Risotto with Green Vegetables
After we've taken the risotto out of the oven, we let it rest for a minute. This point in the process is called the "mantecatura", which means to skim. We mix in the cheese, which not only gives it extra flavour and creaminess, but also smoothens the texture of the risotto.
