A fairy ingredient – Matsutake
Under the red pine trees above 3,000 meters sea level, there is a fairy ingredient – 松茸 (Matsutake; French calls it Champignon de pint). It’s an edible fungus with extremely high nutritional value and a very special aroma. It still can not be artificially cultivated. From “Charcoal Roasted Matsutake” to “Matsutake Chicken Soup” to “Matsutake Wine”… I made these dishes with the utmost devout ritual using this most precious ingredient!
