Seasonal Asparagus Risotto

In our new seasonal menu dedicated to asparagus, we are proud to present the “Signor Risotto agli Asparagi” – an elegant and unexpected creation by our chef Alessio Sebastiani. Creamy and enveloping, this risotto combines the delicate flavor of fresh asparagus with the rich, nutty character of Castelmagno, one of Piedmont’s finest traditional cheeses. The final touch? Fermented wild strawberries, whose acidity perfectly balances the dish and enhances each spoonful, offering a bold, fresh, and distinctly springtime experience.

Asparagus is the symbol of a healthy and flavorful spring. Rich in fiber, vitamins, and detoxifying properties, it has long been valued both for its health benefits and its taste. At Cactus Milano, we celebrate its versatility with dishes that highlight its flavor and seasonal freshness. Whether paired with delicate cheeses, white meats, or—like in this case—as the star of an unforgettable risotto, asparagus becomes a refined centerpiece of our contemporary cuisine.

At Cactus Milano, we believe that each season brings its own unique flavors to explore. That’s why we constantly renew our menus to showcase the freshest ingredients, supporting local producers and prioritizing quality and sustainability. Our asparagus-themed seasonal menu is the latest chapter in a culinary journey that follows nature’s rhythm, offering dishes that are authentic, surprising, and always in harmony with the environment.

Join us at Cactus Milano to discover our new asparagus-inspired menu, where every dish is designed to enhance the flavor of the season’s star ingredient with elegance, balance, and creativity. Our “Risotto agli Asparagi” is more than just a first course—it’s a tribute to seasonal cuisine and the beauty of natural flavors.
