Description
I took this recipe from an Italian cookbook. Here are some tips: - Serve the dish for dinner. — The recommended type of medium-grain rice is Vialone Nano. — For cooking wine, it is advised to choose one with fruity notes. — Alto Adige Gewuerztraminer is recommended as the wine for this dish. — In the colder months, it is suggested to use crab apples and herb cheese or Taleggio for this recipe.
