Lately I have been travelling to Verona and found out that the chef, Gabriele Ferron, nicknamed the 'king of rice' uses the no stirring technique for risotto. I have learnt how to cook risotto using this method and I found out that it is much better. The attention needs to be given to the type of rice you use and the amount of stock. What type of rice did you use? Because I use Vialone nano or Carnaroli and if you do not stir the grains keep intact totally. While when I retried the stirring technique the rice started to break down and becoming mushy. I love risotto too and can eat day every day.

Thanks for the test. I also LOVE risotto. I make it all the time. I like to toot my own horn and say I have mastered it. I don't know about the hour cooking time. I was told years ago 23 minutes. I have never strayed from that rule. It works every time. Thanks again! I love the new style! Thanks for the test. I also LOVE risotto. I make it all the time.
