Piemonte Primo Main Course Risotto al Barolo

Ciao, Buongustai!
Today we will venture the beautiful region of Piemonte, in the northern Italy.
Our specialty from Piemonte is Risotto al Barolo, an aromatic rice cooked with… WINE!
Very delicate and tasty.
We will need:
2 cups of rice
2 cups of Barolo wine
2 cups of beef broth
½ cup of melted butter
1 onion – blended
1 tbsp of sage
1 cup of Parmesan cheese – grated.
Over medium/high heat, pour the butter, add the onion, and, when it starts bubbling, pour your rice. Stir, add wine and cover. Use the beef broth to complete the cooking.
Our Barolo wine for today is Tesoro della Regina, 2017, intense and full-bodied, with hints of berry, red currant and red plum. Will perfectly compliment the Parmesan cheese of this recipe.
Adjust with cheese and sage and enjoy!
