Alessio Brusadin – Figs "Brusadina" – Sweet Artisan Compotes – Avvenice

Alessio Brusadin – The Pantry of Alessio Brusadin

Hello Everyone! My name is Alessio Brusadin from Pordenone, Friuli, professional chef and globetrotter . After the hotel school, I worked for some years in Pordenone and once completed the National service, I left for London. There I worked in 5 star establishments such as the Hyde Park Hotel, The Halkin Hotel (under the guidance of Gualtiero Marchesi) and The Metropolitan Hotel, until I opened my own chain of Italian restaurants one of which, Grano in Kew Bridge, won the award for “Best Italian Restaurant of the Year” in 2000.

After fifteen years abroad, I returned home and settled in Caldaro, immersed in the beautiful hills of South Tyrol, where I opened with my partner Vito Leone the Restaurant Ritterhof . I than moved to the next valley where with the Corrà brothers I started this incredible adventure. The return to Italy was a rediscovery of wonderful flavors and products.

The aim is to source the best ingredients, capturing the essence of their flavours, add a bit of skills and creativity and, without adding any preservatives, make them available for the pleasure of you all.

The Brusadina

With the “Brusadine” we are going to complete the selection of our fruit preparations. We have created this line of products with fruit sugars only by replacing white cane sugar with solid rectified concentrated grape must. For cooking this time we leaned on a machine, which is unusual for us, but with the sous vide cooking we were able to remove a lot of water from the fruit while remaining at low temperatures, which allowed us to reach the percentage of 120 grams of fruit for 100 g of product. The result is a very fresh product, with only fruit sugars and with a delicious flavor. Obviously we could not avoid making some “Brusadin” flavors, so you will find three “classic” and three “special” ones. Try them you will not regret it!
