Today we offer you a delicious recipe created for us by the restaurant „Botero“ in Crema: the „Scialatielli with red mullet sauce, mussels, pumpkin flowers and saffron“, in combination with our Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Dry Drusian.

Let’s see together the ingredients and steps necessary for the creation of this first course.

Ingredients for 4 people:

300 gr of Scialatielli

500 gr of mussels

8 red mullet

12 pumpkin flowers

2 cloves of garlic

1 glass of white wine

1 bunch of parsley

1 sachet of saffron

PROCEDURE:

Clean the mussels and open them in a saucepan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and two cloves of garlic over high heat.

Deglaze with white wine and, covering with a lid, finish cooking for a few minutes.

Fillete the mullets, shell the mussels and strain their cooking liquid.

In a non-stick pan, cook the pumpkin flowers for a few minutes, add the mullet fillets, mussel water and saffron. Finally, add the shelled mussels and chopped parsley.
