The Dish You Must Learn to Make: Risotto
There is nothing better than walking down into the kitchen and being immediately hit with the aroma of risotto in the making. In my house, we have made many different versions such as carbonara risotto, spaghetti risotto, mushroom risotto, carnitas and jalapeno risotto, and saffron risotto. My grandma learned how to make this from her mom, and she has passed it down to me and my family. This Italian rice dish is one of the most versatile dishes out there. Risotto is a classic dish in many Italian families and usually includes some type of broth, Arborio rice, parmesan cheese, onion, and white wine. In addition to these ingredients, you can customize the dish to your liking. This is a recipe you can get creative with! Here’s a recipe to test out:
