Total time: 30 to 60 minutes
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Infusion time: a few hours
Difficulty: Average
Chef's Note
Italian carnaroli acquarello rice has amazing qualities: as it cooks, it loses a large amount of starch and subsequently absorbs more easily the flavors used in its preparation. It remains firm and non-sticky, even when it cools and dries.
Ingredients
For 6 servings
Rice
- 1 shallot
- 50 g (2 oz.) beef marrow
- 180 g (6 oz.) carnaroli acquarello rice*
- 200 ml (3/4 cup) dry white wine
- 20 g (2/3 oz.) duck fat
- 500 ml (2 cups) chicken broth
- 5 g (1 tsp.) squid ink
- 100 ml (6 Tbsp.) whipped cream
Parmesan emulsion
- 250 ml (1 cup) fish stock
- 250 ml (1 cup) liquid cream
- 200 g (7 oz.) grated Parmigiano Reggiano
- 50 ml (3 Tbsp.) whipped cream
- 30 g (2 Tbsp.) butter
Squid
- 720 g (1 lb. 9 oz.) squid (net weight)
- 70 g (3 oz.) duck fat
- 2 sprigs of parsley
- salt and Espelette chili
- 60 g (2 oz.) chorizo
- 12 pieces of sundried tomato
- 250 ml (1 cup) white stock
- 15 g (1 Tbsp.) butter
- 5 ml (1 tsp.) olive oil
Method
Rice
- Chop the shallot and cook it in a little duck fat in a sauté pan without browning.
- Add the rice and stir until pearly, then add enough chicken stock just to cover. Once it is absorbed, add more until the rice is cooked (about 20 minutes).
- Season with salt, pepper and Espelette chili; add the squid ink and whipped cream.
Parmesan emulsion
- Add the fish stock (which should be very light), liquid cream and Parmigiano Reggiano to a saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Infuse for several hours before straining.
Squid
- Season the squid. Sear in duck fat.
- Add the diced chorizo and the dried tomatoes, cut similarly. Finally add the parsley leaves.
- Remove the mixture from the pan, then deglaze with the lemon juice and white stock. Reduce a few moments, then swirl in the butter and olive oil.
