I am fortunate enough to live where Biota Dining is. This young Australian chef is an amazing talent and produces the most extraordinarily tasty, interesting, sound, locally sourced food I have ever eaten. I would eat there every day if I could. This charcoal salad is just one of the inventive approaches he has with ingredients. He grows all his own salads, many fruit and vegetables, sources local meats, wines, cheeses, makes his own bread and even infuses his own non alcoholic drinks to go with his menu. If you love food, are inspired by food, believe food should reflect its environment and should be sustainable, then this will not disappoint you. The comments below are utterly irrelevant and show complete ignorance.

It's not charcoal, it's ash, as Jaime also says. Charcoal is what you use to light up your BBQ, and is primarily made of burned wood. Ash is simply the name used for the non-watery residue, that remains after burning, which primarily consists of metal salts. In this case, it would simply be called 'ash from salad leaves'. Restaurants here in Denmark have been using ash as a spice, for a few years now, ever since the world famous danish restaurant Noma, started doing it. It's always fun to see something that's originated from your own country, catch on to others =)

Yees! I completely agree with this. I went to an Italian place called tipo 00 in the city (in Melbourne) and ordered a calamari dish. I have hardly been exposed to food in higher end resturants so I don't know what I was expecting. When the dish came, I saw these chunks of burnt pieces in the salad. It was charcoaled capsicum. It was amazing. You couldn't stop eating them (until they finally ran out ofcourse.

I knew someone who actually burned a green salad. She set it on the stove in a plastic bowl, then turned on a burner to preheat a pan. Trouble was she turned on the wrong burner. We didn't try to eat it, though. Leave that to the Aussies. :)

If you think this is a joke, you have definitely not tasted charcoal butter or any other charcoal based dish before. Using charred food in ways like this tastes absolutely amazing, dont talk shit about it until you actually try it

I always feel that I'm very openminded about food. I genuinly want to know how weird foods like balut or casu marzu taste. However I think I found my limit. I just do not understand how charcoal can be a food.

As they say, presentation is everything, and people eat with their eyes first. Well, after eating this dish with my eyes, I can tell you it was disgusting. Thankfully I didn't have to taste it with my mouth too.

Nothing that we eat on the planet is black, hei. You forgot the black olives and caviar, for instance. But it is really counterintuitive to eat that. Besides it has no nutritional value whatsoever. Weird.

You can get these Malaysian brand of noodles in the UK now called Everprosper and they have a variety of organic wheat noodles with binchotan Japanese charcoal that are delicious!

I wonder if it tastes burned and bitter. Because I dun really like having my meat and bread almost black etc. I dun like the taste of burned stuff, also not from the grill: /
