Leek Cannoli with Potato Mousse, Potato Tuile, Pickle and Kombu Salad
Chef Dan: "Amanda and I were a team and took a lot of our inspiration for our duality with the Burnham blocks. Frank Lloyd Wright designed buildings that were meant for low income housing. There are three ingredients for this whole dish - potatoes, leeks, and kombu. We have a leek cannoli with a potato mousse, brown butter and potato foam, potato tuile, and then a potato and pickle kombu salad." My plate is about scarcity.
Tom Collichio: "I like Dan's story. I like what he's thinking. Taking the low income housing Frank Lloyd Wright was known for and trying to get that onto a dish."
Dominique Crenn: "I think that's clever."
Tom Colicchio: "The problem with the dish is the leek needs to be cooked more."
Gail Simmons: "And these little crispies are very salty."
