Aszú
- Level:
-
Difficult
Aszú means botrytized grapes and it’s the base of the world’s oldest wine. Hungary is famous for sweet aszú wine which gives the base of my dessert. Tokaj is the place where it comes from – I paired it with exceptional ingredients from this region, like walnut and fig. Madirofolo and Zephyr chocolates go well with this trio while they create a smooth yet exciting balance with a little kick.
