Roasted Corn Vinaigrette

Roasted Corn Vinaigrette: A dressing combining an acidic liquid, oil and the prepared ingredient. Whisking disperses the oil temporarily; separation is normal unless another ingredient stabilizes the mixture.

Context

Use cooked edible kernels, or clean food-grade cobs only for a strained infusion. Kernels have skins, so strain for a fine cream; a cob or husk is not a garnish to eat.

Example

A menu could use this preparation to dress a salad just before serving. This is an illustrative use, not a standardized recipe.

How THT uses it

At THT, this preparation is considered only when its taste and texture improve the actual dish; we adapt the portion and presentation to the guests.
