How To Cook Corn and Green Onion Risotto   Comment On This Recipe
Try substituting pearled barley or farro in place of the rice for a more nutritional dish.
Ingredients:
4 1/2 cup(s) vegetable stock
1/2 cup(s) corn - fresh off the cob (Learn How)
3 tablespoon(s) olive oil
1 cup(s) rice (Arborio)
1 medium onion - peeled and small diced (Learn How)
1/2 cup(s) white wine
1 bunch of scallions - thiny sliced
3 tablespoon(s) Parmesan cheese (grated)
1 tablespoon(s) butter
1 pinch salt and pepper - to taste
Steps:
-Bring the vegetable stock almost to a boil in a small pot.
-Once it comes up to heat, take 1 1/2 cups out and add it to the corn in a small saucepan.
-Cook the corn mixture for at least 30 minutes at medium-low heat; strain off any liquid that remains.
-Meanwhile, heat up a large heavy bottom pan. (Learn How)
-When it is hot, add the oil and bring that up to temperature.
-Add the rice, and stir to coat all of the grains in oil.
-Keep stirring the rice slowly, toasting it to the point where you see the ends of the grains turning just barely brown.
-Add your onion and saute an additional 3 minutes.
-Add the wine. (Be careful of the steam.)
-Keep stirring because the wine will evaporate quickly.
-Once the wine evaporates, add 1 cup of your hot stock.
-Keep stirring! This is the key to making creamy risotto. Make a small pool in the middle of your risotto and feverishly stir that spot constantly.
-You want to knock the starch off of the rice. You should see the risotto getting creamy.
-Once that liquid has evaporated, keep adding more hot stock in small 2-ounce increments.
-Keep taste testing the grains of rice for doneness. You want rice to be tender but a little firm in the middle.
-Add the scallions and the corn.
-Once the perfect creaminess is obtained, add your cheese and butter.
-Season to taste.
