  • Instructions and Ingredients for Kabocha Squash Puree – Tasting Menu Design

    Posted by Louis Renaux on May 7, 2025 at 17:54

    Hi,

    I cannot find a video to explain how to do the Kabocha Squash Puree for the Tasting Menu Design course by Shaun Hergatt. The recipe book mentions

    500 g Kabocha squash
    25 g orange juice reduction,
    Star Anise
    Cinnamon stick
    Butter
    Xanthan gum

    But there’s no amounts for the last 4 ingredients? I guess the spices and butter can easily vary but the xanthan gum seems like too much / little would mess the texture a lot.

    I also do not know how the orange juice reduction is made, for example how reduced is it supposed to be?

    Finally, the video mentions baking the Kabocha but the recipe mentions sweating it with the spices? I expect you do both?

    Please let me know, thanks!
