种类的鱼因为栖息地不同会出现<br />

些微差距,对厨师来说可是一大挑战。海<br />

中温度、洋流、咸度及矿物质含量不同,<br />

均会影响鱼肉的口感及味道。像是来自阿<br />

拉斯加邻海或苏格兰北部等极冷海域的鲑<br />

鱼,为了生存需要特别奋力游动,因此肉<br />

质偏瘦、较为扎实,吃起来稍微硬一些。<br />

纽西兰国王鲑鱼相对之下生活较为惬意,<br />

自然鱼肚也大多了。总厨谈到自家餐厅说 :<br />

「我们用的是塔斯马尼亚产的鲑鱼,怎样烹<br />

煮、如何上菜都要先在脑中沙盘推演。这<br />

种鱼很特别,肉汁最多、吃起来也最软嫩,<br />

摆盘特别漂亮。」Arron 钟情于海中各式食<br />

材,遇到最棒的绝不放过。他语带兴奋表<br />

示:「明虾到处都有,但我只要品质最好的。<br />

手头上现有的是马达加斯加进口的明虾,<br />

又甜又好吃,真的等不及要放到菜单上了。<br />

我总喜欢开发新的供应 商,市场竞争激烈,<br />

永远都会有新的供货来源。」<br />

选对鱼还只是做好菜的第一步而已。<br />

Arron 特别强调 :「对每道菜里面的各种食材<br />

都要了若指掌,做出风味独树一格、摆盘精<br />

美的佳肴。若有客人离开餐厅后还对我的料<br />

理念念不忘的话,就代表我成功了。」<br />

Once a landscape dOminated by cattle<br />

and sheep farms, during the past forty<br />

years the Wairau Valley in Marlborough has<br />

become known for a more luxurious agricultural<br />

product: wine grapes. Cloudy Bay, one<br />

of New Zealand’s most storied wine companies,<br />

has been growing grapes and making<br />

wine on this fertile alluvial plain since early<br />

in the region’s development. The company<br />

takes its name from a nearby beach that was<br />

christened Cloudy Bay in 1770 by British<br />

explorer Captain Cook. In a visual tribute<br />

to the dramatic glacial ranges that provide<br />

the valley with its free draining, mineral-rich<br />

soils, Cloudy Bay features Mount Riley, one<br />

of the highest peaks in the region, on its distinctive<br />

wine bottle labels.<br />

The company’s grape production is<br />

spread across four estate vineyards, including<br />

the original Cloudy Bay Estate on Jackson<br />

Road and five local vineyards. Sauvignon<br />

Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are the<br />

纽西兰马尔堡(Marlborough) 的怀劳谷<br />

(Wairau Valley) 得天独厚,大片好山好水过<br />

往曾是牧牛及绵羊的天下,最近 40 年则成<br />

为高附加价值的农产品「酿酒葡萄」的产<br />

地。 「云雾之湾 (Cloudy Bay)」作为首批踏<br />

足这片肥沃冲积土地的酿酒商,多年来栽<br />

种葡萄及酿酒,早已成为纽西兰最负盛名<br />

的酒庄之一。 1770 年英国探险家库克船长<br />

(Captain Cook) 初来此地,将邻近海滩称为<br />

「云雾之湾」,酒庄后来也以此为名。拜冰<br />

河山脊冲刷地形所赐,河谷土壤排水良好,<br />

富含矿物质,「云雾之湾」所产葡萄酒酒标<br />

上亦可见该区最高的莱利山图腾,特色鲜<br />

明。<br />

「云雾之湾」酒庄共有四座葡萄庄园,<br />

包括杰克森大道上的创始庄园,以及其他<br />

五处据点。庄园主要种植白苏维翁、夏多<br />

chief varieties grown, while lesser quantities<br />

of Gewürztraminer, Riesling and Pinot Gris<br />

are also produced. “With thirty years of grape<br />

growing and winemaking experience, Cloudy<br />

Bay has been able to focus on the vineyards<br />

and sub-regions that produce complex flavors<br />

and consistent quality,” says Cloudy Bay<br />

winemaker Nick Lane. This “blending of the<br />

highest quality” – which involves leaving out<br />

batches of wine that do not suit the company’s<br />

style – is crucial to the success of Cloudy<br />

Bay’s signature Sauvignon Blanc. “Through<br />

the art of blending, we can now make a wine<br />

with genuine complexity,” says Lane.<br />

Sauvignon Blanc is a vigorous vine that<br />

grows exceptionally well in the Marlborough<br />

region, with its crystalline combination of<br />

clear, sunny skies and cool nights. “The fruit<br />

thrives in a cool, dry climate and produces<br />

intense flavors of citrus, tropical fruit and<br />

lifted herbaceous notes,” Lane says. That climate<br />

can, however, fluctuate unpredictably,<br />

“Through the art of blending, we can now<br />

make a wine with genuine complexity.<br />

我们不断钻研混酿的学问,现在已可酿制<br />

出味道繁复、质感纯正的葡萄佳酿。”<br />

三十年栽种及酿酒经验,对于葡萄园及次<br />

级区域栽植都相当得心应手,制作的葡萄<br />

酒口味繁复,品质仍能维持不坠。」所说的<br />

「最高品质混酿法」是去芜存菁的一个方<br />

particularly during the October/November<br />

growing season and the picking time in<br />

frosty April. “Timing of harvest is crucial with<br />

Sauvignon Blanc,” says Lane. “Approaching<br />

harvest, we taste the grapes every day. We’re<br />

looking for a combination of ripe, tropical flavors<br />

with underlying citrus and a zesty acidity.”<br />

Thanks to highly favorable weather that<br />

resulted in a fruit with intense flavors, 2013<br />

was a bumper year for Cloudy Bay grape<br />

growers. “Not only will we be able to enjoy<br />

a wine with the signature aromatics,” says<br />

Lane, “but also a full-bodied wine with fantastic<br />

palate weight.”<br />

On the following pages, Cloudy Bay’s<br />

famously crisp and focused Sauvignon<br />

Blanc is served with fresh crab, lobster, oysters<br />

and abalone, classic dishes prepared by<br />

four accomplished Hong Kong chefs. The<br />

citrus focus and mineral qualities of the Sauvignon<br />

Blanc and the fresh salty sweetness<br />

of the seafood make for a classic match.<br />

When the lid of Executive Chef Wong’s<br />

crab casserole is lifted, an irresistible<br />

aroma rises from the salt-encrusted crustacean’s<br />

succulent meat. Sight and scent<br />

promise moist and intensely flavorful crab<br />

meat, and they do not deceive.<br />

“We keep the crab whole, instead of<br />

cutting it into sections which risks allowing<br />

the natural flavors to escape,” says<br />

Chef Wong, describing the method he has<br />

adapted from Japanese cuisine. “This is<br />

unusual in Chinese cooking but it is also<br />

the reason why our crab is renowned for<br />

its pureness and intensity.”<br />

As the perfect pairing for Prince’s star<br />

dish, Chef Wong selects Cloudy Bay Sauvignon<br />

he says, “The wine has freshness and a<br />

为了衬托螃蟹美味,黄健仪精选云雾之<br />

Stephen doe responded by creating a hit:<br />

lobster Basil Ravioli, Fennel Puree and<br />

Chips, with lobster Sauce. Keeping things<br />

simple to bring out the lobster’s natural<br />

the meat with olive oil and herbs before<br />

folding it into the ravioli with basil and a<br />

taste of mascarpone cheese. The bite of<br />

the pasta shell delays the peak pleasure<br />

for just a moment – then the rich lobster<br />

flavor floods wonderfully out into your<br />

mouth.<br />

“After tasting the Cloudy Bay 2013 Sauvignon<br />

a puree and chips garnish, to complement<br />

the fennel flavor within the vintage,”<br />

explains Chef doe. “I think it pairs very<br />

well because it won’t overpower or complicate<br />

the wine.”<br />

总厨周国豪<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

White wine and oysters have been a<br />

trusted duo since the dawn of food and<br />

wine pairings. But this wonderfully simple<br />

combination isn’t as simple as it seems:<br />

chefs and sommeliers enter a world of<br />

complexity as they fine tune matches<br />

between varieties of oysters and grapes.<br />

“gillardeau oysters have a salty and crispy<br />

quality with a sweet aftertaste,” says<br />

Chef oscar Chow, who serves them three<br />

ways: with cucumber and apple; with<br />

cauliflower puree and Imperial caviar; and<br />

with salmon roe and ginger salsa.<br />

“Cloudy Bay’s 2013 vintage is fresh<br />

and light and fruity, which is where some<br />

of the condiments enhance its qualities,”<br />

says Sommelier Ace lee. “And this Sauvignon<br />

Blanc also has a strong mineral taste<br />

– that is why the minerals in the oysters<br />

blend so well with this wine.”<br />

从人们开始讲究餐酒搭配起,白酒和生蚝<br />

就是最佳拍档。看似简单,里头其实是大<br />

有学问 :因应生蚝及葡萄种类的不同,搭<br />

配也需不时微调,大大考验厨师和侍酒师<br />

的功力。谈及法国 gillardeau 生蚝,总厨<br />

周国豪形容 :「口感爽脆带咸,后味则有丝<br />

鲜甜。」他以三吃展现生蚝美味 :佐小黄瓜<br />

及苹果、佐白花菜茸及 Imperial 鱼子酱,<br />

及搭配鲑鱼卵及姜味莎莎酱。<br />

蚝酒吧首席侍酒师李志伦解释 :「2013<br />

年的酒清爽、淡雅并带有果味,在部分佐<br />

料衬托下更别有一番风味。另外,白苏维<br />

Braised Abalone<br />

蚝王扣澳州三头鲜鲍<br />

IFC lei garden Restaurant 中环利苑<br />

lei garden, established four decades ago, has become synonymous with both tradition<br />

