A soft texture, care for the person receiving the meal.
A wide-rimmed deep plate with a 350 ml central basin for squash and white bean soup, vegetable purée or a sauced starter. The centre gathers food for a spoon; the rim gives it a generous setting.
OrienX takes inspiration from lightness and softness in shōjin cooking: consider the person eating, and choose suitable cooking, texture and seasoning. Jardin brings that attention to plant-based soups familiar to a European table, giving ordinary vegetables a thoughtful place in the meal.

Lightness and softness: care in the preparation of food
Sōtō Zen presents lightness and softness among the qualities of shōjin food, with consideration for the diner's health. Softness concerns appropriate cooking and texture; lightness concerns preparation and seasoning that do not weigh unnecessarily on the meal. The intention is to attend to the comfort of the person receiving the food. OrienX draws on this care for pulses and vegetables, choosing texture according to both the ingredient and the person eating.
A soft vegetable soup, from cooking to serving
Simmer cooked white beans, squash and carrots with water until tender; blend or retain soft pieces, then add a little olive oil and herbs. Beans give the soup body and contribute plant protein. With wholegrain bread and a vegetable dish, it becomes part of a plant-based meal. Jardin's central basin gathers a serving to enjoy with a spoon; the wide rim gives everyday ingredients a considered presentation. Use it alone for a starter or small soup, or alongside a main-meal bowl to give each course a clear place.

J’aime ce grand bord
Une purée de haricots, quelques carottes dessus, et c’est joli sans en faire beaucoup. Le grand bord change vraiment le rendu.

Le centre est petit
J’avais surtout regardé le diamètre, pas assez la taille du creux. Pour mes grandes portions de pâtes, c’est trop petit. Je l’utilise plutôt pour une entrée. Elle est belle quand même.

Même avec trois fois rien
Même avec juste quelques champignons, j’aime le résultat. Ça me donne envie de faire un petit effort pour dresser.
