Fall Awakening
Notes from Bruno Feldeisen, Executive Pastry Chef at Four Seasons Hotel Vancouver:
“We have to steep Organic Long Life Green perfectly, to be sure that we extract enough flavor for the tea sorbet. To add texture, we create a quinoa crumble. Then we roast a pear in the oven, sweetened by some honey and sugar.”
