PRESENTATION
In a small cup, pour in the boiling crème de Porcini and on top, place a small warm Foie Gras ravioli lightly dipped in a little reduced duck sauce seasoned with Balsamic vinegar then sprinkle over some chestnut shavings which you’ll have made by having them defrost and then grate finely. Serve immediately.
This creation may be accompanied by a small bread sticks on which you’ll have place a bite of Foie Gras sprinkled with chestnut bits (the chestnut bits left over after having made the strips). Make sure the cup is warm, the bread stick crunchy and the Foie Gras fresh so as to have different textures and temperature in the mouth when tasting.
