Our asparagus supply was so up and down that I considered scrapping the idea of using them. I then realised, why not try and use them in a different way. That&#8217;s where the burnt asparagus emulsion came into play and we ended up creating this amazing beef dish around it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is your food philosophy?<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>Great food brings people together and creates great memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And your cooking style? <\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>I follow a modern style of cooking with a dash of complexity and always with a few childhood memories. I love barbecues so smoking, charring and curing are all on the list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Tantalus Estate\" class=\"wp-image-4364\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" title=\"\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-1024x683.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-300x200.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-768x512.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-1080x720.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-1280x854.jpg 1280w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-980x654.jpg 980w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016-480x320.jpg 480w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/20170112_tantalus_0016.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Sweeping views of the vineyard and valley, create an enchanting and unforgettable visit<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We chat to Tantalus Estate Head Chef Tino Passano about their beef eye fillet recipe featuring in My Gourmet Bag.
