Truffle Meets the Sea
Seafood and Spring Truffle tasting: an unexpected dialogue between the scent of the earth and the flavour of the sea
When the scent of truffle meets the sea
An evening dedicated to one of the most fascinating pairings in Italian cuisine: spring truffle and the sea. Intense earthy aromas blend with the delicacy of raw langoustine, seared scallop and pan-fried royal meagre in a journey designed to surprise at every course.
The wines are from Arnaldo Caprai, a winemaker based in Montefalco, Umbria: Grecante Colli Martani Grechetto DOC, Montefalco Bianco DOC and Puntabella Rosato IGT accompany the journey between sea and truffle, bringing a different but equally characterful territory to the table.
How the evening unfolds
The antipasti open the evening with three seafood and truffle bites: raw Mediterranean langoustine with mascarpone and spring truffle shavings, seared scallop with Jerusalem artichoke cream and truffle, and a crispy calamari nest with celeriac velouté. The first course brings fresh tagliolini with raw prawn tartare, tossed in mountain butter and spring truffle.
The main is a fillet of royal meagre with herb-infused fondant potatoes, a light lemon jus and truffle shavings. Dessert closes elegantly: a ricotta and Williams pear tart with acacia honey and a delicate final note of spring truffle.
Price: €69 per person, wines, water and coffee included.
