Isn’t this the biggest eggplant you have ever seen??
Another week in 105 Academy has gone by… so what happened the past few days? we did a lot of fermenting : we made nut cheese, coconut yogurt and kefir( blah!). We also made tofu, eggplant bacon, coconut bacon,granola, cookies, gorgeous savory & sweet crepes (which I accidently deleted the pictures from my camera 
).There were a lot more things this week, but I have the memory span of a goldfish so I can’t really recollect every single thing we created…
I’m in heaven : a mountain of cracked young coconuts, and 15L of coconut water neatly collected in a bucket…
Raw chocolate chip cookies, with handmade chocolate chips, patiently piped by hand, one-by one…At first bite, I didn’t like these cookies, but they grew on me. After eating a box of them I decided I really liked them!
A chocolate torte with ginger cream and raspberry coulis…I practiced my plating skills…still have a long way to go, but practice makes perfect!
These were “crab cakes” with a slaw and delicious sweet corn ragout! Food styling by Debbie Glassberg

Next week, starting tomorrow morning, will be all about creating our final graduation menu , so there will be a lot of recipe testing and kitchen disasters! Stay tuned.
Everything looks amazing! Wish I was there. Can’t wait to see what your menu will be.
YUMMMM
That is a lot of coconuts. I remember opening up a lot of coconut while I was there too! Fun times

OMG, that chocolate torte looks amazing (it all does, but that one the most). I love chocolate and ginger, and chocolate and raspberry, but never tried them all together.
I find that coulis and such is very hard to plate so that it looks nice and not like someone just dirtied the plate… I think you did a nice job. If anything could have been improved, the raspberry could have been placed so that we’d see more than the hole. :->
that chocolate torte looks so good!!!!!!!
beautiful photos!

Congratulations and, although I’m not a pure vegan, I’m stuck with it.

All of the dishes look amazing! I love the look of that brownie, and the hand piped chocolate chips are amazingly cute. Eggplant and coconut bacon also both sound wonderful.
