My DH didn't like risotto until I made it for him, which was actually the first time I had ever made it! He has never liked restaurant versions.I don't like risotto and I don't make sushi at home

I usually don't either. They are always too tight/dry. Don't want a soupy risotto either, rather one that oozes/spreads slowly. We're having risotto within the next week or so, mushroom, asparagus, and with leftover prosciutto from last night stirred in at the very end.
By the way, given the corn discussion in another thread, fresh corn makes a great risotto, kernels cut off and stirred in for most of the rice cooking time, cobbs scraped and the milk stirred in toward the end, and, if you want to get really corny, make a broth with scraped corn cobbs.

I don't make it often but when I do, I make it in a pressure cooker (stove top before I got my Instant pot). Seven minutes and done! No way I can stand and stir for 20+ minutes.

Oh, I don't stir my rice. My mom taught me to bring it to a boil, cover, simmer, and turn it off. Maybe one day I'll get an instapot.

I meant 7 minutes for pressure cooker risotto. Regular rice, my mom cooked the same way. I just let simmer on low for 15- 20 minutes for jasmine. Brown about 40 minutes.

I didn't know that you could cook risotto in the pressure cooker!

Yup seven minutes and done. Not sure if I posted the recipe here. I’ll check when I’m on my laptop. If not I’ll post.
Here you go.

Yeah, I see it was 2 years ago. I'd forgotten. But I don't have a pressure cooker, so...
On the button. Dry ones usually are undercooked as well; soupy ones tell me the cook didn't stir the damn risotto at all. The oozy ones are just "amore"

Maybe I never had a proper risotto.
Too me, they taste like mushy rice. Rice cooked with too much water.
Maybe it is just my expectation. When I see rice, I expect it a certain way.
If it's too moist, better add more water and savoury items and keep cooking till you got bubur or congee

Sometimes I use my IP. Usually though I'll use my rice cooker since I can set it up whenever and walk away. You can set when you want it to be done and it's spot on accurate.

That's why you get a rolling stool for the kitchen.
