Partridge
Bone the partridge, cut it into big cubes and dress with sage, rosemary, a little thyme, marjoram, garlic, oil and bread crusts. Heat an iron frying pan until very hot and cook the partridge on one side, turning it only for 5 seconds at the end. The meat must be crispy, juicy and soft at the same time.

Potacchio
Gently fry all the ingredients, add plenty of wine and then stock. Cook for 2 hours. Filter, eliminate the fat and reduce.

White lemon purée
Peel the lemons well and cut them to obtain strips of pith only. Scald the pith three times in water, starting cold. Cook the blanched lemon in the syrup (made with water and sugar) for 25 minutes.

Syrup 1
Make a syrup and place it in a vacuum with the lemon to macerate for 24 hours.

Syrup 2
Make a sugar and water syrup. Place the macerated lemon in a Bimby, setting it to 80 °C, add the syrup, the warm cream, butter and lemon juice. Blend thoroughly. Take out of the Bimby and adjust with the grated rind.

Radicchio
Place in a vacuum pack. Cook at 90 °C for 3-4 minutes.

Mushroom sauce
Roast the softened mushrooms. Make a base with the butter and garlic, add the anchovies the black truffle and a little of the water used to cook the pasta.

Cook the cappelletti pasta, toss with the sauce, stir in the grated cheese and spoon onto the plates, adding a few drops of lemon purée.
