White or red wine? What's the best pairing for risotto?

White or red wine? What's the best pairing for risotto?

Posted on April 26 2019 at 07:15

Talking about wine matches for risotto is a bit like talking about wine with pasta - it’s depends on the other ingredients you use, not the rice.

I know I’ve highlighted crab as a match for a number of different wines but it really is a great dish to pick if you’re drinking a serious white. This time however the wine was far from stellar: the basic house Sauvignon at Culinaria in Bristol where I was doing a photo shoot for our next book.

Dartmouth looks gorgeous even on a stormy day. Here talking about wine and hanging out with good friends for @dartmouthfoodfestival, one of my favourite events of the year. Come down if you’re nearby! . . . #dartmouth #river #boats #coast #devon #dartmouthfoodfestival #clouds #skyVery pretty plate of cured salmon @gezelliglnd last night, topped with burnt apple and Jerusalem artichoke chips. Why has no-one thought of giving cured - or smoked - salmon a crunchy topping before? . . . #salmon #curedsalmon #jerusalemartichoke #starter #gezellig #holbornstudiosIncredible meal at @ikoyi_london last night full of brilliant colours and African-inspired flavours I’ve never tasted before - a bit like when we first encountered New Nordic. It was hard to keep up with exactly what was going on on the plate but the vivid orange and black pumpkin dish (top R) used the flesh, seeds and skins - and a spoonful of Danish caviar on top. There is no menu - you just tell them if there’s anything you can’t eat and the 7 course menu costs £75. There’s a shorter cheaper menu at lunchtime when it’s also easier to get in. Extraordinary. Go! #guest. . . . #africanfood #finedining #londonrestaurants #ikoyipropertiesforsalePickle heaven @thepig_hotel. . . . #pickles #preserves #larder #pantry #instafood #foodstagram Follow on Instagram
