Squid Ink Risotto

Squid Ink Risotto is a creamy, savory dish made by sautéing onion, garlic, and squid, then simmering rice with white wine, tomato, and fish stock until tender. The squid ink imparts a rich, briny flavor and deep black color to the risotto, while butter and parmesan cheese add a luxurious finish. The result is a comforting, umami-rich dish.

The Squid Ink Risotto, a savory and creamy dish, is best paired with a white Marsanne or a red Sangiovese wine. The sautéed squid, onion, and garlic, combined with the rich umami flavors of the risotto, call for a medium to full-bodied wine. Marsanne's subtle earthy and nutty notes complement the dish's complexity, while Sangiovese's high acidity and tannins cut through the richness, providing a balanced pairing.
