XO Lobster.
A new preparation developed for the upcoming menu at IDAM by Alain Ducasse in Doha, where it will become part of a new lobster dish.
Built around intensity, reduction and aromatic depth, the base begins with dry lobster, tamarind paste and house lobster garum, creating a concentrated marine foundation with acidity and umami.
Galangal, lemongrass, shallots, garlic and ginger are gently sweated to build the aromatic structure, before the sauce is reduced and finished with ginger juice, cold lobster butter and kaffir lime leaves.
The result is a sauce shaped by contrast: shellfish intensity, fermented depth, citrus brightness and the precision of time.
A new layer in the evolution of the lobster dish, soon to appear on the menu.

Spring, translated through fire, acidity, texture, and memory.
Some of the dishes I have been working on for Echoes of Spring, the current menu at IDAM by Alain Ducasse in Doha.
Swiss chard, citron, pine nut
Cucumber and mint composition
Marinated carabineros, elderflower, avocado, coral condiment
Crispy chicken skin, tuna, caviar
Wild turbot, walnut and pine vinaigrette, Kristal caviar
Blue lobster on the embers, carrot, kumquat, curry oil
Seared saddle of venison, confit shallot, camel bacon cooking jus, blackcurrant
Vanilla delight
For me, spring is not only freshness.
It is tension, memory, acidity, smoke, texture, and the quiet return of light.
Each dish is a different reading of the season.

Every dish begins as a thought.
This one started on paper. A whole braised artichoke, opened leaf by leaf. The heart filled with artichoke garum, buckwheat and lemon gel.
From idea to artichoke, reimagined.

WHEN TIME BECOMES THE MOST CRITICAL INGREDIENT. ⏳
Following the foundation of Textures & Memories in Vol 01, I have descended deeper into the Alchemist’s vault. Vol 02 is coming this May, and it is defined by patience.
In this new collection, I am sharing the blueprints to dishes defined by 8-month ageing, precise fermentation, and fire.
Inside The Alchemist’s Codex Vol 02:
🔥 Wild Venison, Cured Beef Fat, and Cherrywood Smoke.
🍋 Amberjack aged for clarity with fermented Cima de Rapa.
🥕 Blue Lobster structured with fermented Carrot Juice and Kumquat Kosho.
🐟 The architecture of Crispy Chicken Skin and 8-month Aged Tuna Caviar.
I will be creating this volume accessible in two ways: Read it instantly as an interactive flipbook or download your copy directly from the recipes section at www.cheffabricerosso.com/recipes