and innovation and has created over a thousand dishes that have moved in and out of<br />

its repertoire through the years. From this impressive list, the famed Braised Abalone has<br />

been a consistent favorite with the restaurant’s many guests.<br />

dish’s powerfully aromatic sauce, lei garden has broken with tradition and adapted the<br />

recipe to create a less concentrated jus for a lighter and fresher experience.<br />

and delicate pairing that marries the vintage’s citrus notes with this refreshing take on its<br />

beloved seafood classic.<br />

已有四十年历史的中环利苑向来是传统及创新融合的代名词,多年来匠心独具的创作菜色<br />

更已超过千道。不可胜数的招牌菜之中,又以蚝王扣澳州三头鲜鲍特别受到青睐,为许多<br />

忠实客户的首选。<br />

因鲍鱼搭配味道鲜明的酱汁,餐酒常选用浓郁的白酒一同上桌。但利苑不走传统老路,<br />

改良菜单烹制较为清淡的酱汁,让鲍鱼吃来更为鲜美清爽。<br />

利苑也看上「云雾之湾酒庄 2013 年白苏维翁白酒」带着柑橘香气的雅致味道,与这道<br />

清爽版的经典菜色一起享用,再适合不过。<br />

美食外交<br />

culinary diplomacy<br />

Lan Kwai Fong’s Mayta restaurant flies the flag for New Peruvian Cuisine<br />

“I see thIs restaurant as a culinary<br />

embassy,” says Executive Chef Jaime<br />

Pesaque of restaurant Mayta. “Peru is an<br />

important country with diverse ingredients<br />

and strong influences from abroad.”<br />

European, African, and Asian settlers<br />

have all influenced the Peruvian cooking<br />

style. In combination with a range of<br />

unique native ingredients, these multiple<br />

intertwined culinary traditions make for<br />

an excitingly varied and flavorful cuisine.<br />

In recent years, international foodies have<br />

discovered Peru and, as Peruvian restaurants<br />

have opened up across the globe and top<br />

chefs raid the Peruvian repertoire for new<br />

ideas, culinary influence is spreading in the<br />

other direction.<br />

Peru benefits from a long coastline,<br />

mountainous regions and deep jungle.<br />

Fertile soil and a range of microclimates<br />

yield an abundance of produce. “There<br />

are more than sixty different types of fruits<br />

in the rainforest,” says Jaime. He talks<br />

enthusiastically about the sweet flavor of<br />

the giant, fruit-eating fish that live in Peru’s<br />

jungle rivers. Peru is also home to more than<br />

3,000 varieties of potatoes, one of the world’s<br />

richest fisheries, and that nutrient-packed<br />

Andean super food, quinoa.<br />

The classic Peruvian dish, and one of<br />

the dishes that has helped Peruvian cuisine<br />

become a worldwide hit, is ceviche. Fresh<br />

raw fish is diced and steeped in a lime juice<br />

marinade, with thinly sliced onions, salt,<br />

pepper and spicy ají. Marinating produces<br />

a refreshing, spicy, and addictively delicious<br />

「Mayta」行政总厨 Jaime Pesaque 自<br />

信满满表示 :「这间餐厅就像秘鲁的<br />

美食大使馆,宣扬我们丰富多元的<br />

食材及综合异国文化而成的饮食风<br />

格 。」<br />

秘鲁当地饮食曾受欧洲、非洲<br />

及亚洲殖民者影响,加上国内多种<br />

独特食材,交织而成多元的餐饮传<br />

统,呈现的料理种类多变、口味非<br />

常丰富。秘鲁料理近年在国际食坛<br />

声名鹊起,成为不少老饕的新宠,<br />

秘鲁餐厅版图也随之拓展到世界各<br />

国。同时也有许多顶尖大厨发挥创<br />

意,改良传统秘鲁料理,影响力也<br />

在各地逐渐发酵。<br />

秘鲁海岸线极长,加上大片的山<br />

区及茂密丛林,天然资源得天独厚。<br />

农产也拜肥沃的土壤及不同地形的微气<br />

候所赐,非常丰富。 Jamie 就说 :「光在雨<br />

林就有超过 60 种以上的水果。」总厨特别<br />

提到栖息在丛林水域、以水果为主食的巨<br />

型鱼类,对其鲜甜的肉质赞不绝口。秘鲁<br />

国内孕育超过 3,000 多种马铃薯、鱼获量<br />

全球数一数二,更有来自安地斯山脉、营<br />

养满点的超级谷物「藜麦」。<br />

帮秘鲁菜在全球打响名号的经典料理<br />

非「ceviche( 虎之奶腌鲈鱼 )」莫属。作法<br />

简单,将生鱼切块、浸入莱姆汁为底的卤<br />

汁调味,再加上洋葱细片、盐、胡椒及「ají」<br />

辣酱即可。腌酱呈白色,当地称为「leche<br />

de tigre」,即「虎之奶」的意思,味道清新、<br />

呛辣,好滋味让人一口接一口。 「ceviche」<br />

为美洲沿岸各国常见的料理,但美味程度<br />

却无人出秘鲁人之其右。<br />

Jamie 强调 :「这么多年来,ceviche 一<br />

直都是代表秘鲁的国民料理,不过日本人<br />

让我们学会把鱼肉切的更像日式生鱼片,<br />

入口方便吃得更快。Ceviche 就是要够沁凉、<br />

清爽才好吃。」<br />

在「Mayta」也吃得到总厨对这道菜的<br />

特殊诠释-扇贝「ceviche」搭配灯笼果。<br />

Jamie 亲自介绍 :「我用的黑藜麦生长在安<br />

地斯山脉高海拔区,也曾是印加帝国人民<br />

的主食,放到 ceviche 上层,可以增添酥脆<br />

口感。」<br />

总厨另一道招牌菜「causa( 三色薯蓉 )」<br />

用的是秘鲁种类多如繁星的马铃薯。 Jamie<br />

进一步说明 :「causa 是我们当地对朋友的<br />

俗称。」用在这道大家可以一起分享的料理<br />

上,再适合不过。 「为了增添令人玩味的<br />

口感、吃起来更有趣,我们总共用了三种<br />

不同的马铃薯。」马铃薯泥三重奏依序有紫<br />

色、黄色及落日的橘红色,上方个别搭配<br />

了不同食材 :香甜的深橘马铃薯球上环绕<br />

着章鱼脚、黄色薯泥上有多汁的明虾以及<br />

来自鲑鱼「ceviche」、鲜明呛辣的虎之奶用<br />

在深紫薯泥上。总厨表示 :「这道菜里面有<br />

我最爱的食材- aji amarillo 金黄辣椒」,所<br />

含的特殊熏呛辣味让他爱不释手,「真无法<br />

想像没有 aji amarillo 要怎么煮菜。」<br />

Jamie 热爱秘鲁的道地食材及料理,<br />

但也不忘发挥创意、端出改良版的新菜。<br />

「我做的是新式秘鲁菜,经典又带点创新。<br />

就拿Suspiro de Limeña 这道甜点来说,<br />

我加了小片的烤凤梨,增添些许酸度及口<br />

感,才不会太甜。」Suspiro 指的就是『dulce<br />

de leche 焦糖酱』,通常会放进苏打瓶中通<br />

气,增加膨松度。焦糖上有奶香绵密的藜<br />

麦饼,酥脆口感让人吃起来很开心,最上<br />

层则放上一球冰淇淋。不过可不是全拿香<br />

草来充数,总厨强调 :「冰淇淋是用橄榄<br />

油做的,多次尝试就是希望做出恰到好处<br />

的咸香口味。冰淇淋里面我也加了些烤藜<br />

麦,让人一吃就知道是 Suspiro,但层次<br />

更为丰富。」<br />

另一道料理「Arroz con Pato( 秘鲁黄<br />

椒烩鸭饭 )」也可以看得到总厨的巧思。<br />

Jamie 说 :「这是秘鲁北部的家常料理,我<br />

稍微做了点变化,米饭质感偏向西班牙炖<br />

饭,用啤酒腌渍的鸭腿和胸肉肉质更为软<br />

嫩。」米饭加入香气浓郁的胡荽叶及印加<br />

文化另一主要谷类-大型的粒状玉米「choclo」一起煮<br />

;另外以橄榄油、红葱、盐、<br />

莱姆及辣椒段熬制的佐料口感清爽,让味<br />

道浓郁的鸭肉及绵密的米饭吃来不油不腻,<br />

更加美味。蜜汁小萝卜增添甘甜,使这道<br />

菜色泽更为鲜艳。<br />

讲到「Mayta」美食外交的魅力,Jamie<br />

表示 :「我们想在餐厅呈现不一样的东西给<br />

客人,让他们品尝到全方位的秘鲁美食。<br />

能尝试不同的美食料理真的很棒,从中获<br />

得乐趣,体验更多、更丰富。」总厨说着说着,<br />

整个人俨如真正的外交官一样。<br />

Guincho a Galera Head Chef<br />

Martinho Moniz<br />

葡国餐厅总厨<br />

葡式烩海鲜锅 各式美味精华一次品尝<br />

cataplana de marisco<br />

Martinho Moniz, head chef at Guincho a Galera at the<br />

Hotel Lisboa Macau, shares his approach to this Portuguese classic.<br />

Bacalhau and Black pork are icons of<br />

Portuguese cooking. Cataplana is one, too.<br />

It is a rich part of our culture. Cataplana is<br />

the name of the copper pot, and every family<br />

in Portugal has one. When closed, the pot is<br />

completely air-tight which allows all the flavors<br />

to be completely absorbed by the fish.<br />

