Pan-seared Sea Scallops in WuWanWo Soy Sauce & Bergamot Oil

4 Tbsp Organic Bergamot Oil 4 Tbsp Trampetti Organic EVOO 4 each sea scallops, cleaned (per guest) 1/4 cup WuWanWo Harmonious Soy Sauce

Julienned Vegetable Saute (per guest) 1/4 cup snap peas, julienned 1/4 cup carrot, finely julienned 1/4 cup bean sprouts 1/2 cup shitake, finely julienned 1/4 cup green onion 2 Tbsp green onion, finely chopped 2 tsp sesame seeds, toasted 1 tsp Casina Rossa “Sea & Salt”

Begin the vegetable sauté by heating Trampetti EVOO in a medium sauté pan. When oil is hot, sear the shitake very well, caramelizing edges a bit. Add in carrots and toss together, allowing to just get to “al dente” but not too well cooked, then add snap peas and bean sprouts at the end, just to warm through, but do not cook. Turn off heat and add in green onions and toasted sesame seeds, drizzle in half of the Trampetti EVOO and toss well. Set aside. For the scallops, heat a medium sauté pan with 2 Tbsp Trampetti EVOO until oil is hot, but just barely to the smoke point. Using tongs, carefully place scallops one at a time on the flat sides to sear well. As you see browning on the edges of the first side turn each scallop over to brown the other side being careful not to cook the scallops through too much. Place a cup of the warm vegetables in the center of each service plate and then place 4 scallops around each pile of vegetables. Garnish each plate around and across the scallops with a drizzle of WuWanWo Harmonious Soy Sauce, 4 Tbsp Bergamot Oil, more green onion, sesame seeds, and a nice sprinkle of Sea & Salt to finish.

A Mid-Winter’s Vegetable and Olive Ragout

1 cup baby carrots, peeled, rough chopped and roasted 1 cup baby brussels sprouts, halved and roasted 1 cup baby golden beets, roasted, peeled and diced 2 cups rainbow chard, cleaned and julienned 1/4 cup lemon olives, pitted and sliced thin 1 Tbsp Casina Rossa EVOO with Sicilian Lemon 1/4 cup Colli Etruschi Organic EVOO 1 each lemon, half of it finely zested, and all of it juiced 1 tsp thyme, finely chopped 1 Tbsp Italian parsley, cleaned and rough chopped 1 Tbsp Organic Wild Pine Nuts, lightly toasted 2 cups vegetable broth (1/2 cup each carrots, leeks, yellow onion, celery) 1 Tbsp Piranske Soline Sea Salt

Begin by making a basic broth of roasted aromatic vegetables by rough- chopping them, toss them with a splash of Colli Etruschi EVOO and lay them out on a sheet pan. Roast in the oven at 400 degrees until very well caramelized. Stir them around with a long spoon and turn the pan as needed to get even browning. Place in a sauce pot and submerge plus 1 inch with cold water. Bring to a boil then turn down to a simmer for at least 2 hours. A good quality, organic vegetable broth can be used if time is a factor. Prepare each of the main vegetables, tossed with a drizzle of Colli Etruschi EVOO, a pinch of thyme and salt; roast each separately on a sheet pan at 400 degrees until just tender, but still al dente. Combine in mixing bowl and set aside. Begin the final preparation by heating 2 Tbsp ofColli Etruschi EVOO in a sauté pan and sweating the chard. Add in roasted vegetables, broth and then allow to come to a boil and heat through. Finish with parsley, lemon juice and zest, and a pinch of Sea Salt. Pour into a large pasta bowl and garnish with olives, Pine Nuts, and a drizzle of Casina Rossa EVOO with Sicilian Lemon.
