THIS HEARTY WINTER RISOTTO IS FROM “CUCINA RUSTICA” BY VIANA LA PLACE AND EVAN KLEIMAN, THE HOST OF NPR’S “GOOD FOOD”, WHOSE ANGELI CAFE HAS BEEN A FIXTURE ON MELROSE FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS. I USE ONE HOT SAUSAGE, ONE FENNEL SAUSAGE, BUT OTHERWISE, THE RECIPE IS IDENTICAL. IT’S A GREAT ONE POT MEAL ON A CHILLY NIGHT — SAUSAGE MEAT, ONION, GARLIC, RED WINE, TOMATO, AND BEEF STOCK– NOTHING IS MORE FILLING NOR MORE SATISFYING. SERVE IT WITH A CHEWY TUSCAN RED, SUCH AS THE CIFRA 2010; 100% CABERNET FRANC WITH A HEFTY 14% ALCOHOL CONTENT. IT’S AVAILABLE AT DOMAINE L.A.