The dish is originally from North Africa,<br />

which shows the influence of Arab culture.<br />

When the pot is placed on the table, it is a<br />

very precious moment.<br />

I’m a farm boy from near the sea. From<br />

the hospital where I was born, you can see<br />

the beach. I grew up in Nazaré, which is<br />

very famous for its big surfing waves. I love<br />

cooking fish and seafood. For me, cataplana<br />

is a symbol of home. I can remember going to<br />

the market with my mother to buy the fish to<br />

make it. It was my mother who encouraged<br />

me to be a chef. Whenever I cook cataplana,<br />

I can feel my mother with me.<br />

The big challenge when cooking<br />

cataplana in Macau is that my guests are<br />

passionate about how their fish is cooked.<br />

At home in Portugal, everything goes into<br />

说到葡萄牙菜,像是马介休 (bacalhau) 或黑<br />

猪都是极具代表性的料理,而「葡式烩海<br />

鲜锅 (cataplana)」也是其中不容错过的佳肴<br />

之一,它充分展现出我们文化丰富的一面。<br />

Cataplana 其实是铜锅的名称,在葡萄牙几<br />

乎是家家户户必备的厨具。闭阖时,利用锅<br />

盖与锅身的密合进行闷煮,有助鲜鱼吸收各<br />

式味道交融的精华。这道菜最早源自于北非,<br />

带有阿拉伯文化的色彩。大锅上桌时,总让<br />

人兴奋不已,是值得纪念的重要时刻。<br />

我是个农村小孩,家里靠海。我成长<br />

的海岸城市拿撒勒(Nazaré)是冲浪迷的<br />

朝圣所在。料理鱼类及海鲜都是我的最爱。<br />

「葡式烩海鲜锅」代表的就是我的家乡。以<br />

前和妈妈一同上市场买鱼、下厨的画面到<br />

现在都还历历在目。每次做这道菜,都感<br />

觉妈妈就在我身旁。<br />

在葡萄牙,习惯一次把所有食材通通<br />

放进锅里煮,有时鱼肉会有点过老,但我<br />

个人不太在意,倒还蛮喜欢的。但在澳门<br />

可就不是这么一回事,当地饕客对于鱼肉<br />

的处理非常敏锐,所以不管是龙虾、蛤蛎<br />

或鱼类等任何新鲜食材,我都会抓好准确<br />

的烹煮时间。这与传统作法没有两样,只<br />

是时间点要抓的恰到好处,才能迎合当地<br />

ecipe<br />

the pot all at once, with the result that<br />

some fish is overcooked. Actually I like<br />

it like that! But here, I cook everything,<br />

whether it be the lobster, clams or fish,<br />

only just as long as it needs to be cooked. I<br />

don’t change the recipe – I just use precise<br />

timing to make sure everything is perfect<br />

and the guests are more than happy. My<br />

cooking style is just a little bit modern. I<br />

cook traditional Portuguese food, but with<br />

the elegance of French cuisine. I work<br />

with traditional recipes, but use cuttingedge<br />

technology.<br />

The secret of a good cataplana is the<br />

quality of the produce. You have to work<br />

with the best ingredients for the best taste.<br />

The lobster and the clams come from the<br />

United States while the garoupa is local. The<br />

potatoes are from France – they’re called<br />

ratte and have a wonderful flavor. You can<br />

taste the farm where they were grown.<br />

After that, it’s the quality of the stock.<br />

I use a new set of the same ingredients in<br />

the stock as in the casserole: prawn heads,<br />

lobster tail and so on. The secret for a<br />

good stock is using aromatic water. Not<br />

just normal water, but water infused with<br />

coriander, ginger, pepper corns and celery.<br />

The last secret is lemon. Just a couple of<br />

drops draws out all the other flavors.<br />

顾客的口味。我烹调道地的葡国料理会加<br />

入法式料理的优雅元素,并且运用崭新技<br />

术来呈现传统食谱的精华所在。<br />

「葡式烩海鲜锅」要做得好,食材的<br />

品质是关键。要运用最佳食材,创造出无<br />

懈可击的滋味。我们用美国进口的龙虾及<br />

蛤蛎、澳门当地的石斑,以及名为「ratte」<br />

的法国种马铃薯,味道特别棒。一口入肚,<br />

可以吃得到各地食材的道地风味。<br />

讲完食材,接下来的重点就是高汤了。<br />

使用汤料与制作砂锅菜一样,有虾头、龙<br />

虾尾等等。汤头要好,秘诀就在加入胡荽、<br />

姜、干胡椒及芹菜的调味汁。最后别忘了<br />

加上柠檬,一两滴便有画龙点睛之效,让<br />

整体风味更上一层楼。<br />

In an effort to ensure quality Hong Kong<br />

requires that all fresh marine fish be<br />

sold via one of the seven wholesale fish<br />

markets operated by the Fish Marketing<br />

Organization (FMO). No longer sold by the<br />

fishermen directly, the fish pass through<br />

numerous middlemen before reaching<br />

consumers. While still out on the South<br />

China Sea, fishermen transfer their daily<br />

catch to connecting agents, who transport<br />

the fish to Hong Kong wholesalers, who<br />

sell in bulk to buyers, who fill and deliver<br />

orders to restaurants, grocers and wet<br />

markets, who finally sell the fish to<br />

individual customers.<br />

Wholesalers may look back with<br />

some nostalgia on the old days, when<br />

the market was less regulated and they<br />

could select what they wanted as the<br />

boats came in. But they appreciate the<br />

infrastructure provided by the FMO. The<br />

live seafood facilities are equipped with<br />

generators and water pumps and provide<br />

a supply of clean seawater, all of which<br />

reduce stress on the fish. During lowyield<br />

seasons the FMO imports seafood to<br />

maintain inventory.<br />

香港仔鱼类批发市场是香港鱼类统营处<br />

(FMO) 经营的七大鱼市之一,为严格控管<br />

品质,新鲜鱼货不由渔家贩售,而是经过<br />

markets<br />

Each year, the FMO moves around 8,000<br />

tons of live marine fish and 35,000 tons<br />

of fresh marine fish through its wholesale<br />

fish markets. The largest market is<br />

Aberdeen, which, according to Marketing<br />

Manager Boris Wong, accounts for roughly<br />

one-third of the fresh fish and threequarters<br />

of the live seafood sold in Hong<br />

Kong. Business is brisk, and though the<br />

market may look chaotic to the untrained<br />

eye, the operation is as well-coordinated<br />

as a beehive.<br />

统营处旗下的鱼类批发市场每年经手活鱼<br />

达 8,000 吨,生鲜则有 35,000 吨之多。行<br />

销经理 Boris Wong 表示,其中以香港仔市<br />

场规模最大,生鲜及活海鲜经销就各占了<br />

全港约三分之一及四分之三。鱼市交易相<br />

当蓬勃,外行人眼中看来稍嫌有点杂乱无<br />

章,但整体运作其实如同蜂巢一般,分工<br />

合作、井井有条。<br />

september 2013 | TASTING KITCHEN | 111


Visitors are advised to stay on their toes. A lapse in attention is apt to result in a painful encounter with cartload of fish or an unexpected<br />

dousing of seawater. After one gets the hang of dodging the live fish being tossed around and wading through the streams of ankledeep<br />

