Salt Cured Bonito

eat, salty, autumn, winter, music, OST

Food Notes

A naturally butterfly shaped fish fillet. Tender iridescent flesh. Salt cured bonito (lakerda). Extra virgin olive oil. Fresh courgette “spaghetti”. Baby tomatoes. Parsley. Pickled wild pistachio shoots (tsitsiravla), a gift from a friend living in Mount Pelion who, luckily enough, was not affected by the ravaging floods in the region.

Our thoughts are with all those suffering from the severe flash floods in Thessaly. Sheer disaster…

Music Pairing

Tony Anderson, “Butterflies”.

Music Bites

Tony Anderson is a young American composer, born in 1986. He presents himself as a “sonic architect”. As explained in his website: “Meticulously blending organic, electronic, and ambient elements, he is making a standout contribution to cinematic music.” The serene score of the piece chosen for my bonito dish delineates the ambient perception of butterflies as they sore gracefully.
