The trending topic of culinary ashes, their application and use, is the focus of this work.
The recipes were developed by Heiko Antoniewicz and his long-time companion Adrien Hurnungee. For cooking, they used a Kamado, a ceramic oven from Monolith. The two chefs employ ashes in very innovative ways. The recipes are inspiring.
Heiko Antoniewicz is not only one of the best chefs in Germany, but he is also known for always seeking promising techniques and ingredients. He doesn't just look to the future; sometimes, old traditions offer innovative perspectives on culinary delights.
