The menu is ased on four archetypal [[food_scenarios]]. We designed the scenarios in the spring of 2014 originally for the [[Food Futures]] dinner for the Edinburgh science festival, that we co-hosted with Amanda McDonald Crowley. For Future Fictions we adapted the menu from a tasting dinner to finger-food for a reception, as well as adapted the dishes to a different region and season. |

- | Potato puree: Boil potatoes in the skin. Once soft, let cool enough so you don't burn your fingers, then peel the skin off.

In the mean time make the marinade: juice half a lemon, add soy sauce and olive oil, stir to combine. We used a smoked olive oil, that we smoked a few weeks earlier using the [[http://www.polyscienceculinary.com/the-smoking-gun.php|Smoking Gun]], but this is not absolutely necessary. A good quality extra virgin olive oil can be used as well. Brush the asparagus with the marinade and reserve in the fridge until needed. |
