With “Aura & Anima”, Michelin-starred chefs Alexander Herrmann and Tobias Bätz present much more than a classic cookbook. This work is an inspiring journey into the world of modern, regional Michelin-starred cuisine and provides in-depth insights into the pioneering concept of their restaurant Aura and the Future Lab Anima in Wirsberg, Franconia.
The book focuses on the unique combination of local ties and innovation. Under the motto “boundless homeland”, it shows how regional products are refined into extraordinary gourmet creations through collaboration with over 80 farmers. The book impresses with its combination of specialist knowledge, detailed refinement techniques and the more than 50 sophisticated recipes that are used in the practice of Aura and Anima.
The chapters dealing with the symbiosis of sustainability and top cuisine are particularly exciting: Produce is processed in the Future Lab immediately after harvest to create creative dishes, regardless of the season. This innovative approach can be wonderfully transferred to modern gastronomy concepts and inspires chefs and restaurateurs alike.
The aesthetic staging of the dishes by photographers Pieter D’Hoop and Jesper Hilbig takes the quality of the book to another level. Each recipe is brought to life by detailed pictures, making cooking it a pleasure as well as a visual experience.
