Menu Concept
Creamy Ginger Pepper sauce is the base for this speed-scratch soup! We start with this flavorful ready-to-use Culinary Sauce and build layers of nuanced flavor over top. Adding in cream, diced tomatoes, Oregano and herbs, cream, Lemongrass and Roasted Bell Peppers and purée for a creamy Asian-inspired bisque. Garnish with fresh herbs, scallion curls, sesame oil and crème fraîche.
