Preparation

  • Start by blanching G 400 of peas in water for 3‘, then stop the cooking process by placing them in a bowl of ice water. Drain the peas and shell them, keeping the skins.
  • Cook the remaining G 400 of peas in lightly salted boiling water for 6-7’. Once cooked, blend the shelled peas together with the skins until you achieve a smooth, glossy puree. Combine the shelled peas with the pea puree and keep everything warm for plating.
  • Mix the honey, miso, water, chili pepper, elderberries, and cacao nibs. Using a brush, coat the quails both inside and out, then place them in the refrigerator for at least 24 h. Every 4 h, baste the quails with the remaining marinade until it’s finished.
  • Cook the quails over a grill or in a skillet, basting them with butter, until they reach a pink center.
  • Finally, cut the quails in half, removing the internal bones. Arrange the peas with their puree and the egg yolk bottarga on a plate, then place the halved quail on top.
