As the winter holidays approach, there’s nothing more French than foie gras and porcini mushrooms. Here, chef Manon Santini (@manon_santini) combines the earthy flavors of porcini mushrooms, with rich, gooey cheese and fresh herbs for a truly delectable pizza.
This pizza uses a light, crispy dough, topped with Albufera sauce – a popular sauce in French cuisine, often paired with poultry – which is made of a port and cognac reduction, onions, shredded porcini, olive oil, butter, cream, chicken stock, and, of course, foie gras.
The pizza is then topped with tasty roasted porcini mushrooms, herbs, stracciatella, foie gras confit (foie gras seared in duck fat) and garlic flowers. It is the perfect pie for celebrating with friends, family and fellow gourmands!
