The weekend’s panisse special is here until we run out! Golden chickpea panisse that’s crispy on the outside, pillowy soft inside, and aggressively chillin’ over rich, cheesy Mornay sauce. We hit it with a spicy green drizzle of Zoug for heat, with slices of pickled Fresnos for tang, then top it off with fresh cilantro, parsley, and mint.
Panisse is a chickpea flour fritter from Provence, especially associated with Marseille. It’s kinda like in the same context as a hash brown or polenta fry for reference. The batter’s basically chickpea flour, water, and olive oil cooked down into a thick porridge, then chilled until firm, sliced, and fried. Mornay is a classic French béchamel sauce enriched with melted cheese. Zhoug is a spicy, herbaceous Yemeni condiment made from blended hot green chiles, herbs, garlic, and warm spices.
Together, this one’s crunchy, creamy, spicy, and herbalicious. Basically everything you need to forget about whatever kinda week you’re having now that we’re back in your life. Don’t miss it!
