Risotto is a simple dish with just a few ingredients, and yet many people fail at making it. The perfect risotto can only be achieved with a lot of patience and instinct. Head chef Elvis Dollenga from the Milanese restaurant Risoelatte shows you all the tricks on how to prepare Risotto alla Milanese perfectly and how to achieve that special, creamy consistency. The special thing about Risotto alla Milanese: the saffron gives it its yellow hue. In the 16th century, one of the apprentices working on the stained glass windows of Milan Cathedral is said to have added saffron to the white rice to give it its special color. Today, Risotto alla Milanese is a classic of Italian cuisine. Italy is still the largest rice exporter in Europe. The rice is grown in the Po Valley, which is also known as the rice bowl of Europe. So it's no wonder that the traditional Milanese dish is risotto. You need risotto rice (only this releases the starch during cooking and constant stirring to create the special creaminess), freshly cooked beef stock made from bones and vegetables, white wine, parmesan and butter. And of course: saffron. • • Chapters • 0:00 Intro • 0:47 The Ingredients • 1:18 Step 1: Sautéing • 1:35 Step 2: The Rice • 1:58 Step 3: The White Wine • 2:17 Step 4: The Broth • 2:41 On the Market • 3:00 The Importance of Patience • 3:20 Step 5: The Saffron • 3:49 Step 6: Butter and Parmesan • 4:25 The Quality Check • • CREDITS: • Report: Andrea Horakh • Camera: Domenico Cannata • Edit: Monika Wenczel • Supervising Editors: Ruben Kalus • Thumbnail picture: (C) imageBROKER/MatsxSilvan ibxvxo09960576.jpg • • #food #risotto #italiankitchen • ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ • Subscribe to DW Food: • https://bit.ly/DWFood_Sub • DW Food brings you the perfect blend of culinary trends, easy DIY recipes, exciting food secrets a look behind the scenes of Europe’s culinary culture.
