Mango Aragula Sampler




The components include, mango parfait, pain de gene, arugula brulee, mango sauce, arugula sauce, yogurt vanilla meringues, mango arugula tuille, crumbs, fresh mango swirls and arugula leaves.
Originally the idea was to use arugula sorbet but due to temperature and service issues had to replace it with arugula creme brulee and fortunately it came out much brighter in colour and better in taste...
Using a dark tonned plate gave an appeal to dessert but it could not elevate the beautiful colours of the sauces and crumbs.lets c would try this out with a better white plate. i guess it would bring on a better touch of elegance to it.
Try the combinations out as it is a lovely dessert for summers, mangoes being in season and the beautiful sharpness of arugula brings a refreshing taste to the dessert. if you replace it with sorbet it would work out better. Overall a very light and refreshing dessert that vanishes on your pallet leaving behind lovely flavors to tingle your tongue.
