Every meal at Boka begins with our bread and butter. House cultured butter with fennel pollen and sea salt, served with a warm porcini pretzel roll.⁠ ⁠ We have been making this butter from kilgusfarmstead cream with the same starter for 10 years now. It’s a labor of love that has become a right of passage for our cooks to learn. The process is time consuming and labor intensive, but the result is a depth and uniqueness of flavor that is specific to Boka. #boka #chicago #restaurant #butter #chef
