Sweet Corn Brown Rice Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring vegetable stock and 2 cups water to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium pot over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring, until toasted, 1 minute.
• Stir in wine and cook until evaporated, about 2 minutes. Add 2 cups stock mixture and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Continue to add more stock mixture 1/2 cup at a time, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and creamy, 35 to 40 minutes. Add corn and cook until tender, about 5 minutes, adding more stock mixture as needed to maintain a loose and creamy consistency.
• Stir in Parmigiano and basil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon into bowls and garnish with more basil before serving.

Steps:

• Risotto: Preheat a wide saucepan then add the olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the shallots, garlic, bay leaf, and thyme, and cook until translucent.
• Add the arborio rice and stir frequently to coat with the oil. Deglaze with the white wine and keep stirring, you will need to stir throughout this whole recipe.
• When the rice has absorbed the wine, add the hot corn stock in three equal amounts and keep the rice at a constant boil while stirring. After the addition of the third equal amount add the corn and cream, when the liquid is absorbed and the rice is cooked, adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, then fold in the parmesan and butter, and remove from heat.
• Sauce: Place the vegetable stock and the parsley in a bar blender and puree until smooth and bright green, then strain through a fine mesh strainer. Combine the liquid and the truffles in a small saucepot and bring almost to a boil. Whisk the butter and adjust with salt and pepper, then set aside.
• Scallops: Preheat a skillet and cover with olive oil, add the seasoned scallops to the pan and saute on both sides for about 5 minutes, while cooking the scallops, add the butter and thyme to the skillet, and baste the scallop while cooking.
• Place equal amounts of risotto in the center of 4 plates and top each with 3 scallops. Lightly cover the scallops with the parsley sauce.

Steps:

• Heat the chicken stock in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until hot, reduce the heat to low, and keep the stock at a low simmer.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Cook the scallions, stirring, just until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, stirring slowly and continuously with a wooden spoon until the grains are opaque and coated in the oil, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and pour in the wine. Cook and stir until all the liquid has evaporated, about 3 minutes. Don't let the rice brown.
• Ladle in about 1 cup of the warm stock and stir with a wooden spoon until the rice has absorbed all the liquid, about 6 minutes. When almost all the liquid is gone, ladle in another 1/2 cup stock. Keep stirring and adding the stock, 1/2 cup at a time, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more. After the rice has absorbed 2 1/2 cups stock, taste it. The rice should be firm to the bite but creamy. If it is hard, continue to add stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly, until the rice tastes perfect to you. (You may not need all of the stock.)
• Stir in the corn and reduce the heat to very low so the risotto stops simmering. Stir in the butter, cheese, and herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring the corn stock or chicken stock to a simmer in a saucepan and keep it simmering as you prepare the risotto.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a wide, high-sided sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add leek and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add rice and cook, stirring, until grains look slightly translucent.
• Pour in wine and cook, stirring, until it has all been absorbed, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add a ladleful of hot corn stock to the rice mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until rice has absorbed all of the stock. Continue cooking, adding ladlefuls of stock whenever rice mixture looks dry and stirring continuously. When half the stock has been added, stir in corn. Continue cooking until all of the stock is incorporated, corn is tender and rice is creamy and tender, about 30 to 40 minutes total.
• Remove risotto from heat and stir in Parmesan and remaining tablespoon of butter. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
• In an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat cream at high speed until it holds stiff peaks. Uncover risotto, stir vigorously and season to taste with salt and pepper. Immediately before serving, stir in the chives, if using, then gently fold in cream.
• Combine all ingredients with 6 cups water in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat so liquid is simmering; cover pot and let simmer for 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer. Add enough water to bring liquid up to 6 cups.

Steps:

• Break Tough bottoms off the aparagus and cut into 3/4 Inch pieces.(I like cutting them diagonally for nicer presentation).
• Heat Stock and hold just at the boiling point.
• Melt 3 Tbls Butter in a good size skillet.
• Add Sweet Onion (vidallia or Mayan) and cook on Med/High heat till onions turn translucent (take care not to brown the butter).
• Add risotto and toss/stir till the risotto is well coated and continue cooking till the rice gets translucent around the edges and maybe even a touch of brown.
• Add the Dry white wine and stir briefly.
• Reduce heat to medium/low and add 1 1/2 Cups of stock. Cook until liquid is absorbed then add another 1 1/2 Cups of stock.
• Once the liquid is absorbed again add 1/2 Cup of stock, Asparagus, and Corn and stir just enough to incorporate the ingredients.
• Add white pepper to taste.
• Once liquid is again absorbed, tase for consistancy. If it is too firm yet, keep adding liquid 1/2 Cup at a time, always waiting till the liquid is absorbed before adding more. Do this until rice is tender but still firm.
• Add 1 cup shredded Asiago Cheese, 4 Tbls Butter, and 1/2 pint of heavy cream and stir till butter is melted and everything is well incorporated.
• Finish by sprinkling the remaining cup of Asiago on top and let it melt.

Steps:

• Bring vegetable broth and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Add asparagus, reduce heat to low, and simmer until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer asparagus to a bowl of ice water; let chill for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside. Meanwhile, cover saucepan and keep broth mixture at a near-simmer on low heat.
• Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring gently, until toasted and fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Pour 1 cup of the hot broth mixture into the rice and cook, stirring constantly, until liquid is almost absorbed. Adjust heat if necessary to maintain a simmer. Repeat, using 1/2 cup liquid at a time, until rice is just beginning to become tender, about 25 minutes.
• Stir in diced carrots. Continue adding broth and stirring rice mixture until carrots are just tender, about 20 minutes more. Mix in zucchini; if broth mixture gets low, add hot water as needed. Cook and stir, adding broth, until rice is tender, about 5 minutes.
• Mix in drained asparagus and peas and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes, Add Parmesan and butter, stirring until butter melts. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour in an additional 1/2 cup hot broth to the finished risotto for a softer consistency, if desired.
