Simple enough... I love risotto! Something about it's creamy richness and the simple, continuously hands-on preparation just speaks to my foodie-soul. And I just happened to have a few steaks thawing for an undetermined meal that would be great with a side of creamy, rich risotto!
Looking through the book at all the beautiful, drool-inspiring photos and recipes... I was quickly drawn to the Artichoke & Pecorino Risotto Recipe. It was everything I wanted... creamy rice, rich cheese, tangy wine, earthy pan-seared artichoke hearts... and to make things even better - I had all the ingredients I needed on hand!
Let me just tell you... I will be going back to this cookbook again and again when I have risotto cravings! Wow. Just... wow.
Want to know my all-time hands-down favorite-risotto-recipe-ever?? This Red Wine Risotto with Peas from Giada DeLaurentiis! It is amazing! Seriously. Probably on my top 10 favorite foods of all time. Quite possibly.
