so ahh we're getting ready for a great party tonight ahh
featuring umm alittle bit of American beef,
some Alaskan salmon, almonds, pistachios, dates,
prunes, a little bit of our own pork products from Sonoma County.
obviously because we're here at the Ambassador's residence
ahh using amazing American ahh U.S. produce, I thought
we do some stuff that was influence from the U.S. and some that was influenced here in the
UK. but also some stuff that
has some of a my background, so there is a couple of Mexican influenced dishes, so there is a
California being some of the influence from
from the Mexician influence, because you know I was born in Mexico. so using those flavors, there is
take for instance
so its just trying to use bits and pieces of all the different ingredients is what makes it nice.
well I'm quite spoiled actually, that Iwas sent some amazing produce, some wonderful produce from
california
I have been sent some amazing fresh produce, some ahh umm Alaskan salmon
lovely sockeye salmon and some black cod. so we are doing ahh umm
smoked salmon dish using, ahh salmon we smoked ourselves
umm with some beetroot port
reductions and some horseradish cream onto wild rice bellini's
we are doing a salmon ceviche. we're doing ahh ahh
black cod with like a ahh miso glaze
and then we'll ahh use the dates, we're ahh filling those with a ahh
a smoked ricotta, lemon zest, ahh almonds and truffle honey.
my husband makes bacon and we raise heritage breed pigs
outside. and so we've wrapped
dates in our bacon and put a ahh almond inside
and then I made a little vinaigrette to put on top
so that it will add a little bit of ahh sweetness and a little bit of spice
and then we also have a steak and Stilton sandwich. so we wanted to combine
a little bit of American beef
with something very present here
which is Stilton, an amazing blue cheese. and my husband makes
prosciutto also, that we're featuring tonight. its four-year-old
and ahh ahh it'll it'll compete envia with Spain's finest
and Italy's finest. so we're happy to show them that Americans can do it too.
I wish my working life was always as easy as it
has been today. the the kitchen staff have been amazing, the kitchen is gorgeous
