Recipe Review

10th January 2011

aj12754 from Montclair, NJ

I really wasn't sure what to expect with this risotto and the flavor was certainly kind of unusual ... but NOT in a bad way. I followed the recipe as written ... right up to the point where I forgot the mascarpone. We liked it just fine without it -- but I will probably make this again to see what difference the addition of mascarpone makes.

Because there is currently a citrus glut in my kitchen, I served this with a baked salmon with citrus vinaigrette from Fine Cooking and the two dishes meshed well.

Still had a bunch of clementines to use us, so made a salad with romaine, clementine sections, and sliced avocado. Used -- again -- the Honey Vinaigrette from Ad Hoc at Home. It could have been citrus overkill, but we polished off every bit.

I liked that this recipe is easily halved to serve two people.
