The variety of food we have the pleasure of making, and then eating, in the Kirby and Holloway Kitchen is huge.
Chef Christian Costantino of Just Hooked in Fenwick Island is making two dishes packed with a huge variety of flavors.
We’re making Shichimi Encrusted Tuna over red colusari rice with spring onion ponzu, sugar snap peas, broccoli, gocgujang fennel kimchi, and sesame seeds and pan seared scallops with almond hummus, warm tomato salad, arugula, olive tapenade, and puffed chickpeas.
