How to Make It
-
For Peach Sauce
- Sauté peach chunks in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat uncovered until they begin to break down, about 5 minutes. Add butter, maple syrup, and orange zest. Add orange juice. Slowly reduce until sauce forms a syrup consistency. Set aside. For Waffle
- Preheat your waffle iron. Sift the flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, sugar, and salt and set aside. Beat the egg yolks until they are pale yellow; then add the buttermilk, foie fat, and butter. Combine with the dry ingredients. Beat the egg whites until stiff. Fold the whites into the batter. Cook in your waffle iron to desired doneness. For Farm Egg
- Gently sauté farm eggs over low heat until sunny-side up. To Complete
- Top each finished Waffle with Peach Sauce and foie gras. Add one Farm Egg to each plate. Garnish finished plate and seared foie gras with Maldon salt flakes and Satsuma tangerine slices. Serve immediately.
