[#甜蜜食間 / Ying’s Sweet Time] Pierre Hermé Paris x Cedric Grolet - Noisette Citron (English below)
前幾天在百忙之中，為自己訂了一個 Pierre Hermé 與 Cédric Grolet 兩位主廚的四手聯彈作品——「Noisette Citron」（榛果－檸檬），明明幾乎連睡覺都沒時間了，卻還是出了門一趟，將這朵可愛的小花領回家。
說老實話，原本光是看造型與組成，我其實沒有太大興趣。對巴黎人來說，使用「biscuit macaron」（馬卡龍海綿蛋糕）當成底座、再加上內餡大概很新奇，但對台灣消費者來說，其實就是熟悉的「dacquoise」#達克瓦茲蛋糕；榛果與檸檬的搭配也不算特殊、小花造型也幾乎是 Cédric Grolet Opéra 店中商品的招牌。沒想到兩位主廚果然還是功力深厚，檸檬奶餡（crème citron）清新怡人、酸甜適中，其中的檸檬果凍（gélé citron）、糖漬檸檬皮（citron semi-confit）與檸檬果肉（chair de citron）非常爽口，搭配濃醇卻絲毫不厚重的榛果焦糖牛奶醬（confiture de lait à la noisette）與外表乾鬆、內裡稍稍黏牙的榛果馬卡龍海綿蛋糕（biscuit macaron à la noisette），像是在初秋閃耀的陽光，微涼、金黃，在穩重中還記憶著一抹夏季的酸爽。
這款蛋糕從 9/24 至 10/18 為止，是網路限定，可在 http://xn--pierreherm-k7a.com/ 與 Cedric-Grolet.com 上點選訂購、並在巴黎的兩個品牌營業點取貨，大小巴黎也有快遞的選項。

*****
Had a little treat for myself the other day. The “Noisette-Citron” created by Pierre Hermé and Cédric Grolet, two of the best pâtissiers in the world, is a lovely lady that has consoled me with her tenderness. The composition is nothing impressive with the “biscuit macaron à la noisette” (a hazelnut dacquoise biscuit in fact) as the base and crème citron (lemon cream) as the filling. Pastry and dessert connoisseurs wouldn’t be surprised as the Japanese dacquoise-based cakes are way too common there, but for the sweet tooth in Paris, this could be something interesting. However, the delicate match between hazelnut and lemon is outstanding. Every component is in its place and at its best. Nothing is too much or too little. A wonderful harmony that could only be achieved by a master (or in this case, two masters).
The “Noisette-Citron” is available from 24th September to 18th October online. Check http://xn--pierreherm-k7a.com/ and Cedric-Grolet.com for more information.
