[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone! I did roast chicken and it was an awesome time.[/quote] Were you still able to relax and visit, or did you have to keep stirring the risotto??[/quote] I was wondering this…if not how do you keep it nice? I have always veered off risotto for parties for this reason.[/quote] Not the op but I recently served risotto for a dinner party. You can cook it 75% of the way in advance (so 3c of broth for example instead of the full 4), then put it into a thin layer on a baking sheet and into the fridge to stop the rice from cooking further. Then you just cook it in the final 25% cup of liquid right before serving. [/quote] I’m going to try this. (I’m not OP). I love risotto and always do it well when it’s just my family but have messed it up the few times I’ve tried to do it for company. I think the extra pressure or distraction makes me screw up the timing.[/quote]
