Did You Know You Were Great at Making Risotto?

Risotto is a classic northern Italian dish with the great advantage of versatility. It can contain seasonal vegetables, meat, fish or even fruit. Some people make an onion soffritto for it; some people don’t. Some folks prefer it so thick and creamy it forms a wave when the dish is tilted. Others can’t resist a traditional treatment based on butter and cheese. Risotto is a dish that adapts to personal tastes and family habits, but you need to observe a few basic rules to prevent it from becoming gluey, dry, scorched or boring. While in the Far East rice is a side dish served with the main course, in our tradition it can be the focus of the meal – provided it gets the attention it deserves.
