A whiskey pairing dish need not contain whiskey. Do not silently add chicory because it appears in the heading; the ingredient list says espresso syrup. The introduction supplies the pairing context, while the appendix supplies a preparation version. This is not a blinded demonstration of the pairing.
Appendix — scallops, chili-pecan dressing, chicory vinaigrette
The scallop course combines a salt-and-sugar cure, seared scallops, chili-pecan bread dressing, and an emulsified dressing titled Chicory Vinaigrette. The listed dressing uses espresso syrup and pecan oil; these subrecipes do not list bourbon.
