Instructions

Dive into the sublime world of umami with this pre-dinner cocktail, the Twilight Umami Serenade. It's built around the robust yet smooth character of tequila reposado, enhanced by a home-infused umami essence and served elegantly in a chilled martini glass, setting the tone for an evening of culinary delights. Ingredients: - 2 oz Tequila Reposado - 1/2 oz Dry Vermouth - 1/2 oz Umami Infusion (homemade mushroom-infused sherry) - 1/4 oz Agave Nectar - 2 dashes Orange Bitters - Garnish: Lemon twist and a skewered marinated mushroom Instructions for Umami Infusion: - Take a cup of dry sherry and infuse it with dried shiitake mushrooms. - Add about 1 ounce of dried mushrooms to the sherry. - Allow the mixture to sit in a cool, dark place for 48 hours, stirring occasionally. - Strain out the mushrooms, bottle the infused sherry, and refrigerate for use. Cocktail Preparation: 1. Start by chilling a martini glass in the freezer. 2. In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the tequila reposado, dry vermouth, umami infusion, agave nectar, and orange bitters. 3. Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds, ensuring the cocktail is well-chilled and the flavors marry together. 4. Strain the mixture into the chilled martini glass. 5. Express the essential oils of a lemon twist over the drink and place it in the glass. 6. Garnish with a skewered marinated mushroom for an additional umami kick. 7. Serve immediately and watch as the complex flavors set a perfect stage for the evening's culinary adventure. The Twilight Umami Serenade promises to awaken the palate with its savory undertones and smooth finish, a sophisticated ode to the often-underrated fifth taste, umami.
