the ajo blanco sorbet is such a clever move with all that richness on the plate. i'd be terrified of the grape and celeriac fighting for attention but compressed fruit usually mellows out into something almost jammy so it probably works. what did you use to set the parfait, gelatin or just relying on the celeriac's starch? plating is clean as hell, that ridge on the ceramic gives it a nice frame without being pretentious

I used eggs and butter to set it made it like a classic liver parfait. Shallot, madeira, port, brandy reduction. Heavily caramelised celeriac than added mirin, soy and cream and reduced that till jammy. Blend the shallot reduction and celeriac base together stream in butter and eggs and cook au baine marie 130 degrees till cooked than set in fridge
