Seasonal Mint and Vegetable Risotto

Venice-based cook and writer Skye McAlpine has a food blog for all the right reasons. “From My Dining Table” is where she shares her recipes and secrets.

 
When we came across this lively, summery recipe we couldn’t resist. The risotto dish is often misunderstood in the United States, yet, Italians are creative and can turn any dish into a treat. We love her innovative approach, and do agree that adding mint helps keep the dish light and fresh.
