- For the Parmesan soup: sauté the shallots with the rice in hot oil and douse with the white wine and vermouth. Add the chicken stock and allow to simmer lightly. Add the QimiQ Sauce Base and Rio Briati Parmesan and blend smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and refine with the herbs.
- For the Parmesan foam: mix all the ingredients together until smooth using an immersion blender and heat in a saucepan. Fill into an iSi Gourmet Whip bottle, screw in one charger and shake well.
- Pipe the Parmesan foam into the Parmesan baskets. Refine the Parmesan soup with the basil oil and serve with the Parmesan baskets.
