He picked 64 of them today and left the rest to continue to grow. What a lucky duck!

I love risotto, but making it can be such a pain. As for the rice used, they're always finding a newer and better rice for risotto lol I still use arborio, but maybe I need to branch out :)Christo Gonzaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07593498830764421725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11197835.post-12796087467229318122011-04-28T10:47:22.944-04:002011-04-28T10:47:22.944-04:00The Mom Chef has left a new comment on your post &...The Mom Chef has left a new comment on your post "lots to look at not much to say plenty to do so le...": <br /><br />I adore risotto. I also just recently made a risotto with a poached egg on top and it was love at first taste. Yes, that's a perfect breakfast. <br /><br />I'll need to try that new rice you introduced me to!

Nice to see your post - and to get such a great tip. The first time I made risotto (not knowing a darned thing about it) it turned out perfectly. I was never able to replicate that first effort, and now I wonder if it was the rice.

Is that a morel I see peeking out? I love them, used to forage for them when I lived in Michigan. This is the time of year for them. They make any dish taste divine!