water sluicing from fish tanks, it’s possible to enjoy the visual feast: glistening mackerel packed in boxes of ice, tanks of brilliantly<br />

colored yellow wrasse, buckets of coiled pike conger, bins of exotically striped areolate babylon, and piles and piles of decapitated fish<br />

heads whose bodies will soon be made into fish balls.<br />

鱼市的访客需时时提高警觉,否则一恍神撞到满满一车的鱼或泼了满身海水,都是常见的意外。反应够快、懂得躲开抛来丢去的活鱼,或<br />

面临膝盖高度、鱼池排出的强力水流也能安然跋涉的人就可好好欣赏一下鱼市的美丽风景 :冰块箱里闪闪发亮的青花鱼、水池中鲜艳动人<br />

的黄衣锦鱼、一桶桶蜷曲的海鳗、一柜柜充满各式异国条纹色调的象牙凤螺,以及堆叠成堆的鱼头,其鱼身准备制成鱼丸。<br />

奥地利酿酒 新秀登场<br />

austria’s<br />

new generation<br />

of winemakers<br />

AustriA boAsts nearly three millennia of winemaking history, twenty<br />

thousand wine growers and six thousand producers. Indigenous varietals<br />

such as Grüner Veltliner have won international acclaim. The domestic<br />

wine culture is rich and appreciative – Austrian demand for their local<br />

wines outstrips supply. It’s one of the world’s great wine regions and it is<br />

thriving.<br />

Not so long ago though, in the mid 1980s, the reputation of Austrian<br />

wine lay in shatters following a scandal involving some producers who<br />

had adulterated their wine with a banned substance found in antifreeze.<br />

Today, many will agree that it was the best thing that ever happened to<br />

Austrian wine. In the aftermath of the scandal, ambitious winemakers<br />

emerged who were willing to fight an uphill battle to bring their wines<br />

back on to the international stage. Modern techniques and steady focus<br />

on quality turned the tide, and by the late 1990s Austrian wine was back<br />

in the finest restaurants, bars and boutiques in New York, London, Hong<br />

Kong and Tokyo.<br />

Now nearly thirty years on, we see these accomplished pioneers<br />

passing on their heritage to a new generation of knowledgeable and<br />

equally ambitious winemakers, who aim to surpass the achievements of<br />

their accomplished fathers. Here are three examples of those who have<br />

already made their mark.<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

奥地利酿酒历史将近三千年,相当悠久,全<br />

国共有近两万户酿酒坊及六千家制造商。当<br />

地培育的 Grüner Veltliner 等葡萄变种品质优<br />

异,也备受国际好评。奥国酿酒文化丰富,<br />

品质极受肯定,从当地酿酒产业生产量尚不<br />

及国内需求即可见一斑。奥地利产业蓬勃发<br />

展,为全球数一数二的酿酒区域。<br />

但 1980 年代中期爆发的不肖酿酒业者于<br />

酒中掺入违法物质丑闻,重创奥地利酿酒王<br />

国形象。不过现在很多人却认为这是因祸得<br />

福。丑闻爆发后,不少有志酿酒业者仍义无<br />

反顾、投身这场硬仗,希望扭转劣势,让奥<br />

地利美酒重回国际市场怀抱。拜现代技术及<br />

稳定品质所赐,奥地利酒商终于东山再起。<br />

90 年代末期奥国佳酿又于纽约、伦敦、香港<br />

及东京等各地顶级餐厅、酒吧再现踪迹。<br />

至今将近三十年的时间,当初披荆斩棘<br />

的前辈将宝贵经验传承给同样知识丰富、充<br />

满雄心壮志的新一代酿酒商,希望能青出于<br />

蓝胜于蓝。以下为三家已崭露头角的酿酒新<br />

秀介绍。<br />

Gerhard Kracher<br />

Gerhard Kracher took over the family vineyards<br />

after the death of his father Alois in 2007.<br />

Considered by many to be the best winemaker in<br />

Austria, Alois Kracher was six times recognized as<br />

Sweet Wine Maker of the Year. It was a hard act to<br />

follow, but already in 2009, twenty-eight year-old<br />

Gerhard himself won the Sweet Wine Maker of the<br />

Year Award at the International Wine Challenge in<br />

London.<br />

The Kracher vineyards are located along the<br />

shore of Lake Neusiedlersee. The shallow depth<br />

of the water and the warm climate of Austria’s<br />

Pannonin Plain produce autumn mists and a long<br />

ripening season, and this is one of the rare areas<br />

in the world where noble rot is almost guaranteed.<br />

Infected by the magic-making Botrytis fungus in<br />

the moist air, the grapes later dry out and become<br />

raisined, with intensely concentrated sugar and<br />

flavor.<br />

Gerhard produces a range of Trockenbeerenauslesen<br />

(German for “dried berries selection,”<br />

the term refers to sweet wines made from the<br />

botrytized grapes) every year from different varietals<br />

and blends and labels them in order of residual<br />

sugar levels which can range from 160 g/l to<br />

over 450 g/l. Some are aged in barriques (labeled<br />

Nouvelle Vague) and some in stainless steel<br />

(labeled Zwischen den Seen) and despite the high<br />

sugar levels are perfectly balanced with crisp acidity<br />

and intense fruit.<br />

Gerhard Kracher 于父亲 Alois<br />

2007 年过世后正式接下家族<br />

的酿酒事业。 Alois Kracher<br />

曾六度荣膺年度最佳甜酒酿<br />

酒商,说是奥地利第一酿酒<br />

品牌并不为过。对后继者而<br />

言,虽是不小的压力,但 28<br />

岁的 Gerhard 却以实力证明<br />

一切,不到两年时间,便在<br />

伦敦举行的 2009 年国际葡<br />

萄酒竞赛中摘下年度甜酒酿<br />

酒商的殊荣。<br />

Kracher 家族葡萄园座<br />

落 于 Neusiedlersee 湖 岸<br />

边,浅水、奥地利 Pannonin<br />

Plain 地区秋季浓雾造成的温<br />

暖气候,再加上长时间的熟<br />

成期,得天独厚的条件举世<br />

少有,出产的贵腐酒几乎瓶<br />

瓶都是品质保证。潮湿天候<br />

孕育的贵腐菌(Botrytis) 使<br />

葡萄水分挥发,脱水成葡萄<br />

干后却有神奇效果,让糖份<br />

及风味都升级。<br />

Gerhard 每年都会挑选<br />

多个葡萄变种,混酿一系<br />

列 的「Trockenbeerenauslesen(<br />

德文为特选干葡萄之<br />

意,引伸为贵腐菌葡萄所酿<br />

之甜酒 )」特极葡萄酒,酒<br />

标中的留存糖份从 160 g/l<br />

到 450 g/l 以上不等。另外,<br />

还有酒柜中熟成的「Nouvelle<br />

Vague」、不锈钢桶熟成的<br />

「Zwischen den Seen」葡萄<br />

酒等,虽然含糖量高,鲜呛<br />

的酸度及浓郁的果味却搭配<br />

的恰到好处,让人忍不住再<br />

三品尝。<br />

co-owner and CEO of the Schloss Halbturn<br />

estate with a mission to produce the best<br />

Austrian red wine. His motto: “Quality knows no<br />

compromise.” Investing in the modernization of<br />

the equipment, he spared no expense to ensure<br />

highest quality. He set up meticulous production<br />

standards from harvest to bottling, including<br />

healthy vineyard management, berry selection,<br />

double sorting, and use of barriques.<br />

The winery is located east of Vienna near<br />

the Hungarian border in the Baroque Palace<br />

Halbturn, which used to be the hunting and<br />

summer residence of the Austrian Imperial<br />

family. The former vaulted stables are now an<br />

exquisite cellar housing rows of French oak barrels.<br />

The estate maintains an extensive wine<br />

library and larger formats for all the wines<br />

which have been produced since 2002.<br />

Dieter’s ambitions bore fruit in 2012, when<br />

the estate’s 2008 Pinot Noir won Decanter<br />

magazine’s trophy for Austria’s best red wine.<br />

The label’s top red wine range also comprises<br />

single varietal wines made from St. Laurent and<br />

Blaufränkisch grapes native to Austria, and the<br />

Imperial blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Blaufränkisch,<br />

