For this piece of northern Italian cuisine, you need to pan-cook the rice in chicken stock and white wine. Also, don’t forget the olive oil, onion, parmesan, and butter for a proper risotto texture and a truly delicious dish. Serve this with style, topping it with a mildly sweet red wine reduction sauce. It concentrates the red wine’s flavor and enriches it with rosemary, thyme, and onion.

You can prepare polenta not just as a porridge. Here is just one of the many alternatives. Let it cool, cut it into different shapes and bake it together with feta. But this wouldn’t be cheesy enough for us, so make it extra-cheesy by adding parmesan on top. Serve it as is or as a side dish. And although cold, reheated, or grilled is also OK, we think eating it warm is much better.
