To make the risotto creamier, GUESS WHAT I DO? TIP I blend the vegetables I have put into the vegetable broth, making it thicker and making your risottos even creamier, try it and let me know.
At this point, when the vegetables are tender add the previously toasted rice and cook by drizzling the creamy broth I mentioned before 😉
When it’s cooked, no butter to cream just a sprinkle of Parmesan and in the center of the plate two teaspoons of stracchino cheese. A small amount is enough. Each of us can optionally add more, it will be even more appetizing.
Advice
If you prefer, instead of stracchino you can use another type of soft cheese. The creamy effect will be guaranteed.
FAQ (Questions and Answers)
Have you ever prepared a vegetable broth as I suggested?
If you haven’t, I assure you that this simple tip will make the risotto wonderfully creamy, and you won’t necessarily need to cream it with butter. I used Parmesan, which made it equally delicious.
The creaminess from the pureed vegetables will be special.
