# Red Wine Risotto | Made In - Made In

If you’ve wanted a spin on classic risotto, look no further than this red wine variation. Uncork your favorite red for an impressive and beautiful winter meal.

Risotto is one of those dishes that seems fancy but is actually relatively simple to make at home. Brush up on your technique with some tips from Intero’s Executive Chef and co-owner Ian Thurwachter here before putting those skills to use in the kitchen (and if you don’t have a Saucier yet, you should get on that). While this risotto uses red wine, Chef Thurwachter says, "it’s still a classic risotto, we’re still using all the same classic techniques and there are even parts of Italy where the red wine reigns supreme.” Feel free to use either variation as a base and customize it with seasonal ingredients all year round. Here Chef Thurwatcher added seared steak and sauteed mushrooms for more protein.
