If you’ve joined us for dinner in the past weeks you might have seen our lovely hanging quince. While they are a festive decoration, they’re also being prepared for the menu!

Hoshigaki is a centuries-old traditional Japanese preparation of sun dried persimmons. This method was developed to help preserve the fruit so they can be enjoyed through the winter season. We got some lovely quince from and wanted to see if this method could be applied to local produce.

The second video is of our sous chef, Mauricio, meticulously massaging each quince, as he does every night, to prepare them. This keeps the fruit from hardening, softens the interior and helps concentrate and bring the sugars to the surface. We are excited for you to try them soon!