Merlot and Cabernet Franc.<br />

Lucas Pichler<br />

Weingut F.X. Pichler, Wachau<br />

Lucas is the son of the famous Franz Xaver (F.X.)<br />

Pichler, whose estate wine critic Robert Parker<br />

has called the Chateau Latour and Domaine de<br />

la Romanee-Conti of the Wachau. Now in his<br />

seventies, the elder Pilcher still spends every day<br />

in the vineyards tending and caring for his beloved<br />

vines, but in 1999, he passed the winemaking<br />

duties on to his son.<br />

The Pilcher estate is located in the beautiful<br />

Danube River valley called the Wachau. In 2009,<br />

a new state-of-the-art winery was inaugurated,<br />

breaking tradition with ultra modern architecture.<br />

From the pristine white tasting room visitors<br />

enjoy expansive views over the vineyard terraces,<br />

which the Pilchers have been cultivating for five<br />

generations. Below, in the cellars, the simplicity<br />

and almost laboratory-like atmosphere continues.<br />

Lucas uses only stainless steel. Unaltered by<br />

oak, the character of the resulting wines shines<br />

through. They are clean and pure and immensely<br />

concentrated, giving a true expression of their<br />

terroir.<br />

The plots of Kellerberg and Loibenberg, steep<br />

mountain terraces dating back to the 12th century,<br />

produce some of Pilcher’s most impressive and<br />

expressive Grüner Veltliners and Rieslings. In<br />

selected years, he also produces wines labeled<br />

M (for Monumental) and Unendlich (Infinite) –<br />

confident wines that both fulfill the promise of<br />

their labels.<br />

champagne savoir-faire<br />

When it comes to the rules of fine wines and Champagnes, some are simple. Red meat pairs with red wine, seafood with white and<br />

Champagne with fabulous celebrations. But what happens once you venture off the beaten track? Can Champagne go with a multicourse<br />

meal? Which aperitif will enhance a glass of even the best bubbly? And what should a gracious host do if a guest requests a full<br />

flute to accompany a nibble of chocolate?<br />

G.H. Mumm is teaming up with L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon and Tasting Kitchen this October to host G.H. Mumm Chef de Cave Didier<br />

Mariotti and world-renowned Champagne expert Richard Juhlin for an exclusive Chef’s Table dinner demonstrating how thoughtfully<br />

selected Champagnes can further elevate the flavors of fine French cuisine.<br />

Tasting Kitchen spoke with the chef and sommeliers at Robuchon responsible for the exquisite pairings about their Champagne<br />

philosophies. Combined with advice from the celebrated iPhone app Champagne Protocoles de G.H. Mumm there’s enough expert<br />

guidance to elevate a novice to a champ of the Champs.<br />

Champagne is the only wine meant to be enjoyed<br />

quite well to hors d’oeuvres.<br />

可以站着享用的酒,非香槟莫属。香槟搭配性极强,为<br />

各式开胃菜的好搭档。<br />

Champagne protoColes de g.h. mumm<br />

“i would choose caviar. it’s much fresher especially<br />

when you’re pairing it with some refreshing Champagne.<br />

it’s going to bring out the matching flavor – really it’s just<br />

a perfect match. For the Champagne, i think something<br />

very refreshing like Blanc de Blancs. Sometimes an aged<br />

Champagne is great.”<br />

「我推荐鱼子酱,搭配爽口的香槟,味道会更加新鲜。香<br />

槟可引发餐酒搭配的美味,真的无懈可击。讲到香槟我<br />

总会想到气味清新的『Blanc de Blancs』,或者陈年香槟<br />

有时候滋味也很棒。」<br />

主菜能否搭配香槟享用?<br />

有些人会说「不行」, 这时请婉转的纠正他们,<br />

其实是「可以的」。<br />

Champagne protoColes de g.h. mumm<br />

ReD DOG STuDiO<br />

“What is nice about Mumm is that they have a very different type of Champagne. With Mumm<br />

you have many years, you have different types of grapes. in French cuisine we have dishes<br />

that are sometimes a bit rich with butter, with cream. The champagne helps us balance the<br />

dish. When you try the food with the Champagne, it’s amazing how well they match together.”<br />

