There is an old adage 'what grows together, goes together', this recipe is a perfect expression of just that. With fungi on the ground, and traditionally, wood pigeons nesting in the trees above, it's not wonder they make a classic combination. In this dish, pearl barley risotto takes the place of the common rice grain - the nuttiness and hardiness of the barley grain is a wonderful partnership with the gamey pigeon. A perfect celebration of the forest on one plate.
