Steps for Matteo Giua 's snacked cuttlefish
- Prepare the orange confit: peel and julienne the orange. In a saucepan, heat the sugar with 1 l of water. When the water comes to the boil, remove the pan from the heat and add the julienned orange. Chill for 1 h.
- Make the parsley remoulade condiment: blanch the parsley, then plunge it into iced water to stop the cooking process. In a bowl, combine the two egg yolks, whole egg, peanut oil, cider vinegar, pinch of salt and mustard. Blend to a solid mayonnaise. Add the hard-boiled eggs (cold) to this mayonnaise, along with the parsley, and blend until you have a smooth remoulade. Set aside in a cool place.
- Prepare the guanciale: remove the fat from the guanciale and set aside. Cut the guanciale into 2 cm pieces and brown in a saucepan until crisp. Set aside.
- Prepare the cockles: heat a pan with the olive oil and garlic, then add the cockles and white wine. Cover the pan and wait for the cockles to open, then remove the shells. Set aside.
- Cook the cuttlefish: snacke the cuttlefish in the guanciale fat (previously set aside). Season with salt.
- Garnish: brown the guanciale and cockles in a sauté pan, then assemble the dish by arranging the remoulade-persil condiment first, followed by the crunchy guanciale and cockles, the snacked cuttlefish and, finally, the candied orange on top. Add olive oil and a pinch of fleur de sel. Garnish with a few mesclun leaves.
