Creative cooking with alpine products
"We put Alpine products at the forefront, refining them with modern preparation and cooking techniques," says award-winning chef Andreas Döllerer, describing the style of the new Alpine cuisine. Cheese, whey, and organic yoghurt from mountain farms are transformed into surprising dishes. The freshwater fish are sourced from Sigi Schatteiner, who raises Bluntau char in the purest spring water of Bluntau Valley, specifically for Döllerer. There is also experimentation with game, beef, lamb, wild fruits, herbs, and mushrooms. Andreas Döllerer leads by example, inspiring many chefs to follow in his footsteps.
