To Serve:
Prepare the surface of the Anti-Griddle by applying a thin film of cooking oil to the entire surface with a paper towel. Allow the surface to freeze completely. Dispense the brioche pancake batter onto the surface and "cook" like pancakes. Allow the batter to freeze just enough to flip the “pancake” and begin to freeze the opposite side. The goal is to completely freeze both sides of the “pancake” while the interior remains somewhat soft. Transfer the “pancake” to its serving dish work quickly, to top it with yuzu kosho curd and a generous serving of trout roe. Finish the dish with a few drop of lemon scented oil, micro dill and sea grass. Serve immediately.
