Risotto With Milk Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium pot, combine milk and vanilla bean. Using a vegetable peeler, remove half the lemon peel in strips; add to pot. (Reserve the half-peeled lemon.) Heat liquid over medium heat until steaming but not yet simmering. Remove from heat, cover pot and let stand 1 hour. Uncover pot and rewarm liquid over low heat.
• While milk steeps, heat oven to 350 degrees. Place bread on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until dry and golden, 10 to 25 minutes depending on how dry it was to start with and how thick the slices are. Use a rolling pin to break the bread into large, irregular crumbs, with some the size of peas and the rest finer (you want texture).
• In a large dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast rice until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in oil.
• Stir in several ladles of warm milk (leave behind the vanilla beans and zest). Cook, stirring frequently, until rice has soaked up most of the liquid. Continue cooking, adding a few ladles at a time, until rice is al dente, 18 to 22 minutes. If rice mixture is too thick, or if you have used up all the milk before the rice softens, stir in hot water until the texture is pleasing to you. Stir in sugar and mascarpone. Finely zest the rest of the lemon, grating directly into the pot.
• Spoon into bowls and top with bread crumbs. Drizzle a little coffee over the top if you like, sprinkle with salt and serve.

Steps:

• Wash Canaroli rice under running water until water is almost clear.
• Put rice into pot. Add two cups of milk, the lemon rind and salt. Bring to a boil. Stirring frequently to avoid sticking of rice and burning.
• Reduce heat to medium high and boil for 15 to 20 minutes. It should be a soft boiling. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
• If the milk is absorbed before the rice is done add a little more milk. The rice is done, when it is soft, but still has a bite. This should be after 15 minutes. If you like the rice more soft cook it longer. You should taste some rice corns from time to time (see not on cooking time).
• After the rice is cooked to the consistency you like remove from heat and remove lemon rind. Add butter, sugar and vanilla extract. Stir.
• If the consistency of the milk rice is too firm add some more milk or cream for desired consistency.
• For serving: mix sugar with cinnamon.
• Serve milk risotto warm. Serve sugar-cinnamon mixture, so that everyone can adjust sweetness. If you like not overly sweet, just sprinkle some cinnamon over the milk risotto.
• NOTE on "Cooking Time": Carnaroli Rice needs about 15 minutes to be "al dente". If you like it more soft cook it longer for about 5 minutes. Taste from time to time some rice corns. I always start with 2 cups of milk, but depending on cooking time and desired "softness" of rice you may need more (up to 3 cups). If the milk is absorbed add just a little more milk. If you like the "pure" Risotto consistency, the consistnecy should be creamy and the spoon should build a wave, when you stir the rice.
• NOTE on "Carnaroli Rice": I use this rice, because it gives the best results. You could use other rice varieties, like Arborio, but it should be a high quality short grain rice which is suitable for making a Risotto.

Steps:

• Heat oil in medium saucepan on medium heat. Add mushrooms and onions; cook and stir 5 min. or until tender.
• Stir in rice, water and wine. Bring to boil; cover. Reduce heat to low. Simmer 20 min. or until rice is tender.
• Stir in 1/2 cup of the cheese and the milk. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Add the wild rice, cover the pan, and reduce the heat. Simmer for 25 minutes; drain well.
• Bring 4 cups water to simmer in a large saucepan. Keep the water simmering while you begin step number 3.
• Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Saute the scallions and garlic over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add the Arborio rice; stir it for 2 minutes.
• Pour the wine, the wild rice, and the tarragon into the frying pan. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup of the heated water into the frying pan. Stir frequently until the liquid is absorbed, then add 1/2 cup more water. Continue adding the water in this manner, waiting between additions until the liquid is absorbed and stirring frequently. After about 18 to 20 minutes most of the liquid should be absorbed, and the rice should be tender but still slightly chewy.
• When all of the water is absorbed, add the tomatoes, coconut milk, and peas. Stir in the mixture, and simmer it, stirring often, until most of the liquid is absorbed. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Put oil in a 10-inch skillet, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to medium-high. Add rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until rice glistens and sizzles, 2 or 3 minutes.
• Add wine and let it boil away, stirring once or twice, until mixture is just about dry. Add a cup of hot water and repeat, stirring frequently. Add half the coconut milk and cook, stirring frequently, until it is just about gone. Add remaining coconut milk and repeat.
• At this point rice should be nearly tender; if it is not, repeat process with another 1/2 cup water. Stir in tomato if desired, shrimp, salt and cayenne and cook until mixture is creamy and rice is tender but not mushy. If rice is still too crunchy for your taste, stir in 1/2 cup water and cook, stirring, until mixture is creamy again. Garnish with cilantro, basil or scallions and serve.

Steps:

• Heat water and broth in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in large saucepan over medium heat; add onion and cook until soft. Add rice and stir 2 to 3 minutes. Add wine; stir until absorbed. Increase heat to medium-high; stir in 1 cup water-broth mixture. Cook uncovered, stirring frequently, until liquid is absorbed. Continue stirring and adding remaining water-broth mixture, 1 cup at a time, allowing each cup to be absorbed before adding another. Cook until rice is tender and mixture has a creamy consistency, approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
• Stir in cream, cheese, salt, pepper and remaining butter. Stir until mixture is creamy, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
