absolutely wonderful! the only problem I have is that it tastes so good I overeat every time I make it :) .
no salt no life !! not always smooth like butter!
Not meaning to complain, but why does every single recipe on this site have to be seasoned with salt? Is that a British tradition or something? Not that is is a problem, since I just omit it if I don't want it. But I am curious.
Notoriously risotto is prepared adding small amount of broth to rice as soon as it is absorbed; this requires a continuous stiring. The cooking process takes 16-18 minutes on a very high fire. It can be prepared very quickly in a steam pot; in this case after you have done step 4, you add the rice and add broth until it covers the rice and close the steam pot and wait until the first steam buffs from the valve. Then reduce the fire to the minimum and wait 6-7 minutes. Cool the steam pot and add parmesan or what ever you want and stir for 1-2 minutes.
Chicken stock is not vegetarian........
