Panissa (Piedmont)

Panissa is an Italian dish consisting of risotto and beans. The soupy risotto is often made with d'la duja salami, wine, onions, tomatoes, olive oil, butter, and cheese, while the bean soup is enhanced with bay leaves, cabbage, celery, and carrots. It is recommended to use red borlotti beans while preparing the dish, and it is said that the risotto should never be left unattended, as it is important to keep stirring it while it cooks. When panissa is cooked, it is best to serve it with some grated Parmesan on top.
