Black garlic potato mash with pineapple and cinnamon rum flambé pears

Sunset of wine... but also divine is Tomas's recipe!

On 4 September, the Ferrara leg of TramontoDiVino, the Emilia-Romagna taste road show that has become an unmissable appointment for all fans of the best wines and PDO and PGI products of our region. In the evocative setting of Piazza del Municipio the chef Tomas Marfella prepared these amazing mashed potatoes with Nero di Voghiera garlic and pears flambéed in pineapple rum and cinnamon, not only really nice to look at but also... delicious! Let's see how to prepare them...
black garlic mashed potato recipes
We will need them:
  • 500 g potatoes
  • 2 cloves of Nero di Voghiera garlic
  • Olive oil to taste
  • 1 Pears from Emilia Romagna
  • 200ml pineapple rum
  • Salt, pepper and cinnamon

Let's start boiling potatoes in plenty of boiling salted water, peel them while still hot and let them cool down, taking care to keep them well separated between them

In the meantime we blend the black garlic of Voghiera with a little olive oil - with the help of an immersion blender - until obtain the cream which we will use later for flavour the potatoesas soon as they are lukewarm, mash them with a fork and incorporate the cream until a coarse compound but homogeneous.

Let us devote ourselves to pears: let's cut them sliced and sauté them in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil. As soon as they are toasted, we bathe with the rum e let's flambé them with the help of a lighter. While the flame is still bright, we sprinkle with the cinnamon directly on the flame so that the cinnamon powder is also instantly toasted. Once all the alcohol has evaporated, the flame will extinguish itself and we are ready to serve.

We form two quenelle for each plate and placing 2 slices of potato pears on them, sprinkle with cinnamon, pepper and a drizzle of oil to taste and serve.
