A good risotto recipe is just about the best dishes you can cook in one pot. But what’s the secret to a good risotto? From how to cook risotto to picking the perfect seasonal recipe, there are a few golden rules: keep the stock hot; stir the liquid into the rice, one ladleful at a time; and make sure the rice is al dente, never soggy. Finish with a generous dollop of butter, mascarpone, or crème fraîche, and above all, don’t forget the parmesan.
Our collection of risotto recipes range from an easy mushroom risotto ready in about 30 minutes to perhaps the best risotto recipe of pumpkin, brown butter, and Gorgonzola out there.
