How to Make the Perfect Creamy Risotto

Learn how to make a classic creamy risotto. This Italian rice dish is delicious and uses special rice (arborio or carnaroli), which is high in starches to create the creamiest consistency. The risotto is flavored with white wine, freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano, and fresh herbs! Pair this with seafood, beef, pork, grilled chicken, or your favorite vegetables. :)
