Nasturtium shots

June 14, 2007

Nasturtium leaf and vodka pearl at the Edible City / de Eetbare Stad, NAi-M, Netherlands Architecture Institute - Maastricht - food and the built environment until June 22, 2007
A toast, “To a nasturtium leaf holding a pearl of vodka”

What a pretty shot. The nasturtium leaf tastes like horseradish and is a perfect pallet cleanser after the wodka di buffalo. And because it’s just a drop, you can keep on drinkin’.

  2. What’s not perfect is that this trick works with water, but not with alcohol because the surface tension of water is less, allowing it to bead up all pretty like. With vodka, especially ice cold buffalo vodka, it just smears out over the leaf unpretty like.

    The molecular gastronomists would create an alginate and fix this problem but then you’d have the ‘membrane’ to deal with.

  4. How about just taking a bite out of the nasturtium leaf and throwing down a shot of vodka?

    Prost!

  5. Good tip, Dad. I’m getting an image: sauntering around with a bottle of Zubrowka in hand, taking nips and tripping over the nasturtiums, falling on my face into pile of nasturtium inadvertently filling my mouth with leaf.

    Now that’s a shot.

    Or are you referring to the tequila method?
