Recipe: Riso Vialone Nano with Tastasal and Wine Pairing
The "risotto col tastasàl" is a typical dish of Veronese cuisine prepared with the local rice, vialone nano, and fresh sausage mixture (the tastasal!). The name tastasàl comes from the fact that in the past, when the pig was slaughtered and salami were made at home, the fresh mixture, before being stuffed into casings, was tasted; sometimes fried, other times roasted – and someone came up with the recipe with risotto!
