Smoked risotto with liquorice and herring – Gordon Ramsay’s version

My smoked risotto it will surprise you, with the smoky notes of Carnaroli and herring sweetened and softened by liquorice powder and wild fennel.

This smoked risotto was born in a completely random way, as often happens in my kitchen. Originally it was a creamy pumpkin risotto with liquorice and raw red prawns. A variation of one of the recipes you can find on Spices bookwhich I created in collaboration with Il Cucchiaio d’Argento.

But then I was a bit saturated with pumpkin and the fresh prawns I had found didn’t convince me. Plus I had this in my hands smoked carnaroli rice and I wanted to create a story of smoky sensations and evocations… This is why I chose to leave a mark on the woody and smoky note, using herring fillets and balancing their flavor with liquorice powder.

A fish risotto without cheese yes, but with lots of butter and the fresh note of wild fennel.

The herring smorrebrod recipe – Gordon Ramsay’s version

Smorrebrods, are typical Danish open sandwiches, with a base of rye bread, butter and delicious topping. Today I'll let you taste my version with herring.

Not only in Denmark: we find Smorrebrods in others as well Scandinavian countries, offered at all levels, from starred restaurants to street food.

They can be customized in many ways, playing with main ingredients and toppings, but they cannot be missing: a base of rye bread and butter to spread.

Eel, herring, salmon, shrimp and other fish, more or less smoked or dried, are generally the protagonists, but there are also meat and vegetarian versions. Eggs, radishes and red onion are a must among the toppings. dill, chives and beets.

The classic Danish smorrebrod with herring is called Sol over Gudhjem and takes its name from Gudhjem, the picturesque fishing village on the island of Bornholm. It is prepared with a base of rye bread, soft butter, smoked herring, radishes, raw yolk, dill, onion and chives.

I wanted to customize it a bit by replacing the raw yolk with a boiled egg, marinated in beetroot, another ingredient used in Danish open sandwiches.

As for the fish, I chose the delicately smoked herring fillets from Vici.

I added the crunchy part instead with the sliced radishes and decorated with mixed leaves and dill.

When it was time to serve, I dressed the salad with oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper and the sliced spring onion. I cut the herring into slices and the radishes into slices.
