Preparations

1. Peel the pears and cut into 5mm cubes.

2. Peel the shallot and cut into brunoise. Heat in a frying pan with olive oil.

Sweat the shallot, add the rice and stir regularly.

3. Wait for the rice to become transparent and then stir in the chicken stock in small doses

using a ladle. Wait every time the rice mass absorbs the broth. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Stir all the time of cooking. After 8 minutes, add the diced pear, gorgonzola and chopped parsley

and cook for another 8 minutes. The risotto should be very creamy, but it should remain al dente at the end of cooking.

5. Stir in Parmesan and mascarpone and mix vigorously to make the dish as creamy as possible.

6. Place in the middle of the plate and decorate with a few diced pear. Finish with a net

raw olive oil on the risotto and a shot of pepper mill.