「Mumm 厉害之处,是它们的酒与众不同。不同年份,葡萄种类也不一样。法式料理常加入奶<br />

油调味,香槟正好可以中和丰厚的味道。美食搭配香槟一起享用相得益彰,常让人惊艳不已。」<br />

what Champagne should<br />

be served with dessert?<br />

搭配甜点该选择何种香槟?<br />

When serving sweet delights, the only possible choice<br />

is a demi-sec, or extra-dry Champagne as it contains<br />

an adequate dose of sugar and is otherwise full and<br />

generous.<br />

搭配甜点,半干或略干香槟为不二选择,含一定甜度,<br />

酒体也丰满宽厚。<br />

Champagne protoColes de g.h. mumm<br />

“There are two kinds of Champagne that are very<br />

good. One is the Le Rosé Champagne because it’s much<br />

fruitier. i recommend pairing it with fruity dishes like a<br />

raspberry tart, simple berries, or blueberry cheesecake.<br />

it will be very fine with those because it will enhance<br />

the fruitiness. The demi-sec Champagne is very<br />

good because you have over fifteen grams of sugar,<br />

sometimes over thirty.”<br />

「有两款值得推荐,一是 Le Rosé Champagne 粉红香槟,<br />

果味浓郁,适合和覆盆子塔、综合莓果或蓝莓起司蛋糕<br />

等水果甜点一起享用,提升果香的迷人程度。半干香槟<br />

含超过 15 克糖残量、有时甚至超过 30 克,也是搭配甜<br />

点的绝佳选择。<br />

what should You do if a guest insists<br />

on drinKing Champagne with ChoColate?<br />

客人吃巧克力非要搭配香槟怎么办?<br />

On one hand: the most exquisite of all wines. On the<br />

other: the most divine of desserts. The temptation to<br />

pair them together is irresistible. But you just can’t win:<br />

Champagne and chocolate, like the best of enemies,<br />

cannot be served together.<br />

一边是口味最细致的酒款 ;一边是最令人钟爱的甜点。<br />

想一并享用也算人之常情,但只怕两边不讨好 :香槟和<br />

巧克力如同天敌,不可同时上桌。<br />

Champagne protoColes de g.h. mumm<br />

“Some people say Champagne and chocolate cannot mesh<br />

together because of chocolate’s dryness and bitterness,<br />

but i often suggest a milk chocolate. Milk chocolate can<br />

go with rosé Champagne because the rosé has good<br />

fruitiness. i focus on fruitiness to go with bubbles. Mumm<br />

Champagne has a fine bubble and is very smooth.”<br />

「有人说巧克力味道干苦,不能和香槟一起享用。不过,<br />

换成是牛奶巧克力就没问题了。玫瑰香槟富含果味,与牛<br />

奶巧克力很搭。我更注重果味与香槟泡沫的融合程度,像<br />

Mumm 泡沫就很漂亮,也非常顺口。」<br />

paradise found<br />

An escape to the tropical island pleasures of<br />

Honi Honi is only as far away as Wellington Street.<br />

“I wanted to create a little paradise – a<br />

way out of the concrete,” says Honi Honi<br />

founder Max Traverse. The space he found<br />

is on the third floor of a building on busy Wellington<br />

Street. When the elevator doors open,<br />

guests are transported to a piece of Polynesia.<br />

Stools hewn from the trunks of mango<br />

trees, hanging lamps fashioned from glass<br />

fishermen’s floats, carved Hawaiian art, and<br />

a muslin curtain like a rucked sail all make<br />

the bar feel perfectly heavenly.<br />

Honi Honi smells of fresh tropical fruit.<br />

The team behind the bar work hard, peeling<br />

fragrant mangoes, scalping watermelons<br />

and blitzing the juicy flesh to pulp in blenders.<br />

“This is a Tiki bar,” says Max. “Tiki is a<br />

concept invented by Trader Vic, who fell in<br />

love with Polynesian culture, then brought<br />

it to America and Europe. It’s about freshness,<br />

relaxing and the outdoors. We like to<br />

make our drinks with fresh fruit every day<br />

and we use the best alcohol we can get our<br />

hands on.”<br />

The bar opens out on to a tropical garden<br />

enclosed by a bamboo fence. Deep green<br />

foliage and exotic plants create a jungle feel<br />

– far removed from the bustling streets and<br />

shops below. A special rain shower, available<br />

for guests who want to get wet, adds to<br />

the sense of escape. “We have beach parties<br />

here on alternate Sundays,” says bar manager<br />

Fabien Marcault. “People come in their<br />

beachwear. And yes – they do use the shower!<br />

It’s a great way to spend a sunny afternoon.”<br />

The refreshingly fruity and iced cocktails<br />

arrive in fantastic receptacles. Some<br />

are carved from wood. Others are ceramic,<br />

then taste each other’s. So I thought, let’s try<br />

this – let’s make large cocktails for groups of<br />

people to drink together. It’s natural and fun.”<br />

Fabien is making a cocktail from Zacapa<br />

rum, a fine Guatemalan liquor the color of<br />

burnt amber. This rum comes in a bottle<br />

wearing a slender belt of woven grass.<br />

“Zacapa rum is at the top of its game,” says<br />

Max. “It has sweet honey and vanilla notes<br />

that come through – spice too. It’s great on<br />

the rocks or in a simple mixed drink so its flavour<br />

can shine.”<br />

Today Fabien is making a more complex<br />

drink using Zacapa. “We use a lot of ice in tiki<br />

cocktails to make the drinks long and refreshing.<br />

You want a really good alcohol with classy<br />

flavor to make a great drink.”<br />

Fabien carefully rotates the rim of a faceshaped<br />

brown tiki glass in a heap of shredded<br />

coconut. He mixes rum, pineapple juice and<br />

coconut water, adds a dash of coconut and<br />

orgeat syrup and pours the drink over plenty<br />

of ice. “Coconut water goes incredibly well<br />

with rum, and is naturally hydrating, so this<br />

is perfect for hot weather.” The coconut looks<br />

like a halo around the top of the carved face<br />

on the front of the glass. Fabien calls the<br />

drink Tiki Angel.<br />

Despite the fruit juice and syrup, Tiki<br />

Angel is not that sweet, rather clean-tasting<br />

and light. The coconut water is pure and<br />

refreshing and the vanilla notes of the rum<br />

come through clearly. “It’s a cooling drink –<br />

very tiki!” says Fabien. “Good name too.”<br />

“I love to name cocktails,” interjects Max.<br />

Zacapa is the rum of World Class,<br />

the global competition which celebrates<br />

the skill and style of the world’s best<br />

bartenders. Follow all the action<br />

“But finding a name for the bar was hard. You<br />

want to find something memorable. I stumbled<br />

across Honi Honi as it is the name of<br />

a rum cocktail. And I thought: girls here in<br />

Hong Kong call their boyfriends Honey, and<br />

honey is a sweet foodstuff. It all seemed to<br />

fit. Then someone told me that Honi Honi<br />

is actually the name for a traditional Polynesian<br />

greeting, where two people press their<br />

noses together whilst simultaneously inhaling.<br />

A bit like a kiss in France. And then I<br />

knew – a Polynesian kiss! – what name could<br />

be better than that!”<br />

酒吧创辨人 Max Traverse 在谈到创办风尚<br />

酒吧 Honi Honi 的理念时表示 :「我想在水<br />

泥丛林中让人有个偷闲的天堂。」酒吧就隐<br />

匿在车水马龙的威灵顿街中,走进所在建<br />

筑物三楼,电梯一开,映入眼帘的景象无<br />

不让人仿佛置身南太平洋玻里尼西亚群岛,<br />

有取自芒果树干凿成的座椅、仿玻璃浮标<br />

的垂挂灯饰、夏威夷雕刻艺术,及横挂的<br />

细布帘子,乍看仿如吹皱的风帆,无处不<br />

是南洋风情,像在天堂一般。<br />

Honi Honi 主打新鲜热带水果酒饮,吧<br />

台后方的调酒师们一刻不得闲,忙着将香<br />

味四溢的芒果削皮、西瓜囊肉取出,把新<br />

鲜多汁的果肉倒进果汁机处理。 Max 自豪<br />

表示 :「我们是货真价实的 Tiki 主题酒吧,<br />

这词最早由贸易商 Vic 所提出,把钟情的<br />

玻里尼西亚文化介绍到欧美等国,新鲜、<br />

放松及户外是其三大重点所在。我们每天<br />

用新鲜水果以及手边最棒的酒类制作风格<br />

独具的酒饮。」<br />

酒吧往外,是一片竹篱笆围着的热带<br />

花园。深绿色的树叶及异国植物让人暂时<br />

远离熙攘的街景及商店,安然置身于此遗<br />

