Traditionally, rice was present in Norther Iran cooking and in the houses of wealthy, while in the rest of the Country bread was the main element. Nowadays, the most appreciated varieties of rice thanks to their flavour are the ones cultivated in Northern Iran. The proposed recipe is Meigoo Polow, a dish cooked in Southern Iran.

The sweetness of caramelized pears melds beautifully with the richness of Taleggio cheese, while crunchy walnuts add the perfect contrast. Ideal for a cozy evening or to impress at a dinner party, this risotto is comfort food elevated to a form of art. Enjoy!
