Our Black Cow Heaven + Earth cocktails are a collection of drinks inspired by one of Mark HIX's favourite dishes, based upon himmel und erder, a popular German dish. Mark's version consists of wild boar and black pudding on a bed of crushed apples and potatoes. The silky black pudding is the heaven (himmel) upon the earth (erder) of crushed up apples and potatoes. When one ingredient comes from above and the other from below, the spirit then meets in the middle. The key philosophy is to try to have no more than three main ingredients; anymore and you lose the essence of what you’re creating and run the risk of muddying the flavours you are trying to enhance.
