  1. I would’ve liked to see the risotto in a shallower dish, and tapped down to be more level. The mushrooms do look a bit dry, as well, but I thoroughly appreciate foregoing the overplayed scoring on the top. Other than that, looks good and vibrant.

    Confit king trumpets

    Oil, salt, garlic, charred green onion, rosemary and thyme

    250 degree F oven for 20-30 min (depending on size of cut, just check for tenderness)

    Pull them, let them cool and sear in a pan for pickup. Part of a recipe I created a few years ago for a vegan dish on a menu

    Personally I don’t mind the presentation of this, as it is quite rustic and looks great for a cold rainy day. Aside from the dry mushrooms, which that recipe will fix

  3. OP – be honest, did you over cook the scallops? That’s a pretty hard and deep sear imo

    I like what you’re going for. It looks fresh and flavorful.

    I can’t stress enough that risotto isn’t a foodd that should be piling up like potatoes. They’re over-reduced.

    Oh how fun. Past 2 summers have been dry here and shrooms have been slim Pickens. Love your combos and your plating is not bad. It’s a fancy comfort food style. Maybe would be even more over the top with less rice all perfectly molded and maybe the components organized differently, I hope you did something with the rest of the shroom. Have fun.

    Nice but you are opening yourself up to some upset customers looking for scallops. Had it happen to me a few years ago with a lobster mushroom risotto
