Preparation
Prepare the Ingredients
Clean the mushrooms, then slice them thinly. Peel and finely chop the shallot. Keep the vegetable broth warm in a saucepan.
Sauté the Mushrooms
Heat the olive oil in a skillet. Add the mushrooms and sauté until golden brown for a few minutes. Lightly salt, pepper, and set aside.
Toast the Spelt
Melt half of the butter in a large saucepan. Add the shallot and sauté until translucent. Add the spelt and stir for two minutes.
Deglaze with White Wine
Pour in the dry white wine and let it evaporate almost completely, stirring regularly.
Cook Gradually
Add the hot broth ladle by ladle, waiting for the liquid to be almost absorbed before adding more. Continue cooking for about 35 minutes, until the spelt is tender but still slightly firm.
Add the Mushrooms
Incorporate the sautéed mushrooms and the liquid cream. Gently mix, then let cook for another two to three minutes.
Make the Risotto Creamy
Off the heat, add the parmesan and the remaining butter. Stir until a creamy texture is achieved. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Plate and Add the Truffle
Divide the risotto into deep plates. Add a few parsley leaves and thin slices of Burgundy truffle just before serving.
Plantin Chef’s tip(s)
Store the Burgundy truffle with the dry spelt in an airtight container for a few hours. The grains will absorb some of its aroma before cooking.
