To make the Sauternes
jelly, soak the gelatine in enough cold water to just cover the
gelatine. Once the gelatine has softened, drain off the excess water
and transfer the gelatine to a heavy-based saucepan. Add 150ml of the
wine to the gelatine. Over a very low heat, cook gently, stirring,
until the gelatine has dissolved. Stir in the remaining wine and season
with salt. Pour the mixture into a large dish and chill in the fridge
until set.
Spread 8 gingerbread slices with foie
gras. Start to build 4 millefeuille by placing the gingerbread in
layers. Top each one with a slice of gingerbread. Trim away the crusts
and cut each millefeuille into 2 triangles.
Season
the salad leaves with salt and freshly ground pepper. Drizzle walnut
oil. Toss to coat. Garnish each plate with the salad leaves. Chop the
white wine gelatine into small cubes. Place 2 triangles on the serving
plates. Arrange salad leaves and white wine gelatine around the
triangles. Serve immediately. |
