Recipe: Scott Conant's Roasted Pumpkin Soup with Shrimp, Farro, and Leeks
This soulful pumpkin soup, which Scott Conant served at his recent Beard House dinner, bears the chef's signature, rustic-meets-refined style. All that's missing is a hunk of crusty bread to mop up the last drops.
On the Menu: Scott Conant
In 2008 Scott Conant, who rose to fame as the chef of Alto and L’Impero, made a triumphant return to the NYC dining scene with Scarpetta. Now, with the openings of Faustina and Scarpetta locations in Miami and Toronto, Conant has cemented his position as one of the most creative chefs cooking Italian food today.
Conant will bring his signature blend of rustic and refined cooking to the Beard House tomorrow night. Have a look at the menu below:
