10:40 am
stylish and comes with warranties. how do you go may shift keep coming up with new and exciting ideas and find rare and exotic ingredients well some work with so-called food scouts over in the u.s. food scouts have been around for a while but it's a new profession here in germany. is one of the 1st. what does it take to be a food scout do you need to be armed to the teeth always on the hunt hardly much more important our sight smell and taste. those foods go outside surveillance grounds i look for extraordinary projects here in franconia my varia for us to use in our goal my restaurant alexander how much. your asphalt will sometimes travel several 100 kilometers a day to scout we 1st followed him to visit sebastian solomon who breed sturgeon's
10:41 am
and produces caviar. it was a bit but it would be more possible it was tasting a very special version of this delicacy whites to golden caviar from albino sturgeon's. the food scout was impressed. stars at 3 euros per gram albino caviar is about 3 times as expensive as black caviar. that it's pretty rare which is why i'm very happy it works so well by sebastian's and yet or and it means we can offer these regional caviar in a restaurant and that's very special to. us and next the food scott went is fast you need a miles farm and bombed back in southern germany it wasn't a restful visit to the pair dug up one metre long roots from the soil trying not to damage them with that we've got lots of juice in them and the more you damage them
10:42 am
the more juice comes out that's a sign of quality and if i want to follow that and pull them out but i rip them then i need to stop from the beginning again of the old and the only extraordinary specialties warrant this much work what the 2 men are after are licorice roots these are usually found in west asia and are used for making licorice. but how does licorice root fit into gourmet cooking your brought his freshly secured treasures to the restaurant to head chef to b.s. baits for tasting and quality assessment 1st the albino caviar. but. it doesn't have much flavor yet because it's so fresh. both agree that the sturgeon roast still needs to develop its full flavor so should be left a few more days. next the food scout and head chef brainstorm ideas for including
10:43 am
licorice on their menu. for this series holds its i can see the licorice featuring in some type of dessert there's time maybe combined with chocolate and fruit. and that's exactly how it was served licorice and chocolate were combined in a black truffle which was finally shaved onto a plum sorbet. the team in the gourmet restaurant has already won 2 michelin stars. there is also a fine keystroke kitchen which serves carefully composed dishes. your cost scouts and finds ingredients for both bistro and restaurant. exotic fruits tend to lose a lot of flavor on long haul flights so the food scout gets them locally at cline even palm house and. a fruit safari for star cuisine woman i'll be there an answer but today the hunch is for spice with some a. bird flu and we've got
10:44 am
a live in wild chile and down there is a type of china each a little there's a tie to the lower your cost vault isn't only here for the chili's he's also after their leaves. at 1st the head chef is baffled. this off muds with the greens are often just cut off without some mistake here with the chili foliage it makes sense to keep them with. well you say you again saw something no one else word here is good and the leaves chips gibby's chips they're just nicely part of by c 2 digits really chips the leaves are tossed in temper a batter and then deep fried in hot oil. next to b.s. baits coats the green chips with a fiery chili paste. that
10:45 am
is it spicy. that suburb of spicy but sensational you've really come up with something special here. caviar from the albino sturgeon licorice roots from a farm in bam back and spicy chips made from chile leaps. and with that food scout you're of asphalt heads off on a new journey there's still a lot more to discover. designing and building churches has probably always been one of the most challenging faiths in architecture to hopefully is from france and he's a devoted churchgoer of those not so much because he's religious he visits them as a traveling photographer and he's always on the lookout for new subjects. for me it's definitely the architecture and the power of this modern architecture
10:46 am
through the 20th century ringback. they always have a central point of view in that the churches are always empty. so my goal is really just to create a sort of. feeling so that people can you know immerse themselves in the architecture. seeks out modern churches around the world for his photo series sacred spaces. like notre dame to try in paris it's original it's different from anything you could have seen and also it has this visual impact with the difference of materials with you know the wood to steal the lighting is very very interesting and in presenting the. you know the workers of that era so it also has
10:47 am
a very emotional. impact i think on the whole neighborhood. this perspective presents the architecture in the best possible light. and yeah you see in this one what's really beautiful is that the pillars are you know all aligned so you really want them to be you know popping out of the photo so in that way you know the architecture speaks for itself there is no destructions it's always the same the same angle and when you put them all you know next to each other they're all very different but you get a cohesive. feeling of you know all the different churches. people portray lives in paris he discovered his passion for modern churches 4 years ago since then he's photographed 36 of them in europe and asia. the most difficult part is finding them. because. when you start the series
