Preparation |
How to make the Risotto with Aromatic Herbs and Prosciutto di Parma ®:
Finely chop the onion. Melt the butter with the oil in a large casserole
over medium heat, saute the onion, then add the rice, the aromatic
herbs, and lemon peel. Slowly add the broth, a little at a time,
stirring constantly. The broth should bubble gently as it settles into
the risotto. Continue adding the broth a little at a time and stirring,
lowering the heat if necessary.
Just
five minutes before the risotto is ready, add Prosciutto di Parma ®,
heavy cream and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. Salt to taste. Serve hot.
