Celebrating Rum: The New World's Spirit & its Cuisine with Chef Daisy Martinez & St. John Frizell
Astor Center
New York, NY
Rum has been part of Latino culture for 500 years -- its culture has strongly influenced the cuisines and flavors of the regions where they are produced. And today, it's hotter than ever, it's the spirit of choice for many of the nation's top chefs and mixologists.
Join chef Daisy Martinez of the Food Network and restaurateur/writer St. John Frizell of the recently opened Fort Defiance in Brooklyn, and embark on a rum-fueled cruise of the Latin Caribbean, as they explore the spirit of sugar cane in all its different styles, from the light, playful rums that made the Daiquiri and Mojito famous, to the dark sipping rums aged in oak barrels. Enjoy Chef Daisy's most acclaimed recipes like her avocado-stuffed crab salad, accompanied by classic and contemporary drinks, straight from the menus of the world's most exciting cocktail bars.
