Chestnut honey and black garlic

Preparation based on chestnut honey harvested in the Périgord and black garlic from our production.

Black garlic is the result of a very slow caramelization of white garlic cloves following a long maturation in an oven in a humid environment (Maillard reaction). It is a mild condiment - with a balsamic flavor for some, liquorice or prune for others - very popular in Japan for its virtues and its umami. We have associated it with the malty and woody notes of chestnut honey.

To use like a chutney or an onion compote:

• as a condiment with your meats (chicken skewers, duck breast, etc.)
  
• with roasted vegetables, pan-fried mushrooms
• to accompany your cheeses
