3 questions for Ensorito
What is your favourite ingredient in the kitchen?
Lemon. Not just to add acidity, but to bring dishes to life. Zest, juice... It connects Italy with the sea and adds a touch of lightness, even to powerful flavours.
What is the most underrated ingredient in the North Sea?
Cuttlefish. Often overlooked or overcooked, when prepared properly it is very tender and has a deep flavour. Cuttlefish is actually the link between North Sea and Mediterranean cuisine.
How would you describe your type of cuisine?
Italian soul with a North Sea heart. Product first, ego last. A cuisine that doesn't try too hard to impress, but lingers. A bit like that walk on the beach after dinner :-)
