Indulge in Root to Shoot at Hornby’s Pavilion- ITC Grand Central
/Indulge in Root to Shoot at Hornby’s Pavilion- ITC Grand Central.
Hornby’s Pavilion at ITC Grand Central introduces unique dishes based on the concept of Root to
shoot where every part of ingredient is utilized to create a dish and nothing goes to waste from the
plant. These dishes shall be featured on the dinner buffet along with the communique specifically
developed for the programme.
The Root to Shoot explains the need of the nutrients from every bit of the vegetables. This exactly
means the usage of every part of the sapling produce. On the other hand, this also contributes to the
zero wastage of the vegetables like potato peels which are rich in fiber, Broccoli stalks which are rich
in calcium and iron, etc.
We are growing lots of perfectly edible food, then wasting most of it. Most disturbingly, the practice
is so ingrained in us that we do not even notice it. When it comes to fruit, vegetables, and herbs, we
desperately need to revise our perspective of edibility. So many edible parts of common plants are
needlessly discarded. It is easy to become focused on the primary growth of our plants at the
expense of everything else, but as growers and consumers, it only takes a small aperture in our
thinking to open up a world of culinary possibilities.
For this reason, we want to bring back root-to-shoot eating. A very simple initiative, eat more of it.
Every lovely leaf, precious peel, and the nutrient-packed stem has a wealth of valuable nutrients to
enjoy.
