Question:
The holiday season is approaching…what are your favorite vegetable side dishes? How do you modernize the classics?
Answer:
Root squashes are a classic side dish going back to the early days of the Americas. Rather than just roasting with butter and maple, I like to glaze with global flavors such as miso, gochujang, or xo sauce. If it’s a sophisticated meal, I turn squash puree into mini souffles spiced with burnt honey or black garlic.
