Meet Pastry Chef Sarah Botcher (yes, wife of resident Butcher Peter Botcher). She’s in charge of the subtle touch regarding all things sweet here at Butcher & the Boar. Famous in house for her Grasshopper pies, she can be found crafting delicious desserts and innovating fresh bread delights here daily. So what makes her tick?
“…what I always strive for with what I make is it has to taste great. Flavor is always my thing. Sometimes people get a little more caught up in appearance. I like to keep the integrity of the flavors very much forward on the plate for the customer and for myself that’s to me, it’s always about how it tastes and that doesn’t mean rustic is an example of how I’d refer to what I do. Some people also think rustic could be also an excuse for clunky, but to me it’s just making something beautiful and tastes as good as it looks.”
A stickler for awesome flavor, she’s a fan of tasting everything she creates (it has to pass the taste test of course)!
If you see her around, don’t be a shy one. Say hi and tell her what desserts make you crazy!
