rice + cheese is weird for me conceptually. unless it's paneer. potatoes and cheese and pasta and cheese--there's more surface area to the starch to absorb the cheese, maybe?

i don't like risotto either! like i can eat it but, it's so wet and sloppy

everyone would rather be eating curry and basmati beause indian food is objectively better than italian food

I don't know why risotto hasn't joined the ranks of 'dated' food such as rice pudding, bread and butter pudding and fondue.

I like risotto fine ftr it's just kinda...arborio is actually not particularly good rice (that's why you gotta force a whole lotta liquid & flavor into it to really be able to do much with it) and a small scoop of risotto goes a long way toward satisfying your need for the dish. whereas as a good pilao you can really get messy w/

i am gonna make chicken curry and have brown basmati, like right now

i am a racist! i am limited by my ethnic frame of reference for food.
i made some chicken korma last week that was amazing, if i do say so myself.
― horseshoe, Sunday, 6 November 2011 21:48 (twelve years ago) link
ate it with basmati, natch.
I don't think I've ever bought a bag of basmati rice, it just looks so long and loose, you can't get a handle on it
― ASPIE Rocky (dayo), Sunday, 6 November 2011 21:48 (twelve years ago) link
because food critics get a boner for it & also you can really present the shit out of a risotto. if I'm having company I'll even make a killer risotto, a good risotto with some roasted asparagus or other vegetables looks badass on a good plate and is a good food for slow eating and conversation. anybody who actually fills a bowl w/risotto and eats it is totally dumb however

? arborio is a "good rice" for the things that it is used for, ie risotto. its not a "good rice" to eat standalone but if thats how youre comparing it youre stacking the deck

man I can't get down with "rice and cheese is weird" though. when I was poor a bowl of rice with grated cheese & peanuts was my go-to fill-me-up-and-keep-me-going dish

I do like a good risotto though. I just feel a bit dated eating it.

maybe you feel dated eating risotto because it is a classic italian dish that ppl have been eating for literally hundreds of years

Risotto and rice pudding both rule so hard. <3 Went with Basmati for the poll answer btw.

yeah it is weird to call things people have eaten forever, like risotto and rice pudding, dated

maybe I just haven't had the RIGHT risotto. I'm not dissing. It just hold the same places in my mind as what a lot of people see as 'dated'. Maybe it's due to the popularity of people doing it themselves (risotto being notoriously hard to perfect) and not being presented with the opportunity of eating it that often.
― owenf, Sunday, 6 November 2011 21:56 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, it's that 80's/90's consistency isn't it?
it's one of those foods that's like, one people make when they want to do cooking

its true, risotto is done by a lot of home chefs, usually bad, it can be hard to get right. i promise you guys it is really good! i was just trolling by saying arborio btw, my favorite kind of rice is basmati
