I know it sounds posh but it really isn't, I had a real french chef cook a Duck Confit with asparagus and one other thing that makes this the best ever: yellow cassava (Arracacia) puree. This shit, arracacia, is a root (kind of like cassava or potato) impossible to find. I think you can only get it in south america but it's soooooo good. You know when you mix 2 things and it's just magic? That's arracacia and aspargus. I ate the same dish 3 days in a row and almost cry when I had to come back. Still dream with it

Are you anywhere near San Jose or Martha's Vineyard?

You can get that yellow cassava in any supermarket here in Brazil. I like making soup with it.

I wonder why it's rare everywhere else, it's so much more delicious than potatoes and other types of cassava.
