timbale with shoots of bramble and red rose petals 
Another day laboratory to test a different version of the usual rice with sprouts bush ... one of those situations where you know where to start, but not where you finish. In reality it all started yesterday, during a walk in the woods with my dad to pick the Rupoli, or rather wild hops. We have filled a bag, then came to my mind, as long the edge of the path a bit stuck 'by all the parties to pick up the seeds of rovi.Era a while' to process the fact that the seeds of this plant so tricky yet very generous, I teased the imagination ... and then the bush brings a touch of romantic ... it is the plant from which stem roses .... So I thought I was born and already in my mind, the idea ... the .... the rose bush ... I have to try. ... When she arrived home, tired but happy and proud of my harvest, I opened the bag of the bramble shoots and immediately smell similar to that of lemon peel mixed with green apple, but more gradient, I hit my nose and it spread into the room ... suggesting to use the other ingredients: ginger and lemon juice to mix to give a fresh and colorful note to the pie and so ... I gave the green light to work with the assessors volunteers ready to give a disinterested opinion (my son and my parents).
Ingredients 400g of Arborio rice (I think blends better)
two handfuls of sprouts, blackberries stewed onion
extra virgin olive oil 2 red roses
least a teaspoon
ginger spicy provolone cheese
1 egg a little 'butter breadcrumbs
lemon peel salt and pepper to taste
First of all I cleaned the seeds, choosing only the tips and leaves without thorns and I've washed them accuratamente.Poi I made a stew with fried onions, tossing them into the pan still dripping water to cook well and then incoperchiandoli.
In the meantime, I boiled the rice in salted water along with rose petals ... never done such a thing ... but the scent of roses the first of May is very penetrating and hear ... before the petals floating in the water a bit ', then down, releasing their aroma to the rice grains that run in the pot ... for me, this is already a spell ....
.... buds seem cooked, so grind them with a "gadgets" that I bought from Tuppeware ... because the mixer and it can attack too ; suffer texture and sapore.Ottengo just a grind, not too tiny and I piace.Scolo the rice, it amalgamated with the shredded sprouts and a bit of butter ... "And now with that flavor?. .. I leverage their vague hint of lemon or risk raffozzarlo too?? Provo, as it goes ... So in a saucer
..."" I tasted a spoonful of rice with a pinch of ginger .... buonoooo! And we go .... avanti.Aggiungo an egg, parmesan, provolone, salt, pepper and mix everything well, well ...
... Now comes the fun ...- I also have to renew the molds that I bought at Lidl ... I have well-buttered and sprinkled with bread crumbs, and put the first layer of rice that I covered with rose petals
un altro strato di riso....e uno di formaggi
un altro strato ancora di riso per chiudere il timballo,pigiando bene in modo che al momento di sfornare risulti ben compatto
...e via nel forno a 180° per 20 minuti circa(dipende dal forno,il mio brucia tutto) ed ecco il momento di girare i timballini..."4 in una volta..sicuramente si sfaranno.....butterò tutto...." e invece....
ho guarnito con le scorzette di limone e la più bella rosa del mio giardino tutta per me...me la sono meritata o no? Gli assaggiatori volontari hanno gradito molto.
* For Scarlett Salsapariglia, I add photos or hops Rupoli selvatici.Si can cook a bit 'like asparagus, (point out the fact they taste ) with omelettes and risotto ... Rupoli traditional soup, potatoes and rice. It consumes only cima.Il Rupolo is weed and wraps around other plants, usually where the stain is very dense and even among the brambles .
