Risotto Allo Zafferano

I may be known for my pasta dishes, but I make a mean risotto, too! In fact, in my latest cookbook, The Art of Italian Cooking, I have three risotto recipes, a mix of classics and one Pasta Queen original (hint: It’s inspired by my love for Cacio e Pepe!). What I enjoy about risotto is that once you master the process, you can get really inventive with the flavors you use. This Saffron Risotto is a classic from Milan, it’s the perfect risotto recipe to start with!
