With this dish, Massimo Bottura won the III International Championship of Virgin Olive Oil Recipes “Jaén, paraíso interior”, and he did it with daring and solemnity. It is a valiant dessert, exuberant in its nuances, exultant in its counterpoints, prepared in utter balance with virtuosic harmony. Bitter, acidic, sweet… sensations expressed with moderation and conjunction. Diverse and pure, each element in the construction, and there are many, manifests itself immaculately: olive oil ice cream, a mousse of white chocolate and olives, almond sponge cake and hot foam. The imagination is impregnated with wise refinement.
