It brings a familiar comfort food feel to the start of the table, offering a hearty texture and bright pickled crunch that make it an engaging bite before moving on to pizza or pasta dishes.
Truffle Mac and Cheese Arancini

The harmony between the decadent mac and cheese filling and the vibrant sweet pea ricotta creates a thoughtful contrast, turning a casual starter into a standout dish on the table.
