This a perfect recipe for the autumn season, when there are the pears. I chose the Fatulì, because I was recently at home in Italy and we went up to Valle Adamé for a nice walk between the mountains, and as always I love to pick the local artisanal products 🙂 It’s a traditional smoked…

Risi e Bisi (with Goose Confit) – Risi e Bisi, con Oca in Onto
When it comes the season of fresh peas, one of the very first recipes that come to my mind is this traditional recipe of Veneto region 🙂 It might seem a risotto, but it’s not made with the usual process of the risotto. The rice is not usually first toasted, and all the soup is…
Risotto with Red Scorpionfish
Here it is another risotto, with one of the best fish available on the market in my opinion: the Red Scorpionfish. It is a fish that traditionally is used for example in fish soups, but its fillet it’s really delicious, with a nice and nervous texture, and particularly tasty, more intense than many other fish….
Risotto with Tub Gurnard – Risotto alla Gallinella
Do you know the tub gurnard? In Italian we call it gallinella, and traditionally it’s one of those fish used to make many delicious fish soups, but its fillet it’s also very good and it can be used in many ways. In the past, like all the fish “for soups”, it was quite a poor…

I’m sure many of you have already drunk the Earl Grey tea with bergamot flavor, and if you like that then probably you will love also this recipe 🙂 Bergamot is a very unique and very fragrant fruit of the citrus family, it is mostly used for its essential oil for flavoring, but also for…
Beetroot Risotto – Risotto alla Barbabietola
This is not only a good recipe, but also beautiful 🙂 let’s tell the truth, its color is amazing and it can always surprise positively your guests 🙂 It’s a simple recipe (if you are already used to make risotto), with simple ingredients, and if you like this particular winter vegetable for sure you are…
Risotto With Chanterelles and Asiago DOP Cheese
The chanterelles season is back, finally 🙂 I love them, and I love to cook them very simply, indeed my favorite recipe is with pasta (click HERE to say the previous recipe) and almost nothing else added. But also in the risotto they are great, and in this case I decided to add also a…
Risotto alla Zucca – Pumpkin Risotto
The autumn has arrived, and with it also a lot of great recipes typical of that season 🙂 It’s already possible to find pumpkins, so why not to start with a wonderful and colorful risotto? In Italy it’s a recipe typical of Mantova area and also Veneto region, so there the selected pumpkin is usually…
Risotto with Dried Porcini Mushrooms
I love porcini mushrooms, just the smell it’s so inviting and the taste is simply amazing, it’s like having the forest in your dish 🙂 Obviously the best is when you can have fresh porcini, but dried porcini are a very good way to preserve them and to have them all year long. And they…

This recipe is one of the most famous culinary symbols of the city of Milan. It’s another old recipe with a long history: the first verified recipes date back to the beginning of the XIX century (there are legends about its history that allegedly date back even to the XVI century, but in all the…
Risotto with Asparagus
This is the season of the asparagus, so, let’s run to buy some of them and let’s do something good 🙂 Asparagus can be cooked in many ways, but the best ways are the simple ones, where we are not going to cover too much its delicate taste: this risotto I think it’s one of those…
Risotto with European Perch
The European perch is one of my favorite fish, sure is one of the best between the freshwater fish, it’s part of the same family of the zander/walleye, and its fillets are completely boneless (and quite easy to make), so it’s perfect for many kind of recipes. Risotto with European perch is a very common recipe from…
