70 minutes
Truffle-scented risotto balls are an exquisite delicacy that embodies the sophistication of Spanish cuisine. Their history is rooted in the traditions of Mediterranean gastronomic art, where the combination of rich creamy risotto and delicate truffle aroma creates a true harmony of flavor. The crispy golden crust conceals a tender, velvety texture, while the melted parmesan inside adds depth and richness. These balls are perfect as an elegant appetizer at a formal dinner or as a unique dish for gourmets seeking to enjoy the richness of flavor nuances. Serve with a light wine sauce or fresh green leaves for the perfect balance of taste.
