Risotto is a traditional Italian rice dish cooked with broth and flavored with parmesan cheese and / or other ingredients such as meat, fish, or vegetables. The name means literally "little rice" and it is one of the most common ways of cooking rice in Italy.  Its origins are in northern Italy, (specifically Eastern Piedmont, Western Lombardy and the Veneto), where rice paddies are abundant. Risottos are made using short-grain rice (Italian cultivars of Oryza sativa japonica), with the stock being added gradually while the rice is stirred constantly.  The cooking technique leads the rice to release its starch, giving the finished dish a creamy texture.

This unique risotto already has the peppers included.  All that you need to do is follow the simple instructions on the package to enjoy a very traditional Italian staple.  Gourmet cuisine has never been so easy!

This pasta sauce is the result of two very similar tastes, pinot noir wine and portobello mushrooms, being "married together" to create a truly unique flavor profile...

Often, when wine enthusiasts gather to assess fine wines, they will describe very good quality pinot noir wines as "having a barn-yard nose".  (For those who are unfamiliar with such descriptions, this simply means that the wine has a very "earthy" aroma and bouquet.  To wine enthusiasts, it is a sign that it has excellent varietal characteristics and that it is likely a very, very good wine.)

Portobello mushrooms have a similar, very distinct "earthy" aroma.  They have a unique smell and taste that the French often describe as "le gout de terroir" (or, translated "the taste of the land".)

Thus, it was only appropriate that we "married" the natural taste of pinot noir wine, (with its "barn-yard nose") with portobello mushrooms (with their "taste of the land") to create a pasta sauce that we believe may be unlike anything that you've ever tasted. 

This sauce is created by hand, in small batches to ensure that the taste profile remains constant and superb.  Only the highest quality, all-natural ingredients, including vine-ripened tomatoes, plump, freshly picked portobello mushrooms and carefully selected Pinot Noir wine are used in its creation.  This gourmet pasta sauce contains no additives or preservatives and has no added sugar.   The result is a truly delicious gourmet pasta sauce that superbly enhances virtually any pasta dish.  You'll want to use it with many types of pasta including linguine, fettuccine and even spaghetti, but it is also delicious as a pizza sauce or in lasagna. 

We hope that you enjoy eating it as much as we enjoy creating it...

bon appetit!
