Mushroom Risotto

Arborio rice toasted dry in butter, then built up ladle by ladle with hot stock and mushrooms, finished off heat with cold butter and parmesan. No cream. The creaminess comes entirely from the starch in the rice — that is the whole point of the technique. It takes about 18 minutes of actual cooking once the rice goes in, and you cannot really walk away from it.

Asparagus Risotto with Lemon, Dill and Goat Cheese

Spring asparagus, fresh dill, a hit of lemon, and a pile of goat cheese stirred in at the end — this is risotto that actually tastes like the season. The technique is the same as any risotto: soften aromatics, toast the rice until it smells nutty, add wine, add warm stock ladle by ladle, stir often enough to keep it moving. Where this version diverges is the finish. Goat cheese instead of the usual Parmesan-only approach gives a tang that cuts through the starchiness; dill, stirred in off the heat, stays bright and grassy. The asparagus goes in two ways: the stalks get folded into the risotto in the last few minutes so they stay slightly firm, and the tips get reserved and sautéed separately so they have some color and texture for the top.
