Do you need help in your kitchen?

PEELING ONIONS MAKES YOU CRY?

Leave the onions in the fridge for 20-30 minutes before peeling. Never cry again.

IT’S A SECRET…

When cooking a risotto, add the hot vegetable broth gradually and not from the beginning. As the boiling comes to an end, reduce the amount of broth so that the risotto won’t over-cook. The risotto must be firm, “al-dente” as the Italians say.