世丛林中。想淋个雨的客人,也可利用雨<br />

林装置痛快一番,尽享度假氛围。酒吧经<br />

理 Fabien Marcault 就说 :「海滩派对每隔<br />

一个礼拜天举行,客人穿着海滩装出席,<br />

到热带雨林大玩特玩,阳光普照的午后,<br />

到这准没错。」<br />

各式水果鸡尾酒不仅沁凉爽口,更以<br />

多种别出心裁的特殊容器装盛,令人惊喜。<br />

有木刻杯、传统 tiki 南洋面具图腾的陶杯,<br />

甚或是挖空的西瓜等鲜果也能满注酒饮,<br />

新鲜上桌。 Max 还提出店里的另一大特色:<br />

「我们提供 Sharing Cocktail。香港人喜欢吃<br />

桌菜,点了满桌料理一起分享,我留意到<br />

客人来酒吧也会点自己喝的,再交换品尝。<br />

所以我就想,何不为客人特制大型份量的<br />

酒饮,供大家一起共享,好玩又过瘾。」<br />

Fabien 现场用带有焦黄琥珀色泽、瓜<br />

50 ml Zacapa 23 Year Old Rum<br />

70 ml coconut water<br />

20 ml pineapple juice<br />

5 ml orgeat syrup<br />

5 ml coconut syrup<br />

Serve in a round tiki mug filled<br />

to overflowing with ice and<br />

with a coconut-encrusted rim.<br />

50 毫升 23年陈年Zacapa兰姆酒<br />

70 毫升 椰子水<br />

20 毫升 凤梨汁<br />

5 毫升 杏仁糖浆<br />

5 毫升 椰子糖浆<br />

以Tiki圆杯装盛,放入<br />

冰块,再取椰壳置杯缘<br />

点缀即可。<br />

地马拉的「Zacapa」兰姆酒调酒,搭配细<br />

长草绳编织腰封的酒杯上桌。 Max 为我们<br />

介 绍 :「 Zacapa 兰姆酒效果无懈可击,入口<br />

带有蜂蜜及香草的甜味,还有些微呛辣感,<br />

直接加冰块喝,或简单加几种酒类去调都<br />

能尝得到 Zacapa 独特的滋味。」<br />

不过 Fabien 今天调的稍微复杂一些,<br />

他 说 :「 tiki 系列鸡尾酒通常会用大量冰块,<br />

让鸡尾酒持久清爽冰凉。真正好的酒才能<br />

做出好的饮品,发挥经典味道的独到风格。」<br />

Fabien 小心翼翼、顺着人脸图腾的咖<br />

啡色 tiki 酒杯杯缘旋转,旁边还散落许多<br />

椰子碎末。 Fabien 混和兰姆酒、凤梨汁及<br />

椰子水后,加上少许椰肉及杏仁糖浆,最<br />

后再放入大量冰块。 「椰子水与兰姆酒简<br />

直是天作之合,加上水分丰沛,炎炎夏日<br />

享用真是锦上添花。」从酒杯正面看,椰<br />

肉正好就在人脸上方,有如光圈一般,Fabien<br />

也才将调酒取名为「Tiki Angel」。<br />

虽然加了果汁及糖浆,「Tiki Angel」并<br />

不会过甜,喝起来反而相当爽口清凉,尝<br />

得到椰子水的纯味、令人神清气爽,兰姆<br />

酒的香草气息也会在口中散开,就像 Fabien<br />

说的 :「这款调酒沁凉十足,百分之百<br />

tiki,名字也取得恰到好处。」<br />

说到这 Max 也忍不住插嘴 :「我超爱<br />

取名字的。不过当时为了给酒吧 取一个让<br />

人印象深刻的名字,真的快想破头了。我<br />

碰巧注意到一款兰姆调酒叫『Honi Honi』,<br />

谐音就和香港女生喜欢叫男朋友『Honey』<br />

一样,又有甜食的意思,一切都太巧了。<br />

加上有人和我说『Honi Honi』字义代表玻<br />

里尼西亚的传统会面,会晤的两人会边吸<br />

气边将鼻子靠在一起,有点像法国人见面<br />

会亲吻一样,根本就是玻里尼西亚式的礼<br />

貌性亲吻!这可真是天作之合啊!」<br />

Filippo Benicini has the kind of job that<br />

makes other gourmets envious. Head of<br />

Cheese and Deli at Great Food Hall, the<br />

high-end grocer at Hong Kong’s upscale<br />

Pacific Place mall, he spends his days tasting<br />

and evaluating the world’s most sought-after<br />

luxury food products, from Italy’s Dolce Nero<br />

black truffles to heritage jamón sourced from<br />

Hungary’s Mangelica pigs. If you’re susceptible<br />

to envy, it gets worse. The store has<br />

recently opened a room dedicated to artisanal<br />

cheeses from all around the world. It’s<br />

a big room, the cheeses are amazing and<br />

Filippo is in charge.<br />

But there is a catch: Filippo’s “office” is<br />

permanently chilled to 11 degrees Celsius at<br />

80% humidity, an environment that’s imperative<br />

to keeping cheese in top condition.<br />

130<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

Hong Kong’s cheese lovers finally have a room of their own.<br />

“It’s not the cold that worries me, I’m from<br />

Northern Italy,” says Filippo, who rarely<br />

wears anything warmer than his standard<br />

white chef’s linens. “It’s the dampness that<br />

really chills you – it’s not like mountain air.<br />

I try to come out once every hour, to warm<br />

up for a few minutes.”<br />

Not that he’s complaining. It might be<br />

cold, but for a cheese lover it’s close to paradise:<br />

“We have over 280 types of cheese<br />

here, which is the largest selection in Hong<br />

Kong by far,” says Filippo. The Cheese Room<br />

is impressive not just for the sheer number<br />

of cheeses on offer, but for a depth of selection<br />

which includes rarer and lesser-known<br />

精挑细选<br />

a fine selection<br />

artisanal cheeses. “Of course, sales are<br />

important,” says Filippo. “But I am given a<br />

lot of freedom to choose based on my personal<br />

taste as well.”<br />

When pressed, Filippo nominates Parmigiano-Reggiano<br />

as his favorite cheese.<br />

It’s made a mere ten miles from his childhood<br />

home and Filippo says he values the<br />

cheese not only for its savory, nutty flavor,<br />

but also for the happy memories it evokes:<br />

“I think for everyone, the food they love the<br />

best is the food that can take them back to<br />

childhood and happy memories of family.<br />

Of all food, it is cheese that for me has that<br />

special ability.”<br />

Filippo Benicini 主掌香港一流商城太古广<br />

场「Great」美食天地的起司熟食专柜,每<br />

天品尝、评鉴来自各国的梦幻奢华食材,<br />

如意大利的「Dolce Nero」黑松露或匈牙<br />

利「Mangelica」猪肉特制的顶级火腿等,<br />

这简直是老饕们梦寐以求的工作。专柜近<br />

来更开了专属空间来展售全球各地的高级<br />

起司。偌大空间里能发现各式经手工严选<br />

的起司。大感赞叹同时,也对 Filippo 能在<br />

此当家艳羡不已。<br />

但可别羡慕的太早,Filippo 的「办公<br />

室」,即起司的储蓄室需经年保持在恒温摄<br />

氏十一度及湿度百分之八十的环境下,才<br />

能让起司品质不坠。不过 Filippo 倒是说得<br />

云淡风清 :「我来自北意,其实不太怕冷」。<br />

的确 , 平常除了制式的主厨亚麻白袍外,他<br />

也甚少加上什么保暖配件。「倒是湿气,可<br />

没像高山上的清新空气那么干燥透爽,真<br />

的会让人打从骨子里冷起来,每个小时都<br />

要出来几分钟暖暖身才行。」<br />

Filippo 可没有一丝抱怨之意,冷归冷,<br />

但对起司迷来说,这里和天堂可几乎没什<br />

么两样,他自豪表示 :「我们的起司专柜<br />

全港最大,超过 280 种,应有尽有。」除<br />

了种类繁多,专柜还搜罗了各地稀有少见<br />

的手工起司,更是备受好评。 「当然,业<br />

绩也很重要,大体上我都能随心拣出自<br />

己认可的起司。」Filippo 透露心中的最爱<br />

就是出产地离幼时住家仅有十英里远的<br />

「Parmigiano-Reggiano」。他强调,一件高<br />

品质起司,不仅在味道及令人着迷的浓郁<br />

气味上要取胜,能否让人联想到往昔的快<br />

乐回忆也是重点所在 :「对许多人而言,最<br />

爱的食物能让他们重温小时侯和家庭的开<br />

心时光。对我来说,所有食物当中就属起<br />

司有这个神奇魔力。」<br />

St Marcellin from Isère in the Rhone Alps, France. A very<br />

soft cow’s milk creamy cheese with 50% fat content. The<br />

degree of ‘runniness’ increases with age as the exterior<br />

turns from blue-ish to yellow. “This is perfect with a<br />

Côtes Du Rhône red or a good pinot noir,” says Filippo.<br />

Etivaz d’Alpage A.O.C. from the Canton of Vaud,<br />

Pouligny St Pierre from Central France. Legend has<br />

it that the distinctive incomplete pyramid shape of<br />

this soft goat’s milk cheese came about when<br />

Napoleon Bonaparte, still incensed by his doomed<br />

foray into Egypt, came upon the cheese at<br />

a small town in the region. The original<br />

pyramid structure allegedly brought back<br />

too many unpleasant memories, so he<br />

lopped off the top with his sword.<br />

Shropshire Blue from Nottinghamshire,<br />

England. The name is misleading: this<br />

creamy blue cheese with a slightly yeasty<br />

Described as a cross between Stilton and<br />

Cheshire, Filippo recommends serving<br />

it as part of a cheese dessert plate.<br />

红酒贵公子<br />

wine player<br />

For more than a decade, Paolo Pong has been helping<br />

shape and transform Hong Kong’s wine tastes.<br />

Twelve years ago Paolo Pong saw a gap in the Hong Kong wine market and founded<br />

Altaya Wines – a wholesale wine merchant giving private investors and trade<br />

customers access to the world’s best and rarest wines. His vision had a powerful<br />

influence on the Hong Kong wine scene, opening up the world of small boutique<br />

producers to the Hong Kong consumer and awakening winemakers around the globe<br />

to the importance of Hong Kong as a serious player in the market. TK caught up with<br />

him to ask about how the wine scene in Hong Kong has evolved over the last decade.<br />

