Basic Risotto Recipe
"Basic Risotto Recipe This simple risotto recipe is made with butter and parmesan cheese. A classic Italian rice dish, risotto is traditionally prepared with a variety of starchy, short-grained rice called arborio rice. The procedure for making it involves stirring hot stock into the uncooked rice a ladleful at a time and cooking slowly as the stock is absorbed. This technique, known as the risotto method, releases the arborio's starches, making a creamy, velvety dish. For an illustrated demo of the risotto method, here's a step-by-step tutorial on how to make risotto. And these risotto cakes are a great use for leftovers...."
