The black Trumpet mushroom, which forms the ‘soil’ is so named for its distinctive shape when fresh. Scientifically these are known as Craterellus cornucopioides, also known as the Horn of Plenty.

Risotto According to a legend, a young glassblower apprentice from Flanders who used to use saffron as a pigment added it to a rice dish at a wedding feast in Milan, the first recipe identifiable as risotto dates from 1809. It included rice sautéed in butter, sausages, bone marrow, onions with hot broth with saffron gradually added.

Acquerello Rice

Italian for “watercolor”, Acquarello rice used in tonight’s risotto, is the first aged Carnaroli rice, developed by the Rondolino family. It is chosen by the best chefs worldwide for making risotto.