10:48 am
basically you start from 0 and there is a few that are kind of famous but most of them are not so it's it's mainly finding all the all the churches in the remote spaces so you would maybe never pass by and you would actually not imagine what this is like maybe offices but not really. maybe a museum what this is notre dumb to lash to learn young a cube shaped church on the outskirts of paris what the church is can very very radically and i think the reinterpreted what a church is. with the architecture because the church is fairly basic and it's huge you know there's. a central park that's always there and then basically people sit around it. to pose approach is always the same. same he looks around chooses a point of view and takes
10:49 am
a single shot. that's it. at home he makes only minor corrections to the image most of the work is already done to mow is actually an interior designer and for him photography is just a hobby yet his photo series have attracted attention around the globe. like his project sleeping venice from 2018 he was able to capture almost surreal looking images of the city on the mission lagoon. venice without the matting crowds. since 2015 probably has also been taking pictures of libraries around the world this photo series is his most famous work to date. it's a specific space that everybody understand you know libraries are churches everybody's been there at least once in their lives. and they were made for
10:50 am
a specific reason and so what i really find interesting how these architects have you know created. you know these different buildings but with the say the same purpose. one of his favorite churches is notre dame do not sell it in paris he feels that the round concrete structure emanates a sense of tranquility. i guess i'm a pretty cool guy i mean i like it when i'm alone in these places because you actually get to experience the architecture in a very different way you know. it's just for you it seems like it's been built just for you when you're there and you can witness it for you however you perceive it. and then in the photos people can imagine themselves in in the picture. for his photo series of sacred spaces
10:51 am
a testament to faith in the power of modern architecture. if you're visiting the netherlands in the next weeks you may also want to stop by the city saval that's where europe's biggest ice sculpture festival is taking place until the 1st of much artists from around the world cost $500.00 tons of ice and snow into beautiful scotus which takes us on a journey through time. from dinosaurs to play a part. to the vikings. and the industrial revolution. they see as ice sculpture festival in the dutch town of let's face it as travel through time people flock to the festival from all over to marvel at the statues which are made of around $550.00 tons of snow and ice.
10:52 am
some build up against the cold they take photos of the sculptures and enjoy the magical atmosphere. cover of a very pretty one coming from the tropics and to see this under their roof i'm having this ice sculpture a solution might be from the sun i do think it was last year called her to take photographs. put on mark knopfler. it's amazing if it's a big goal because. it's. a mere prefer star i'm sure to. go for pictures. some 40 ice carvers from all over the world descended on smaller they spent 2 weeks carving the sculptures out of ice and snow here spend more of its from germany he is working on a statue of shaka zulu one of the most influential zulu monarchs. if you know. to make details is a good enjoyable part because if you do everything right you see everything grow
10:53 am
through good or is. striving for artistic perfection is not the only challenge the compas face the temperature inside the hole is about minus 10 degrees celsius so it's hard to stay warm the blocks of ice are up to 2 metres tall and it's a tough job to sculpt them using sharp chisels and chainsaws. it's hard to go work at the end of the day everybody if you have the shoulder or arm. the chain and there are certain amount of danger a good weapon or. one of my friends drive your driver injured you've broken down. most of the carvers are professional artists they travel the world to stump's ice and snow but they also work as traditional stone sculptures graffiti artists. the ice sculpture festival is always a highlight of the year. this is more of a fun thing to do coming to europe and and working on
10:54 am
a big scale that you don't get to do the this kind of thing normally go quickly. once the carvers hard work is completed visitors can enjoy the giant works of art complemented by colorful lights and atmospheric music. this year's theme a journey through time allows visitors to see important historical figures and witness pivotal moments in history up close. just like previous years we're always looking for a theme that's familiar all around the world for all ages and with all these stories throughout the time it's a perfect fit. your hands might get cold but the dutch ice sculpture festival is definitely a heartwarming event. just about
