フレンチ・カスレ 2022

クリスマスの伝統：フレンチ・カスレ

我が家のクリスマスの伝統になった特別な一皿を紹介します——フレンチ・カスレです。

毎年この日のために、鴨を丸ごと2羽注文します。骨を外す作業は愛の労働ですが、一分一秒の価値があります。骨は一年を通していろいろな料理に使う、濃厚で風味豊かな出汁になります。モモ肉はジューシーなコンフィに変身。骨からホロリと崩れるまでじっくり火を入れます。

でも主役は間違いなく胸肉です。1枚はクリスマスイブに味わい、もう1枚は日本のお正月料理のために取っておきます。日本人としてのルーツとフランス料理への愛が、美しく溶け合う瞬間です。

今年はクリスマスディナーをもう一段上へ——フレンチ・カスレに挑戦しました。この食べ応えのあるスロークック・キャセロールは、ホリデーシーズンの定番フランス料理です。白いんげん豆、ソーセージ、鴨を、濃厚で風味豊かなブロスの中で一緒に煮込んでいく。出来上がるのは、温かくて、心が安らいで、風味が弾ける一皿。家族や友人とホリデーを祝うのに完璧です。

「タテキ、美味しそうだけど、なんか複雑そう」——そう思いましたよね。大丈夫、ご安心を。全工程をガイドする詳しいレシピを用意しました。こちらからどうぞ。

今年、新しい伝統を始めてみませんか？フレンチ・カスレ、ぜひ試してみてください。手間をかける価値があると約束します。

Bon Appétit！

The Valentine's Protocol: Carbonara de Zucca
The Valentine's Protocol: Carbonara de Zucca

Valentine's Day. The rest of the world is fighting for overpriced reservations and rushed service. I am in the kitchen.

Inside my 4-course Valentine's protocol: a clean carrot potage, fresh sea bass, single-origin Peruvian chocolate, and a little bit of calculated rebellion—Carbonara de Zucca. Tradition meets experimentation. Respect the roots, bend the rules.

Velouté de Champignons

This isn't about finding the hottest new spot in town. This is about a ritual.

For my wife’s birthday, I step into the Tatekitchen to prepare a four-course experience designed to maintain "freshness" in our lives. We don't do commercial anniversaries; we do technique and high-grade ingredients.

Inside this year’s birthday protocol:

  • Antipasti: A French-style mushroom soup inspired by a summer trip to Helsinki.

  • Primo: Hand-made 100% semolina pappardelle with sushi-grade seafood and sea urchin.

  • Secondo: Denver steak seared in cast iron and finished in the oven, wrapped in caul fat.

  • Dolce: Siena Farm apples elevated by Madagascar vanilla bean vodka.

No dress code, no crowds—just the kids in their pajamas and the best food in Boston, served right at our table.

Baked Pesto Black Sea Bass
Baked Pesto Black Sea Bass

Valentine's Day. Four courses. Two kids helping in the kitchen.

This isn't about reservations or crowded restaurants. This is about showing up for my wife with white asparagus hollandaise, porcini mushroom risotto, pesto-crusted black sea bass, and chocolate panna cotta.

Lumi is my sous-chef. Lui hands Mom flowers. And I'm cooking every single course from scratch—because that's what she deserves.

Veal with Maitake Cream Sauce

This isn't just dinner. This is a statement. Four courses. Japanese fish market ingredients. My daughter Lumi as sous chef. Proper plating. Perfect timing.

Appetizer through dessert—each course planned to show up for the person who shows up for me every day. Kihada maguro is so beautiful, I could sell it for $200. Homemade pescatore with fresh shellfish. Veal with maitake cream sauce. Basque cheesecake to finish.

This is what love looks like in the Tatekitchen.
