Porcini carpaccio is a super delicious and not least easy starter to make. Carpaccio traditionally consists of thinly sliced raw meat or fish and is served with rocket, parmesan cheese, pine nuts and sometimes pesto. This carpaccio is therefore a great vegetarian alternative with raw, fresh porcini mushrooms, rocket and a pesto dressing.
Porcini mushrooms are one of the only mushrooms that can be eaten raw. They taste mild with a slightly nutty flavour. However, it is important to use only young and fresh porcini mushrooms that are not infested with worms or similar.
Enjoy this super tasty appetizer with some bread.
