SMOKED SALMON RISOTTO



Smoked Salmon Risotto image

I've finally been introduced to risotto, and am obsessed with it ... and I had some smoked salmon that needed to be used up. I found this recipe at http://culinariaitalia.wordpress.com (it's important to give credit where credit is due!). Boy, did this hit the spot .... this was so simple, and so very, very delicious.

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups vegetable stock or 6 cups chicken broth
3 tablespoons butter
1 small onion (or use any combination of leeks, shallots, and onions that pleases you)
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dill weed (I used dried dill, and probably more than a teaspoon)
8 ounces smoked salmon
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated & of highest possible quality

Steps:

  • Dice the onion(s) into small dice. Saute in 1 butter until golden.
  • Add rice and stir thoroughly to coat; cook over medium-high heat for about two minutes.
  • Add the wine, salt and dill to the rice/onion mixture.
  • Heat vegetable stock in a separate pot. Using a large soup ladle, add one ladleful to the rice at a time, stirring constantly in between additions. (This is somewhere between half a cup and a cup of stock.) Wait until the liquid is absorbed before adding the next ladleful. The whole process of adding liquid should take anywhere from 20-30 minutes.
  • Take half of the smoked salmon and chop it fine. Add to remaining butter and cream thoroughly. Take the other half of the smoked salmon and coarsely chop it.
  • About two minutes before the rice has finished cooking, add the butter/salmon mixture and the coarsely chopped salmon. Stir for another two minutes, until thoroughly incorporated and creamy. Add the parmesan and stir for another minute or two.

SMOKED SALMON RISOTTO W/ ROSSO CREMA



SMOKED SALMON RISOTTO W/ ROSSO CREMA image

Categories     Fish     Rice     Sauté     Vegetarian

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 tbsp Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided use
2 shallots, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup Arborio rice
½ cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken broth, simmering on stove top
½ cup whipping cream
2 ½ tbsp fresh basil, chopped
1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp white pepper
10 oz smoked salmon chopped into 1 ½" pieces
For Rosso Crema:
1 tbsp Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 red bell pepper, seeded, stemmed and diced
1 shallot, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp dry white wine
2 tsp smoked paprika
3 tbsp whipping cream
½ tsp salt
Garnish with ¼ cup fresh Italian parsley, finely minced

Steps:

  • 1. Make Rosso Crema by heating oil in small skillet and sauté red bell pepper, shallot and garlic and cook and stir for five minutes. Add wine, stir and break up any bits sticking to skillet. Next add paprika, cream and salt, simmer over low for 12 minutes. Puree ingredients in food processor and return to skillet to keep warm. 2. Heat 1 tablespoon Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil in medium skillet and sauté shallots and garlic for 3 minutes. Add rice and stir and sauté for 3 more minutes. Add wine and cook and stir until liquid is fully absorbed. Add broth, ½ cup at a time, and cook and stir until liquid is absorbed. Entire cooking time is approximately 40 minutes. 3. Stir in cream, remaining tablespoon olive oil, basil, chives, Parmesan cheese and salmon into risotto, stirring well to incorporate and combine. 4. Place warm Rosso Crema in squeeze bottle. 5. Place equivalent portions of Smoked Salmon Risotto in each of four serving dishes, decoratively swirl Rosso Crema on top of each serving. Garnish with parsley and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Arborio or Carnaroli rice are the best choices for risotto, as they have a high starch content that helps create a creamy texture.
  • Toast the rice: Toasting the rice before adding the liquid helps to bring out its flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add the liquid gradually: Add the chicken broth or white wine in small increments, stirring constantly, to allow the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming too soupy.
  • Stir constantly: Stirring the risotto constantly helps to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan and becoming scorched.
  • Cook until the rice is al dente: The rice should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. This usually takes about 18-20 minutes.
  • Add the salmon and vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming tough.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or basil add a nice pop of color and flavor to the risotto.

Conclusion:

Salmon risotto is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner. It is relatively easy to make, but it does require some patience and attention to detail. By following the tips above, you can create a creamy, flavorful risotto that is sure to impress your guests.
