The story

About the dish

Carnaroli rice, guanciale, scallops, and sage form the flavor foundation of Risotto con Capesante. Slow cooking gives it time to soften, concentrate, and gather savory depth. Taste it for a mellow grain character that carries the surrounding flavors from Carnaroli rice, salt-cured depth and rounded savor from guanciale, and sweet brininess and maritime savor from scallops.

Through the dish, the Italian table turns toward its northern grain country, where rice and polenta absorb the flavors of dairy, wine, vegetables and slow cooking.
