INGREDIENTS

For 6 people

1 kg of salsify
50 g of Lardo d’Arnad (bacon fat)
40 g of cubed Alba white truffle
Chopped chives
30 g of grated Grana Padano
20 g of smoked oil (obtained using a smoker)

 

METHOD

Peel and cut the salsify into fine strips (like spaghetti). Place the bacon fat in the chiller.
Cook the salsify spaghetti in a steam oven at 80 °C for about 10 minutes; they must be firm. Grate the bacon fat over the spaghetti, add the cubed truffle and chopped chives and the Grana Padano. Dress everything with the smoked oil.
