Ensalada Estilo Louie con Palmito Fresco

 
 
 

Esta ensalada vegana estilo Louie es increíblemente refrescante. Los chefs Tal Ronnen y Scot Jones del mundialmente famoso Crossroads Kitchen en West Hollywood perfeccionaron esta técnica de cazar nuestros corazones frescos con kombu (algas comestibles) y condimentos Old Bay para darles esa textura tierna y carnosa, y ese sabor fresco del océano. Tal y Scot separan y trituran los corazones escalfados con carne para crear esta increíble ensalada vegana estilo Louie.
