Pistachio Risotto
Created by The MDM Team, Friday, December 7, 2007
Prepare to go nuts over this creamy, dreamy risotto dish. The pistachio flavor adds an element that's out of this world.
Ingredients
4 Tbsp. butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tsp. saffron threads
2 cups Arborio rice
1 cup dry vermouth
4-5 cups chicken stock
3 Tbsp. shelled pistachio nuts
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Methods/steps
Melt butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes. Stir in saffron; cook 1 minute. Add rice; stir to coat with butter and onions. Add vermouth and 2 cups chicken stock. Simmer, covered, and add the remaining broth 1/2 cup at a time, until rice is tender. The entire cooking time is about 30 minutes. The rice should be bound lightly together with a little of the cooking liquid. Stir in pistachios and Parmesan and serve immediately.
