In northern Italy, risotto has a creamy consistency, enjoyed with a spoon or fork. I use this dish as an accompaniment to Italian cooked meats and chicken. Prepare this while the main course is slowly cooking, since it deserves your full attention.

If you like risotto and pork, this is for you!

Beautiful, light risotto made with saffron and homemade chicken stock.

This is recipe I tried 1 day my mom said she never had a risotto dish

Risotto is one of those basic dishes that is great to have in your back pocket for quick dinners, and using up leftovers. Once you have the basic technique mastered, you can make it as fancy or as casual as you like.TIPS: The basic ratio for risotto is 1 part uncooked rice to 3.5 parts liquid. This will include your stock, wine and any additional liquid you are using. Keep an additional 0.5 parts liquid in reserve, as various rices absorb slightly different amounts of liquid.Most risotto recipes call for wine and stock as the liquid, but you can also make "stock" on the fly with dried mushrooms and aromatics such as carrots and celery, added at the beginning of the process with the onions.A little fat added at the end in the form of butter and/or a bit of grated hard cheese will really help give a creamy finish to your risotto.

Risotto is so yummy and delicious :)

This is a very good and delicious dish. But....it's not fast food. Be prepared to stand there and stir the rice for about 20 minutes (a few minutes more more if you use more rice!). But you'll be rewarded with a most delicious, silky smooth rice dish!!

I had this in Italy as a side dish. I wanted to make it so I came up with this recipe. The risotto that my friend served up at her home was better than anything I've had in restaurants. I arranged the recipe using vegetables and skim milk.Adjust the amount of water used according to the type of rice selected.Use whatever you like or have on hand for the vegetables. There's no salt in the vegetable broth. Recipe by Brandy

A good friend of ours was thinking of doing something special for his 15 yr anniversary. He wasn’t a great cook but he and his wife LOVED great food.He had never tried to make a risotto and his wife always ordered it when they are out.He asked me to come over and help him make this delicious dish.It was a beautiful cold crisp winters night, and I left them after making this dish with them sharing this ‘blanket in a bowl’ meal snuggled up by an open fire and a nice bottle of wine.

Famous dish of Italian cuisine achieved by mixing of rice cooked special way and fried mushrooms.
