- Blanch the sorrel in boiling water, refresh in ice water and then dehydrate for 24 hours at 50C.
- Blend the oil and dehydrated sorrel, allow to sit for 1 hour and then drip strain through muslin cloth to obtain a clean bright green sorrel oil.
- Place the buttermilk in Thermomix and season with salt and white pepper. Gently stir in the machine while smoking with applewood using a smoking gun.
- For the mushrooms place the oil and vinegar into a pot with the other ingredients and gently warm to approx. 65C.
- Remove from heat and allow to marinate for 30 minutes before serving.
- Thaw Akoya in fridge for 2hrs or 1hr on the benchtop before use. To shuck, pinch either side of the Akoya at the bottom to create a gap in the top of the shell. Using a blunt knife, insert the knife between the shell and the Akoya meat and gently separate. Repeat on the other shell to release the meat. Gently remove the green byssal thread by pulling sideways and the Akoya is ready to prepare. Clean and reserve the shells for serving.
