A FRESH TAKE
Experience the vibrant flavors of fresh ingredients and see how satisfying good food can truly be as Sub-Zero and Wolf partner with Good Food Community.
October 5, 2024 - As the brands continue to commit to freshness and flavor, Sub-Zero and Wolf, in partnership with Good Food Community (GFC), honor the authentic taste of nourishing meals and support the dedication of our farmers.
Inspired by the "Seed to Plate" campaign, Sub-Zero and Wolf hosted a cooking demo in their exclusive showroom aimed to showcase how food goes beyond taste, focusing on the connection between food, its source, and its impact. It highlights how food grown by dedicated farmers on nutrient-rich soil can nourish both body and soul. Through this event, attendees were encouraged to re-explore the flavors of good food and shift their perspectives, offering “A Fresh Take” that emphasizes true nourishment from farm to plate.
The afternoon began with a nutritious Mung Bean Wrap with Fermented Salsa and Hummus. Made with organic vegetables, often having a short shelf life, these stayed fresher for longer inside the Sub-Zero refrigerator. Thanks to its Dual Refrigerator System, the refrigerator had the perfect humid and chilly environment best suited for fresh ingredients. The wrap was cooked on the Wolf Induction Cooktop, which, through its steam function, produced steam in just two minutes. This allows guests to enjoy the nutrients and flavors of each ingredient in this dish.
The second appetizer featured a Cassava Roesti with Cashew Pimiento. Cassava, a resilient crop, served as a perfect base for the roesti, which was cooked in the Wolf M Series Oven . Using the Dual VertiFlow™ convection system, the oven delivered even heat and precise temperature control without the need to flip the roesti. With the stone function, the roesti was cooked using the bake stone kit accessory, creating a brick-oven effect for a perfectly crisp crust—ideal for professionally quality pizza made at home. The cashew pimiento, a creamy, dairy-free spread, added a rich texture to the dish. Guests embraced a community culture by assembling their own appetizers and sharing their creations together with those whom they sat beside.
The guests were then ready for the main course: Fish en Papillote with Beet Carpaccio and Oyster Mushroom Coconut Adlai Risotto. The Wolf Induction Cooktop handles both high and gentle heat with ease, the high heat featured in the Boost mode, was used to sear the oyster mushrooms, intensifying its flavor and texture. The dish then required a consistent gentle, low heat for the risotto, using the True Simmer function, leaving it warm for a long time without burning. The Wolf M Series Oven, set to Convection Roast mode, created the perfect browning on the beets, adding a crisp, earthy contrast to the dish. The fish was specially cooked en papillote, a French technique where it is steamed inside parchment paper. With the help of the Wolf Convection Steam Oven, the fish locked in its moisture, maintained all its natural juices and absorbed the delicate flavors of the herbs and seasonings.
To conclude the afternoon, the chefs demonstrated how to make a decadent Spiced Bulkan Banana Cake with Kalingag Cashew Mousse. This dessert wasn’t just delicious—it was crafted with unique, wholesome ingredients like the naturally sweet Bulkan banana and the warm, earthy flavor of Kalingag bark, perfectly blended into a creamy, cashew-based mousse. Though indulgent, the dessert used healthy high-quality ingredients and was entirely oil-free. With the Wolf Convection Steam Oven, the cake achieved a crisp exterior while remaining creamy and moist inside, creating the ideal taste texture in every bite. The Convection Humid mode was used without producing steam and instead retaining the dish’s natural moisture. This is one of the many advanced functions the Convection Steam Oven features especially as a 3-in-1 appliance. Paired with freshly brewed coffee from the Wolf Coffee System, guests enjoyed a professional-quality beverage created with the touch of a button.
