Chef Michael and Karl Hutterer

Craig Case, host of The Inn Crowd, and chef Michael Hutchings welcomes Karl Hutterer to the kitchen at the Crossroads Estate situated in the rustic Santa Ynez Valley. Karl is the former director of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and now is Director Emeritus.

I planned a menu of Austrian classics to honor Karls heritage. The first course features an Austrian potato soup with root vegetables and a rich beef broth base. The main course highlighted Weiner Schnitzel with braised cabbage and apples. Dessert hails from the city of Salzburg, the famous Salberger Knockerl that echoes the three mountains around Salzburg.
