TRUFFLED LOBSTER RISOTTO

What could be better than the creamy smoothness of risotto with a hint of truffle combined with the elegance of lobster. If you need, or want, a show-off entree this is perfect for guests or that romantic dinner. There seems to be alot to this recipe but the result is worth it. I have prepared this using both warm and cold water lobster tails and I prefer the cold for its sweetness. For the truffle oil I have only used the black variety.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Start with the freshest lobster, arborio rice, and vegetables you can find. The better the ingredients, the better the risotto will be.
  • Toast the rice: This step helps to develop the rice's flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Cook the rice slowly: Risotto is a slow-cooked dish. Be patient and stir the rice frequently so that it cooks evenly.
  • Add the liquid gradually: Don't add all of the liquid at once. Add it in small increments, stirring constantly, until the rice is cooked through.
  • Use a good quality truffle oil: Truffle oil is the key to this dish. Make sure to use a good quality oil that has a strong truffle flavor.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Garnish the risotto with fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
