We\u2019ve use ready-prepared, cooked and peeled chestnuts which can be easily found in the shops. This makes the whole process a lot quicker and less fiddly.<\/p>\n

This recipe combines smoky bacon with the sweetest of chestnuts \u2014 these two ingredients have always been perfect partners on the Christmas table, so why not give them a chance any other time of the year too.<\/p>\n

Don’t be put off by the use of red wine as it gives a good flavour \u2014 the colour may be a little odd but this dish is all about the taste.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/artisanfoodtrail.co.uk\/recipes\/aft\/bacon-chestnut-risotto\/” button_text=”View Recipe” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_bg_color=”rgba(133,61,1,0.26)” button_border_width=”0px” button_font=”Arvo||||||||” button_icon=”h||divi||400″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column_inner][\/et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_row_inner admin_label=”Row” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”10px||20px|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column_inner saved_specialty_column_type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Photo Credit” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ text_font=”||on||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”right” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
