Crni Rizot (Black Risotto) · Split
Crni rizot is the Dalmatian squid-ink risotto: short-grain rice cooked with squid and cuttlefish ink, garlic, white wine and olive oil, finished with parsley.
Crni rizot likely arrived in Dalmatia with Venetian rule; the technique of cooking rice with cephalopod ink spread north along the Adriatic from Veneto. Today every Split konoba runs a version, with the standard set by Konoba Matejuska's wood-fired interpretation and the K.uzina kitchen's more contemporary tasting-plate form.
