This is the risotto I’ve always eaten growing up, when asparagus season started in our garden. The moment the first wild asparagus appeared, we knew exactly what was coming: risotto at home, simple, fresh, and deeply comforting.
This time, I wanted to give a twist to my nonna’s traditional recipe.I added goat cheese and raspberries.. and the contrast is incredible. Creamy, slightly tangy, fresh, and bright. It’s still authentic Italian food, but with a modern touch that makes it feel even more special.
This is what real Italian home cooking looks like when it follows the seasons.Spring vegetables, simple ingredients, and recipes built around what nature gives you at the right time.
