Risotto is a northern Italian rice dish cooked with broth. The broth can be derived from meat, fish, or vegetables and contains butter, onion, white wine, and parmesan cheese.
Risotto (, Italian: [riˈzɔtto], from riso meaning "rice") is a northern Italian rice dish cooked with broth until it reaches a creamy consistency. The broth can be derived from meat, fish, or vegetables. Many types of risotto contain butter, onion, white wine, and parmesan cheese. It is one of the most common ways of cooking rice in Italy. Saffron was originally used for flavour and its signature yellow colour. Risotto in Italy is normally a first course served before the main course, but risotto alla milanese is often served with ossobuco alla milanese as a main course.
In my opinion the Turkey Neck, Stomach and Parsons nose are the tastiest part of the turkey closely followed by the two oysters
Cut the neck in bits so it fits into the pan. Add parsley and enough water to partially cover the neck. Bring to a boil and skim off any scum Simmer till tender. Pass...

I like risotto slightly runny/soupy. You can adjust recipe if you like tight or runny risotto by respectively reducing or increasing liquid to your taste.
2 ounces dried porcini
1 Tbsp EVOO
1 cup 1/4 inch diced onions
1/2 tsp salt + more
1/4 tsp ground white pepper

Monzese Risotto, Risotto alla Monzese in Italian. As the word says, is typical of the city of Monza, near Milan.
This Risotto is nothing but a close relative of Milanese Risotto that beside saffron has the addition of pork sausage called Luganega.
Serves 4, Preparation time 20 mins + 2 h for...
Light and creamy, the secret to this risotto’s incredible flavour is finding the right cheese to combine with the sweet taste of the orange.
I chose goat’s cheese that retains a soft, elastic paste with an unmistakable yoghurt aftertaste and gave this risotto a rich, velvety texture that...
As some of you know we go to dinner club first Wednesday of the month. Being December we normally go a bit up market. We went to tutto bene, an Italian place. Two things came up, I ordered the lasagne. One of our friends asked why I ordered that when they know I make it. The answer simple, I...

I chose to make this recipe for The CookBook Game #1, because I rarely cook risotto and thought I could do with some practice (as some members may know, I’m not a great risotto fan). This is a lovely, simple recipe. The most difficult task is de-seeding and chopping up the pumpkin. The flavours...

Also known as risotto giallo (literally “yellow risotto”) or risotto alla Milanese, this very simple dish is one of the most famous symbols of Milan.
As it’s common for any risotto, Italians most often eat it as a piatto unico, the only and main course of a meal; it is not unusual, however, to...
Agatha Christie had a truism when it came to stories: a gun shown in the first act must be used by the third act. What she meant was that something as significant as a gun simply cannot be shown in the story if that gun is not going to eventually be used. It’s too confusing for the audience.
