Cooking tips

  • When making sour butter, add the reduced wine liquid to the butter in small amounts to prevent separation and ensure a smooth emulsion.
  • Toasting the rice without oil enhances its nutty aroma and improves stock absorption.
  • Always keep the stock for risotto hot to maintain cooking temperature and ensure uninterrupted cooking.
  • Before the final emulsification, covering with a lid to slightly lower the temperature helps the starch viscosity develop, resulting in a more stable consistency.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a clean, refined, authentic Italian risotto without greasiness.
  • Those who want to recreate restaurant-quality flavor at home using the sour butter technique.
  • Those who want to master the traditional theory of risotto, from toasting rice to mantecatura.
