Ricetta risotto alla milanese

Uno dei piatti più tipici e conosciuti a Milano

Oggi vi proponiamo una classica ricetta: risotto alla milanese.

Il moderno risotto alla milanese deriva dalla precedente versione semplificata "riso col zafran"; solo nell' 800 si inizia ad usare l'attuale ricetta: risotto con lo zafferano e midollo di bue.

La leggenda narra che l'uso di questa spezia ebbe inizio, a metà del '500, durante il pranzo di nozze della figlia di un vetraio che lavorava alle vetrate del Duomo di Milano. Il pistillo del fiore veniva aggiunto nelle preparazioni dei mastri vetrai per ottenere la tipica colorazione giallo oro e, forse per scherzo, venne inserito nella ricetta base. Questo nuovo abbinamento piacque così tanto da diffondersi in tutto il territorio.

Gli amanti delle portate uniche, seguono la ricetta che lo vede servito accompagnato all'ossobuco.

Anche a questo piatto è stato riconosciuto De. Co. (Denominazione Comunale), etichetta che aiuta gli appassionati di turismo enogastronomico ad individuare i prodotti tipici della zona.
