COCINA AL VACIO



COCINA AL VACIO

 Un metodo rapido y sano?

En nuestro fast food el mejor metodo de coccion puede ser la cocina al vacio.
Este es un sistema de produccion que tiene muchos vantajes porque permite de mejorar la calidad organoléptica de muchas materias primas y ayuda a mejorar la seguridad alimentaria.
La cocina al vacio se realiza introducendo los alimentos en una bolsa en la que se realiza el vacio y se sella.
Pues se someten a tratamiento térmico en un medio humedo o liquido con temperatura controlata:

  • HORNOS DE CONVENCCION VAPOR
  • BANOS MARIA TERMOSTATICOS
  • VAPORERAS
  • AUTOCLAVES
La cocina al vacio puede prolongar la vida util del alimiento con la justa condiciones higiénicas, de temperatura y de tiempo.
Con este método, se puede servir un plato con un tiempo mas corto entre el mando y el servicio de mesa.

En Italia el vacio se utiliza poco, pero creo que podria ser una innovacion beneficiosa en diferentes puntos de vista.

Questa ricetta in un Fast Food del benessere sarebbe l'ideale sia se consumata al momento sia come take away, comodamente trasportabile in contenitori in PVC. E' ricca di sali minerali e vitamine  e puo' essere considerata un alimento sia plastico che energetico (grazie alla presenza di amido,fibra,vitamine,proteine e una piccola quantita' di grassi).  Secondo me potrebbe essere rivisitata con aggiunta di prodotti disponibili localmente e rispondenti alle linee guida della tipica dieta mediterranea: fagioli e mazzancolle.

Welcome to L’Anima, London’s award winning Italian restaurant in the heart of the City. L’Anima offers the finest of contemporary Italian cooking in surroundings nothing short of sheer elegance. 

Translated L’Anima is Italian for soul. This essence has been incorporated in every detail of this charming and sophisticated restaurant and bar; from Francesco Mazzei’s creative Italian menus and selected wine list, to the inviting interiors providing comfortable, intimate and memorable experience. 

FOOD
Francesco’s philosophy and passion for food was cultivated at childhood and developed while working for some of the most renowned establishments in the world.

Francesco and his team strive to make dishes that fulfil a true Italian’s most essential senses - exceptional tasty but simple food, beautifully presented in austere but welcoming surroundings. Ingredients are sourced from around Britain and Italy interpreting dishes from Calabria, Puglia, Sicily and Sardinia, and reach further into the Mediterranean with Moorish influences revealing dishes with bold yet clean and distinct flavours.

FRANCESCO MAZZEI   -   EXECUTIVE CHEF
From early childhood, Francesco could always be found in the kitchen cooking with his mother, making their own olive oil, tomato sauce, salami and bread. With the determination to buy his first Levis jeans with his own money, he started working in his uncle’s Gelateria in Calabria at the age of nine, learning to make ice cream and cakes. At 14 he met renowned Italian chef Angelo Sabetta who recognised his talent and encouraged him to pursue his dream of becoming a chef. After catering college and opening his first restaurant before going into military service, Francesco moved to Rome in 1992, where he worked a short stint at the Jolie Hotel before joining The Grand Hotel et de Roma. He moved to London in 1996 to learn English and worked at several restaurants before starting to work at his dream hotel The Dorchester. A move back to Rome offered a position at the Michelin starred restaurant Eden Terrazza on the top floor of the Eden Hotel overlooking Rome. In 2002 Francesco was approached by the Santini family to open ‘Santini’ restaurants in both Edinburgh and Milan. Moving back to London Francesco worked with Alan Yau as Head Chef at Yau’s Italian restaurant in Marylebone, Anda; he also worked with the pastry sections of both Hakkasan and Yauatcha and then moved to Bangkok to launch an Italian restaurant at the Royal Sporting Club. In September 2005 Francesco opened Franco’s on Jermyn Street for the Hambro family to acclaimed reviews. Francesco then moved on to open the kitchen of renowned restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King’s latest London venture, St Alban in September 2006. In June 2008 Francesco Mazzei opened L’Anima. 
 
Francesco’s recipes have appeared in magazines and newspapers wildly across the world and he demonstrates regularly on TV shows in the UK. His consultancy work has seen him and his team work with Alan Yau in the launch of Princi, consult on Italian concept for Istanbuldoors and prepared the Gala Dinner at the Italian stand during the Expo in Shanghai 2010 as well as the Gala Dinner for the Calabrian stand at Vinitaly International Wine & Spirits Fair.
