Essential Chefs Catering North Shore Boston MA

The Chef’s Plate is a weekly half-hour restaurant show that features local New England chefs every Saturday in September at 3:30 pm on WBINTV. The show’s host and director, Helen Ryba, recently featured the premiere Northshore caterers on the show – Essential Chefs Catering from Amesbury, MA.

The Chef’s Plate – A Taste of New England just finished an impromptu video featuring Essential Chefs which will air on September 12, 2015.  Among the dishes Chef Dan demonstrated in the video are “Pan Seared Sea Scallops with Late Summer Succotash”. He explains: “What we have for you today are pan-seared sea scallops with late summer succotash.  These are fresh locally grown vegetables featuring peppers, onions, fava beans, grilled corn, and heirloom cherry tomatoes. You can find these ingredients in your refrigerator, garden, farm stand, or local organic market – fresh out of the ground and right into your kitchen.  Serve these with chicken or seared sea scallops as we have demonstrated here.”

North Shore Magazine Grand Tasting 2015  – Essential Chefs Catering

Essential Chefs Catering had a great showing at the North Shore Magazine Grand Tasting 2015 in Salisbury, MA on March 28th and served up mouth-watering short ribs!

Their “Burnt Orange Braised Shortribs with Spring Parsnip Puree and Fresh Horseradish Gremolata” were the hit of the event with people lined up to taste this delicious dish well past the end of the event.  They also presented a colorful and fresh “Spring Baby Beets with Cara Cara Orange, Arugula, Vermont Goat Cheese, and Blood Orange Vinaigrette” which converted many to beet lovers. Many of the attendees raved that Essential Chefs Catering served “hands down the best food of the event.”  Congratulations!

~ Enjoy a traditional New England Clambake in your own backyard or on the beach. Lobster, clams, mussels, shrimp, chowder, bisque, etc.

“As kids growing up in Connecticut, we remember the classic New England clambake. We recall the simple days without cell phones and the internet. Our best memories were getting together with family and friends at the beach and enjoying an authentic clam bake and BBQ. The dads would dig the pit, fill it with charcoal, line it with seaweed, and cook the most incredible clam bake you ever tasted! We remember sandcastle contests, horseshoe games, sack races, and swimming during the day; and at night, there were the bonfires, s’mores, folk guitars, and singing…..just enjoying innocent and fun times as kids in the 1960’s.

We would like to pass on this time-honored tradition to you. Corn-filled grins, butter-coated chins, and laughter. Let Essential Chefs Catering create that traditional New England clambake experience for you while you enjoy the best lobster and BBQ you have ever had!” Chef John
