The Flavors That Make This Dish Shine
Pomegranate Bordelaise Sauce
The centerpiece of the dish, Bordelaise sauce, is simmered with red wine, vegetable stock, and fresh herbs. Finished with a glossy beurre manié, it’s a luscious coating for the Juicy Marbles filet.
-
Pro Tip: For added flair, ignite the alcohol while reducing the wine. It’s not essential, but it’s definitely dramatic.
Creamed Spinach
Rich and creamy, this plant-based take on a classic side is made with fresh spinach, soy cream, and a hint of garlic.
-
Upgrade It: Add a sprinkle of nutmeg or nutritional yeast for an extra layer of flavor.
Yellow Beet Salad
Roasted yellow beets, drizzled with sesame oil and balsamic glaze, bring a refreshing contrast to the dish’s richness.
-
Customization Tip: Top with toasted nuts or seeds for extra crunch.
Assembling the Dish
Each element is prepared separately, then brought together for a symphony of textures and flavors. The Juicy Marbles filet takes center stage, draped in Bordelaise sauce, with the creamed spinach and beet salad completing the plate.
-
Plating Tip: Serve on a large, flat plate to showcase the vibrant colors and textures of each component.
Pairing Suggestion: Enjoy with a robust red wine or a non-alcoholic sparkling cranberry drink.
