Risotto allo champagne

Champagne risotto for two

Risotto allo champagne, or Champagne Risotto, is a simple but elegant first course. It is very much follows the basic recipe for a risotto in bianco but gets its particular charm from the use of Champagne instead of wine. You might think it extravagant to cook with Champagne, but you only use a couple of glasses. And once you open that bottle, you’ll get to finish it off with your dinner guests…

It’s an ideal primo for a New Year’s Eve dinner or a romantic supper for two.
