Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

Risotto works really well with Chianti, Verdicchio, and Trebbiano. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. You could try Castellare Chianti Classico Riservan Il Poggiale. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 34 dollars per bottle.

Castellare Chianti Classico Riserva Il Poggiale

Made from 90% Sangioveto, 5% Canaiolo, and 5% Ciliegiolo grown in the Il Poggiale vineyard, the grapes come from an elevation of almost 1,500 feet above sea level. The combination of high elevation and extremely low yields results in a wine thatmanages to simultaneously show both restraint and layered richness. This classic red holds great aging capability.This Riserva is a brilliant garnet color with layered aromas of red cherries, earth, rose flowers, and leather. On the palate, the wine shows excellent structure with firm, integrated tannins and is full-bodied with plenty of spice.

Instructions

  1. Cook beetroot as per cooking instructions, allow to cool then cut into
  2. (1cm) 1/2 inch cubes, put to one side.
  3. Place the oil and butter in a large heavy based shallow pan and saute the onion over a moderate heat until softened.
  4. Add the rice and stir to coat in the oil and butter, then gradually add the stock stirring constantly between each addition.

  5. Stir the chopped beetroot, mascarpone, horseradish and parsley into the risotto, heat for a further 1-2 minutes.
  6. To serve: Pile spoonfuls of the risotto into large serving bowls and garnish with the reserved beetroot leaves. Serve immediately.
