Paniscia (Novara)

Paniscia from Novara is a rustic, rich risotto with rice, beans, vegetables and savory ingredients such as bacon and salami. This regional specialty comes from Piedmont and impresses with its creamy consistency and intense aroma of spicy meat and vegetables. Onions, leeks, cabbage and celery add depth of flavor, while the pulses provide creaminess. The dish is ideal as a filling main course, accompanied by a characterful red wine, and is easy to prepare.
