1. After you add your last ladle of broth, be sure to cook the risotto down to ‘Au Sec’ for the final time so it's the ideal texture once you add the dairy.

2. When sweating your shallots and toasting your rice, try to get little to no color.

3. Don't stop stirring! You may get tired, but I promise it's worth it—the more you stir, the creamier your risotto will be.

4. Always season to taste! Add as much or as little salt and acid as you prefer.

5. Feel free to add a purée of any of your favorite vegetables in place of the whipped cream for a lighter version of this dish. Spinach purée, butternut squash puree, and asparagus purée will all taste incredible!

6.. This risotto tastes great with your favorite roast veggies. Or, you can wilt some tender greens like arugula, spinach, or pea tendrils directly into your finished risotto for added flavor!

WINE PAIRING NOTES

The dish is rich, creamy, & buttery—the ideal showcase for beautiful, aromatic truffles. When I'm pairing for anything involving truffles, I look to where truffles are hunted: France, Spain, Italy, and Australia.

If you prefer red wine, I love a Northern Italian Barolo from the Nebbiolo grape, which produces a big wine with high acid and full-bodied tannins. A Spanish Rioja from the Tempranillo grape would also be delicious, which is fruit-forward when young, with red fruit dominating, high acid, and medium tannins. Southern Italian Aglianico is nicely versatile, combining the flavor profile of Pinot Noir and Barolo, with high acid and a smooth, light to medium body.

If you enjoy white wine, try an Italian wine produced from the Trebbiano or Vermentino grape. Known for their herbality and freshness, they make for the perfect palate cleanser for the risotto's richness, wiping the slate clean to prepare you for another delicious bite. Similarly, Spanish Albarino with its notes of fresh meyer lemon zest makes for an excellent pairing.

Cheers!
