Blitz-Risotto

Quick Risotto

When it's cold and wet outside, a freshly cooked risotto, with its creamy texture, is the perfect comfort food. But risotto requires patience, and sometimes there simply isn't time for it in everyday life. Nevertheless, no one has to miss out on this classic of Northern Italian cuisine. To avoid the long preparation time, we cook the risotto with fresh wild mushrooms in a pressure cooker. This reduces the cooking time to just 5 minutes. Furthermore, all the ingredients in the recipe are cooked gently, preserving most of the vitamins and minerals. Of course, our quick risotto recipe can also be creatively varied with other ingredients.
