Yes, it`s the sort of dish you dream of, Risotto with Oysters and Spumante wine (Italian version of Champagne)!! Mamma mia What Bliss!!!!!!!! And what , I can hear you say,were you and Nick celebrating ,well the answer is NIENTE !(NOTHING!) We were just making the most of a wonderful opportunity
So let’s explain how things went …Nick was recently taking pictures for a winery where they had found and are still finding the shells of marine oysters in the soil where the vineyards now grow ….. Well he had the wonderful idea of using some fresh oysters in the photos. So once the job was done …… with great sadness (hehe….) in the name of waste not want not and helping out we made a supreme effort, and we ate the oysters! Some we had straight from the shell, as an aperitif (divine), and the rest I used in the risotto. Honestly, if you ever have oysters at home YOU MUST match them with a bottle of good Spumante …. Well my dear friends ,what a fantastic evening that was, very yummy!
So if anyone needs to have pictures taken of things such as: lobsters, black truffles, caviar etc etc please let us know ….. I’m sure Nick will help you out and find the time to take some very good pictures, but I`m afraid I `m unable to guarantee that the produce will be returned to you!
