Writer Notes
I was inspired to cure the fillet by Fergus Henderson’s cookbook “Nostril To Tail Animated.” I added the rocket/arugula because I genuinely in discovering it irresistible, and the pale celeriac and dusky meat regarded as if it could per chance presumably well desire a shot of inexperienced. I substituted horseradish for the Dijon mustard, and sour cream for the creme fraiche, in his dressing. —KristenF
