Inspired by a boudin run in Louisiana, Peter Jackson is throwin' down a "Back From New Orleans" Dinner on June 23.
Peter is one of my favorite chefs doing the whole underground dining thing. I got my first taste of his food last summer at at Ghetto Gourmet event, and then we met again sitting at the same table at another ghet event a few months later. Cool guy, awesome food... and his pickled watermelon rind blew my mind. Who knew the rind of the watermelon could be better than the actual melon part of the watermelon?
The Menu
- Cajun Liberty Duck Boudin Sausage with pickled watermelon rind and whole grain mustard
- She-Crab soup
- BBQ White Boot Brigade Shrimp and Sweet Potato Tart
- Organic Greens with Pumpkin Seed Brittle and Pumpkin Seed Oil Vinaigrette
- Summer Berry Napoleon with Caramelized Pecans and Lemon Bourbon Sauce
Go. Eat. Tell Peter I said hello.
