Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris
Chef Christian Le Squer of Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, has shared the recipe for his signature dish, Spaghetti with Ham, Ceps and Black Truffle.
This comes as part of Four Seasons’ Masterdish initiative that spotlights the brand’s most popular delicacies from around the world, as voted by locals, international guests and social followers.
Ingredients for the recipe include: spaghetti (preferably homemade), Prince de Paris ham, parmesan cheese, truffle and cep mushrooms.
Start by tossing perfectly al dente noodles in butter and parmesan before laying them out side by side to form the walls of a rectangle. Glaze the ham, truffles and cep mushrooms together with jus and place them in the timbale.
Drizzle with truffled cream before painting the exterior with more jus, top with a thin parmesan crust and, finally, delicately adorn with gold leaf.
