Then, pay attention to the variety you are using; the most suitable for risotto are <b>Carnaroli, Roma, Sant\u2019Andrea, Vialone nano, and Arborio.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>The pot you use, the result you get<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The choice of the pot to use is important. Indeed, the ideal would be <b>to use a copper pan<\/b>, but also <b>steel or aluminum<\/b> will be fine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The pot should be wide and high enough, to be able to spread the rice grains and submerge them with the broth during cooking.<\/p>\n<h2><b> Saut\u00e9: the debate <\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">At the beginning of the preparation of risotto, there is a fundamental question: <b>to do or not to do the saut\u00e9?<\/b> Opinions here are divided, and the issue becomes debated.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"992\" height=\"661\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4977 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/dialbrodo.noooserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/soffritto-cipolla-992x661.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/soffritto-cipolla-992x661.jpg 992w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/soffritto-cipolla-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/soffritto-cipolla.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" \/>\n<p class=\"p1\">In fact, there are those who, like the well-known chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo, toasts dry rice. Others, in the meanwhile, start from saut\u00e9ed chopped onion or from butter on which the rice is left to toast before adding the broth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>The toasting process is very important for the perfect success of your risotto<\/b>: in fact, by carefully heating the beans, they will be sealed and will later release the right amount of starch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Whether you are of one school of thought or the other, <b>it is important to cook everything over low heat and check that the grain does not burn and becomes perfectly translucent!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>It\u2019s broth time!<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Here we are at the time of cooking the rice: now <b>the role of broth is essential<\/b>. The cooking of risotto, indeed, consists of the progressive addition of liquid as it is absorbed by the grain or evaporates. But we are not talking about a random liquid, not at all!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"992\" height=\"661\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4978 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/dialbrodo.noooserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cottura-riso-992x661.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cottura-riso-992x661.jpg 992w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cottura-riso-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/cottura-riso.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Usually, there are two main mistakes that lead to mediocre cooking of risotto: using water instead of broth, or adding cold broth. In the first case, the taste of the risotto will suffer a lot, while in the second the cooking will not be effective since the low temperatures will continuously block the cooking. So, in a nutshell, <b>a quality and boiling broth is necessary!<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><b>The final sprint: the creaming<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Creaming is an art and, if done correctly, it will give your risotto the finishing touch. The secret to keep in mind in this step is to use a fatty element, be it butter or oil, which must be very cold, since <b>the thermal shock will make the risotto shiny and creamy.<\/b> Therefore, move the pan away from the heat, then add butter and grated Parmesan cheese to the rice. Cover the pot and let the rice rest for a few minutes. And your dish will be ready to taste.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"992\" height=\"661\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4979 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/dialbrodo.noooserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/risotto-zafferano-992x661.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/risotto-zafferano-992x661.jpg 992w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/risotto-zafferano-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.dialbrodo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/risotto-zafferano.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 992px) 100vw, 992px\" \/>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">These are few and simple aspects to keep in mind to get perfect risotto, creamy and cooked to the right point, to combine with your favorite ingredients. <b>Follow them all and cook your perfect risotto!<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The perfect risotto exists.
