At the Art of Catering Food in New Orleans, March 2017, plenty of delicious ideas were served to dedicated chefs and culinary professionals in attendance. We at Catersource were so very excited to launch registration this week, we decided that the best way to convey it was through the great recipes attendees took away at our event this year.
First up: Chef Keith Lord, The Wild Thyme Co. and Chef Jason Sutton, Footers Catering offered the delicious Filipino Pork Lumpia with Pickled Green Papaya in their session, Flavors from the Asian Tropical Islands of the Pacific Rim. Enjoy!
A sample of this recipe was served to anyone with an Art of Catering Food conference pass.
