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.

    Recipe Goat Cheese and Orange Zest Risotto

    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...

    Recipe Risotto de Zucca (Pumpkin Risotto)

    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).

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. I...
