Risotto al Nero di Seppia
The dramatic black risotto of Venice — ink-stained rice with cuttlefish, white wine and parsley. Toasting the rice briefly before any liquid goes in, then adding warm stock one ladle at a time, builds risotto's signature creamy texture.

Sauté onion in olive oil until soft, add garlic.
Add cuttlefish and cook 5 minutes until starting to colour.

Stir in squid ink, then add warm stock one ladle at a time stirring constantly.

Scatter with parsley — the contrast of green on black is striking.
