To prepare this simple dish, you need a good quality brand like arborio rice.
The Italian rice is recognized as a quality one and this fact surely motivates Italian food lovers to look for other ways to prepare this cereal.

This Saffron rice recipe is known in Italy milanese , an authentic Italian dish, as it's typical from Milan city and surrounds.
The saffron gives this strong colour and a special taste. |
A mushroom risotto recipe can be done also for a special occasion. It's possible to use the dried porcini that add that special flavour. You can also use different kinds of mushrooms, fresh or dried. I usually use garlic to cook mushrooms, as they match well together. |
