Simple Salsa Recipe
The Obra Elements Kitchen Island line was directly inspired by the essential role our island at Project Este plays in hosting, cooking, and solving real-life storage needs. Built using modules fine-tuned with the help of world-renowned chefs, we believe your island should elevate your daily rituals. We're sharing a few quick recipes to inspire your next special gathering around your own Obra Elements Kitchen Island.
Este Beans
Soup, stew, chili, any name will do.
My father got me on the bean train years ago, and I haven’t looked back. We send each other photos and tips on our bean endeavors & I hope one day he adds his homemade hummus recipe to Obra’s collection.
Chef Kareem El-Ghayesh’s Oven Roasted Rack of Lamb
A signature KG BBQ recipe modified to be cooked at home, prepared by Chef Kareem El-Ghayesh on his custom Obra Kitchen Island.
Chef Evan LeRoy’s Smoked and Grilled Tri-Tip Beef & Wild Boar Tenderloin

Chanterelle Pasta
Our team had the opportunity to join Hannah and Duncan in the preparation of their new kitchen’s first dish and it was delicious. It was also an adventure – before the cooking began, we ventured to the forest to search for the recipe’s star ingredient: chanterelle mushrooms. Hannah led us swiftly through her and Duncan’s favorite foraging route in the dense forest near Mary's Peak in Philomath, Oregon.
