Risotto

Risotto is one of those creamy Italian dishes that’s oh-so-comforting and a real treat as the weather starts to cool.

But if you find the risotto you make at home is lacking a certain something, culinary pros have a word of advice – and the mistake you’re making might actually be very easy to rectify.

Recently, a risotto-loving Redditor took to r/AskCulinary to say their risotto smells nice and rich, but “doesn’t taste that way” – and they pondered where they were going wrong.

They shared that they typically cook the onions and toast the rice for a minute, before adding white wine. They then cook the rice in mushroom stock (for about 25 minutes) before adding butter and parmesan.

Redditor ivaivazovski also said they added some mushrooms, which they’d fried separately and, again, deglazed with white wine.

“It tastes alright, but I was expecting it to taste a lot richer based on the smell. What can I do to actually enhance the taste?”........
