Just when you think you’ve heard of every ingredient imaginable,
you find out there is so much more to learn. The new
cookbook Boragó,
by Rodolfo Guzmán, the chef/owner of a Santiago, Chile restaurant,
has set the EYB record for most new ingredients added to the EYB
ingredient database, requiring 279 new items.
We have more than 44,000 ingredients listed in our database. The
previous book that needed the most new ingredients was Modernist Cuisine, with 144 added.
Borago’s new ingredients are akin to those added with Noma, being mostly Chilean indigenous
flora and fauna. Somewhat surprisingly, Noma only required
86 new ingredients. We are not sure how many recipes people will be
making from Boragó,
as it might be difficult to source items like these:
- cow horns – used as a serving vessel
- donkey milk and donkey cream
- Quisco parasites – red-flowering mistletoe that grows parasitically on Quisco cacti
- guanaco (also guanaco blood, guanaco sirloin, and guanaco skirt steaks) – a camelid animal native to South America, closely related to the llama
- And our indexer’s favorite, “half a mushroom aged by the wind” (indexed as dried mushrooms)
