We’re still covering our visit on the January Christening Cruise, which we like to refer to as our Disney Dream Dine Around! And today I’ve got a recipe from the Disney Dream to share with adventurous chefs!
Where to Find It
At Remy aboard the Disney Dream, diners may want to enjoy this appetizer from the tasting or a la carte menu. In this French-inspired restaurant, at least you can pronounce the name of this selection! 😉
Remy is located on Deck 12 and is an adults-only restaurant that surpasses the luxury of the adjacent Palo. This is one of the finest dining experiences at sea!
How to Make It
OK, so this recipe is probably a bit too involved for me to try, but some of you adventurous chefs out there should be able to find the substitutes and give it a go! Let us know how it works out!
Smoked Bison with Melted Fennel and Leeks, Hearts of Palm Salad and Blood Orange-Tangerine Vinaigrette
Serves 8 as an appetizer
Bison Ingredients
1 pound buffalo tenderloin
3 tablespoons fennel pollen

2. In sauté pan over high heat, sear meat until golden brown.
3. Bake at 400°F for 5 minutes or until medium rare. Carve evenly into 24 slices.

1 pound fennel, thinly sliced, bulb only
1/4 cup olive oil
1 pound leeks, white part only, thinly sliced
1 cup white wine

For the fennel and leeks:
1. In a sauté pan over medium heat, sauté fennel in oil olive for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add leeks and sauté until juices are released, about 5 minutes. Stir in wine to deglaze the pan; reduce until liquid has been absorbed. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar.
