Try this family recipe from the Emilia-Romagna region. It's a classic lasagne recipe with an Autumn twist.
The unique, robust flavor of the Pioppini is something to be celebrated. Also known as the Black Poplar mushroom, it has distinctive dark chocolate brown caps on long cream-colored stems. This is the perfect season to enjoy mushrooms at their best!
To make the most of this special ingredient, we would like to share with you this exquisite recipe. Creamy homemade béchamel sauce, tender pork cheek, and the intense flavour of Pioppini mushrooms are brought together by sheets of golden fresh pasta.
The sweetness of the shallots balances perfectly with the meltingly delicate guanciale (pork cheek), whilst the addition of aromatic thyme and (if possible) a hint of truffle, to add an unforgettable burst of flavour.
