This one’s all about texture and tone. A silky, vegan panna cotta infused with sweet spring peas, plated up with crisp, vibrant vegetables— think mushrooms, asparagus, maybe a tender herb or two. It’s a salad, yes—but not the leafy kind. More like a composed ode to spring: creamy, clean, and green in every bite.
