STARTER: Corn Dogs
|
|
|
Corn dogs are one of America's most iconic fairground foods. The combination of a juicy hot dog wrapped in a crisp, golden cornmeal batter became popular at state fairs and amusement parks during the mid-20th century. This version uses kefir, which gives the batter a slight tang and helps create a light, tender coating.

Lavender Syrup
Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.

Smoked BBQ Shrimp
These smoked shrimp are incredibly juicy, lightly smoky, and coated in a tangy barbecue glaze with horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh lemon juice. They cook quickly over gentle indirect heat, making them an excellent appetizer or main course for backyard cookouts. Apple or alder wood adds a mild, sweet smoke that complements the delicate flavor of the shrimp without overpowering them.
