Risotto

Mmm, Risotto

A while back Kristin and I were inspired to make risotto. It is a labour intensive process: Browning it beforehand, adding liquid at certain intervals, the continual stirring. If you are prepared for all that, though, it is wonderful.
We made a creamy, parmesan risotto from the recipe on the box. How cool is that? It was the first time I had tried risotto, but I had no fear to overcome. Knowing it was pasta and cheese and smelling it on my plate alleviated any anxiety.
It was excellent. Rich and flavourful. I never wanted to stop eating it. Risotto is what Mac & Cheese dreams it could be. A mouthful of risotto is delight.
 VERDICT: This doesn't often happen on a first tasting, but risotto is favourite!
