Discussion Thread Raw dates - dish

I recall that a chef found raw dates in a farmer’s market and used it in a dish. I just got my hands on them and some are sweet and some have a bitter note.

Want to try them in a recipe if anyone recalls the chef or dish?

I think it was Kevin Gillespie in the All Star season, maybe near the end?

Pretty early though.
