    Really pretty, sounds like a great combo of flavors, and the portion size is fine but just do a smaller plate.

  2. I removed the legs, wing and neck and left the breast on the cage to dry in a fridge for 2 weeks. The skin got super dry, removed the breast from the bones and seared on cast iron. Apples were cosmic crisps so they held their texture even when cooked. Ume sauce was made with ground ginger cooked with rock sugar and water. Ume was pitted, mashed up and mixed in to the ginger sugar and milled. It’s then put in a blender and thickened with shallot oil.

  3. The apple arrangement is reminiscent of the corkscrew shape of a ducks penis. Maybe I’m just having a weird day.

    ok what about this? Fill the bottom of that plate with your sauce, apples flat lightly seasoned (I’m thinking cardamom) and then two or three pieces of your duck, skin up cuz I can already tell how good it looks?

    Edit: two skin up and one like in the picture to show how perfectly you cooked it.

  5. I think it’s beautiful, but I feel like you could expand your earth tones a bit. Maybe something royal purple or a forest green.

    It seems like a gorgeous and delicious dish.
    If I REALLY had to nitpick, I think it needs 1 cool color. It’s all warm colors. Plus the flaccid apple threw it a little off.

    But either way incredibly delicious in sure and I’d be happy to receive that plate

  7. Maybe it’s good, maybe even absolutely delicious, but the portion… maybe if I get 10 other dishes, I’ll be satisfied. 😶

  8. I’m not crazy about that sauce color. Maybe you could bump it with some fresh plum peels?

    Maybe a little more color on the apples?

  9. Really like the style of playing & flavours sound great. I would say though, if the plating is going to be this clean and simple then the slicing of the apples really needs to be consistent

  10. I think it’s a wonderful dish, I’d love a Bright/fresh bitter green. But that’s just me!
