WILD ASPARAGUS RISOTTO easy first course, quick recipe, good and light main dish to make in no time, idea for lunch or dinner.
Asparagus lends itself to many preparations, it’s a gluten-free recipe, a Sardinian recipe, but I believe it’s made all over Italy; never prepared an asparagus risotto, really excellent!
I really like asparagus, my mother always tells that as a child she used to go with her dad to the mountains still under the moonlight looking for wild asparagus, berries, and many other good things that the Sardinian land had to offer!
Beyond the beauty of the place, the tranquility and the scents of Sardinia I think are truly unique! A risotto with wild asparagus, the Sardinian ones, would certainly have been much more fragrant than mine.
If you’ve never tried an asparagus risotto like this, I recommend doing so, a quick first course, very good! And here we are! another appointment with Italy on the plate! this month flowers, herbs, and berries, nature on the table from all over Italy.
Follow me in the kitchen today there’s asparagus risotto!