§ 十二年前,庞建贻看准香港尚未成熟的红酒市场,创立「大亚洋酒」,为<br />

私人投资商及金字塔顶端的商业客户引荐世界一流且稀有的酒品。「大亚洋<br />

酒」就此改写香港红酒市场的生态,让香港品酒人士有机会接触来自世界各<br />

地的一流小型酒庄,也让香港一跃成为全球重要的红酒市场,变成各大酒商<br />

的兵家必争之地。庞建贻接受TK专访,畅谈香港红酒市场近十年的发展。<br />

When did you become interested in<br />

wine?<br />

In my university days I attended master<br />

classes and tastings. I was in Boston at the<br />

time, but I would make special trips to<br />

New York and sometimes even to London<br />

just to taste wine. That’s my passion. That<br />

is really how I got into wine seriously. I<br />

also made friends with some of the critics<br />

and they really taught me a lot. People like<br />

Jancis Robinson and Michael Broadbent.<br />

They would see this young kid attending all<br />

何时开始对葡萄酒产生兴趣?<br />

大学时期我住在波士顿,但为了大师<br />

班及品酒课,经常就大老远跑到纽约、甚<br />

至伦敦上课,下了极大功夫去研究葡萄酒,<br />

大概就是那时候开始认真思考红酒事业的<br />

可能性。我与不少酒评家变成朋友,也从<br />

他们身上学了很多。每课必到,渐渐有机<br />

会与 Jancis Robinson 及 Michael Broadbent<br />

等赫赫有名的专家熟识、聚会并深入讨论<br />

红酒。那是 90 年代末期吧,在 2000 年毕<br />

业后,也承蒙他们的推荐信,让我有机会<br />

远赴酒乡波尔多学艺。最开始我在酿酒世<br />

wine masters<br />

these events – we became quite close and<br />

started our own gatherings, where we would<br />

really discuss wine. That was the late 90s.<br />

Once I graduated in 2000 they very kindly<br />

wrote me reference letters so I could go<br />

off to Bordeaux to learn about wine. First<br />

thing I did when I got there was to work the<br />

harvest for the famous Moeuix family who<br />

own Chateau Petrus.<br />

It was fascinating, really hands-on –<br />

hard work but that’s how you get close to<br />

the earth, soil and grapes. It was a wonderful<br />

experience and I learned a lot. I started to<br />

respect the subject a lot more. I realized it’s<br />

not just about drinking wine at a fine dining<br />

restaurant; it’s not about the fancy service<br />

provided by a great sommelier. It’s about the<br />

hard work behind the scenes that you don’t<br />

really see. This was the turning point for<br />

me – I thought this could be an interesting<br />

industry to get into. And subsequently I<br />

went to Cheval Blanc to learn about the<br />

winemaking side. I participated in every<br />

little step from cleaning barrels upwards.<br />

I learned about the whole process. It’s an<br />

experience I treasure a lot.<br />

What was the wine scene like in Hong<br />

Kong then?<br />

At that point it was dominated by a<br />

handful of big players – commercial brands<br />

that were heavily advertised and ubiquitous.<br />

Pretty much every five-star restaurant and<br />

all the restaurant groups had the same wines<br />

offered on their lists. That’s when I thought<br />

it would be a great idea to start importing<br />

boutique brands – mainly family-owned<br />

estates that were not represented at that<br />

stage in Hong Kong.<br />

That was a wise move when I look back.<br />

Once the consumer’s palate is no longer<br />

satisfied by the major brands, they start<br />

looking elsewhere – they start looking for<br />

the unique product.<br />

What challenges did you face when you<br />

started Altaya?<br />

136<br />

| TASTING KITCHEN | september 2013<br />

It took a few years before some of the<br />

boutique winemakers agreed to export to<br />

Hong Kong – many of them did not know<br />

exactly where Hong Kong was! It took a<br />

lot of hard work. At the consumer end<br />

major hotels or restaurant groups found it<br />

easier to work with a few big players, who<br />

could provide them with all the products<br />

they needed, both wines and spirits. I was<br />

a small, young wine merchant going into<br />

these five-star hotels and asking them to<br />

put my wines on the list. A few gave me<br />

opportunities. A few took one or two years<br />

of constantly knocking on the door. But it<br />

paid off.<br />

And what is the wine scene like now?<br />

If you open any wine list now in Hong<br />

Kong, you will find bigger brand wines<br />

alongside those from smaller or boutique<br />

producers. It’s quite rewarding to see the<br />

change in the last decade. It is not only me<br />

– there are other young companies springing<br />

up that have also influenced the change.<br />

Ten years ago there were a lot of people<br />

who really appreciated wine in Hong Kong<br />

– now even more people do. Ten years ago<br />

many suppliers thought their own national<br />

markets were enough for them. Now they<br />

realize the need to think about the Asian<br />

market. We have a different role now.<br />

Not only are we growing in terms of wine<br />

consumption but we also lead the trend for a<br />

lot of the mainland market. Suppliers look at<br />

Hong Kong from a very different perspective<br />

from before.<br />

Tell us about your three region-specific<br />

Etc wine shops. Where did the idea<br />

come from?<br />

First from my passion for these three<br />

regions – Burgundy, Champagne and<br />

Bordeaux – and for the variety of wines they<br />

offer. These are three areas that Hong Kong<br />

people recognize too and I also believed they<br />

would enjoy getting to know them better. The<br />

satellite regions of Bordeaux are reasonably<br />

undiscovered and have some wonderful<br />

value wines. In Burgundy and Champagne<br />

there are countless small producers, who<br />

realize they have this golden piece of land<br />

and are making more and more interesting<br />

wines.<br />

So we decided to focus on these regions<br />

and to do a lot of tastings and classes to<br />

help customers learn more about them. We<br />

have two to three events per week – both<br />

in-depth and introductory courses – teaching<br />

people about the different regions, and<br />

offering more detailed tastings of how the<br />

vineyards can differ within a certain village<br />

in Burgundy. There is so much to discover!<br />

What are some up and coming wine<br />

regions?<br />

I will not shut the door to any region. If<br />

dedicated people find that magical spot, they<br />

can make very nice wine. We import wines<br />

from England – we have this wonderful<br />

sparkling wine called Chapel Down. They<br />

served it at the royal wedding. At some point<br />

someone will find a very interesting terroir<br />

in China and be able to make high quality<br />

wines there too. I think China is the next<br />

place to look: Shandong, Xinjiang, Shaanxi.<br />

It will take a lot of time to see the results,<br />

years to realize the whole project, as it is a<br />

long process. But it’s exciting!<br />

HK has now arrived as a wine-loving<br />

city – when did you notice the change?<br />

The big turning point was 2008 when the<br />

Hong Kong Government abolished tax on<br />

wine – suppliers really started looking at this<br />

market and began travelling here extensively<br />

and hosting events several times a year.<br />

Producers, even small producers, began<br />

allocating us more wines. They realized<br />

the Hong Kong market was becoming very<br />

important and would become increasingly so<br />

for the next twenty to thirty years, so they<br />

need to feed the market with wine. Hong<br />

Kong is now the place to sell wine and we<br />

are very lucky to be doing that.<br />

家 Moeuix 旗下的「柏翠山庄」从事第一线<br />

农事工作。<br />

每天与土地、土壤及葡萄接触,虽然<br />

是苦差事,但绝对是不可取代的难得经验,<br />

让我获益良多。我对酿酒业因此也有了进<br />

一步的认识及尊敬,除了坐在高级餐厅品<br />

评红酒,享受侍酒师以客为尊的顶级服务<br />

外,背后还有鲜为人知、点点滴滴的辛勤<br />

投入及努力。也在此时我首次萌生以红酒<br />

为业的想法,算是人生的一大转捩点。后<br />

来我转入「白马庄园 (Cheval Blanc)」修习<br />

酿酒技术,从清洗酒桶开始,不放过任何<br />

一个小步骤,最终才得以学到全貌,整个<br />

过程至今都让我回味、珍惜不已。<br />

当时香港的葡萄酒市场是怎样?<br />

几乎是由几家商业大酒商所主宰,他<br />

们重金下广告,无所不在。走遍任何一家<br />

五星级餐厅或餐饮集团,酒单几乎大同小<br />

异。所以我才会想做专门代理顶级葡萄酒<br />

的生意,当时这些酿酒世家所产的一流佳<br />

酿在香港市场几乎都看不到。现在看来,<br />

当时的决定是正确的。当大酒商无法满足<br />

消费者的胃口时,就是我的机会。消费者<br />

会放宽眼光,寻找独特的产品。毕竟他们<br />

也想与朋友分享新玩意。<br />

「大亚洋酒」创立初期面临何种挑战?<br />

与一流酒庄交涉可不容易,常常一谈<br />

好几年才获首肯,更别说有些连香港在哪<br />

都不知道的,更是难上加难!没有全神投<br />

入真的做不来。就消费者端来看,主流大<br />

饭店或餐饮集团与市场大酒商常是一拍即<br />

合,轻轻松松就能取得各式葡萄酒及烈酒<br />

等所需产品。但我当时年轻、加上还是个<br />

小小的进口商,要与五星级饭店合作谈何<br />

容易,有些愿意给我机会,也有要花上一<br />

两年才能打通关的,不过一切都是值得的。<br />

现在香港的葡萄酒市场您又怎么看?<br />

现在到香港餐厅打开酒单,可以看到<br />

除了大厂牌外,还有来自小型酿酒商及酒<br />

庄的葡萄酒。十年过去,出现这种转变真<br />

的让人很欣慰。不只我,还要归功市场上<br />

其他的年轻公司大力投入,才造就目前这<br />

种局面。十年前香港就有很多懂酒的人,<br />

当时很多酒商都自满于内需市场,现在也<br />

意识到将触角延伸到其他亚洲国家的重要<br />

性。我们的角色与过去已大不相同,香港<br />

的葡萄酒消费曲线在不断成长之余,也站<br />

上了领导内地市场趋势的置高点。香港在<br />

世界酒商眼中已不能同日而语了。<br />

Etc 专卖店的构想从何而来?<br />

首先我对勃艮地、香槟区及波尔多三<br />

大酒乡早已钟情多年,出产的多种葡萄酒<br />

我也非常喜爱。香港酒迷们对这三大区域<br />

也不陌生,相信也乐意进一步探索其奥妙。<br />

波尔多邻近的卫星城镇虽然较不受重视,<br />

但也出产多支顶级佳酿 ;勃艮地及香槟区<br />

则有不可计数的小型酒庄运用天赐的黄金<br />

风土条件,精酿出一支支引人入胜的葡萄<br />

酒。所以我们决定聚焦于这些区域,透过<br />

品酒会及相关课程增进顾客对葡萄酒的了<br />

解。每周都有两三次入门及进阶课程,引<br />

领学员认识不同区域的特色,藉由详细的<br />

品酒解说,介绍伯艮地同一村庄中不同葡<br />

萄园所产红酒的细微差异。可以学的很多!<br />

接下来看好哪些葡萄酒新兴区域?<br />

任何区域都有发展的潜力。只要有心、<br />

锲而不舍地寻找上佳地点,都有可能酿制<br />

一流的美酒。像我们就有一款英国进口的<br />

气泡酒叫「Chapel Down」,品质极佳,为<br />

皇室婚礼御用。说不定之后也会有人在中<br />

国找到风土俱佳的地方,开始生产高品质<br />

的葡萄酒。中国绝对值得密切注意 :山东、<br />

新疆及陕西都大有可为。可能需费时许久<br />

才能看到成果、甚至花上好几年才有整体<br />

计画付诸实行,绝非一蹴可几,但前景着<br />

实让人兴奋不已!<br />

红酒蔚为风潮,香港也已成为美酒之都。<br />

您何时注意到此一转变?<br />

香港政府 2008 年起废除征收葡萄酒<br />

税,是一大转捩点。自此许多酒商正视香<br />

港市场、频繁造访,每年举办多次活动 ;<br />

眼看香港市场不断茁壮,此一趋势可能未<br />

来二三十年不歇,越来越多酿酒商、甚或<br />

小型酒庄也欲占得先机,开始大量供应各<br />

种不同的葡萄酒。香港现在可说是酒商的<br />

梦幻之地,身为其中一员,我真的觉得很<br />

幸运。<br />

At Galaxy Macau’s restaurant Gosto, Chef de Cuisine Mario Gil makes Sweet Rice Pudding Mousse,<br />

a delicious variation on a Portuguese classic. “It’s so simple,” he says. “Rice, cinnamon, milk<br />

and sugar. I have done a mousse to give it more texture, but the flavors are all there.”<br />

澳门银河葡轩(Gosto)总厨马俊杰精心改良葡萄牙传统点心,特制滋味诱人的甜饭奶油布丁慕斯。他说:<br />

「作法很简单,只要准备米、肉桂、牛奶和糖就好了。 在保证原汁原味的基础上,做慕斯是让层次更加丰富。」<br />
