Shareable desserts, mashups trend on 2014 dessert menus |
| 12-3-2014 | | | Nation's Restaurant News |
A look back at trends that dominated menus this year
This year, the desire to keep things interesting at the end of the meal had pastry chefs across the country getting creative. Here's a look back at some of the tastiest dessert trends that dominated menus this year and will likely continue into the new year.
Bourbon baked goods
With brown liquors "on fire," as chef<http://nrn.com/menu/chef-insights> Jason McClure of Sazerac in Seattle put it, this year more bourbon began showing up, not just at the bar, but in desserts as well.
McLure's contribution to the boozy trend is Banana Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce, a riff on the classic Bananas Foster, with sliced bread that is layered with bananas, pecans and a hard sauce made of whiskey, egg yolks and sugar. |

Whether or not you celebrate Hanukkah, it's hard to deny the appeal of crisp-fried potato latkes-which is why chef Jason McClure of Sazerac<http://www.sazeracrestaurant.com/> creates an entire latke menu for the month of December. Past favorites reflect Sazerac's quirky, Pan-American culinary style, including latke "sliders" with garlic aioli and caramelized onion on brioche buns; latkes with smoked salmon and crème fraîche; and an inventive take on the classic applesauce topping, with goat cheese and an apple and celery heart salad. |

Dining in Seattle: Sazerac |
| 11-26-2013 | | | The Daily Meal |
"...a killer restaurant with a dedicated and creative chef at the helm, Jason McClure, who has been at Sazerac since it opened in 1997. He was a link cook back then and worked his way up to executive chef. Those who know Sazerac call it McClure's baby. There are times when I find myself avoiding certain restaurants because they are housed inside a hotel. But it's time to let go of that dated notion because Sazerac is one restaurant that hotel guests and locals alike would be crazy to miss." |

"Complex dishes can involve long lists of ingredients and instructions, and even simple ones can get mind-numbingly repetitive - measure, pour, stir, repeat. A skill that will help you deal with both issues is simple concentration. 'To me, focus and tenacity are key to being a good cook,' says Jason McClure, chef of Sazerac, a restaurant in Seattle." |

"I delved into some blackened Idaho catfish. It was served with lemony mashed potatoes and some jalapeno-lime brown butter, and while it was tasty and not outrageously priced at $18, it had nothing on the Medjool dates served packed with goat cheese and wrapped in bacon - $7 during Sazerac's lengthy happy hour - or the roasted organic beets." |

"If you are looking for something a bit different, but do not wish to sacrifice flavor or service, Sazerac might be your place. The menu is not broken down into the familiar appetizers and entrees but rather lets you build your own meal based on how much you want of what. While the menu changes frequently, one thing is consistent: Every little thing is house-made. And from all reports, everyone better leave room for dessert." |
