Pumpkin, Radicchio di Treviso & Gorgonzola Risotto

A traditional Venetian risotto combining the earthy sweetness of pumpkin, the pleasantly bitter flavor of radicchio di Treviso, and the rich, tangy creaminess of Gorgonzola cheese. Slowly cooked with shallots, vegetable stock, and a touch of turmeric, the rice develops a beautifully creamy texture while remaining al dente. The contrasting flavors of sweet pumpkin, bitter radicchio, and savory blue cheese create a comforting yet elegant dish that celebrates the ingredients and culinary traditions of northern Italy.
