Chef Benoist Gérard's Tips :

benoist gerard, chef cuisinier

You can replace the scallops with fish (sea bass, salmon, sea bream, tuna, cod, etc.).
Instead of caviar, use herring roe or trout or salmon roe.
Cook the beetroot the day before and leave them in aluminium in the fridge.

 

Food and wine pairings from the wine merchant :

1st pairing:

The roundness and the fruity and floral notes of Michel Biday's Bouzeron will go perfectly with this sweet and sour alliance.

In addition, the fine mineral structure of the wine will underline the iodine side of the raw scallops. 

2nd pairing:

A discreet nose, slightly floral and fruity with a mineral touch.

A precise and dense palate with a perfect balance between fruit and intensity.

A finish of great potential. In addition, its fine mineral structure will underline the iodine side of the raw scallops.
