BACON APPLE RISOTTO
The beauty of this dish is it can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. A bit of savory, a touch of sweet and the perfect creaminess of the risotto make it a game-changer. Feel free to replace the consomme with chicken or vegetable broth if desired. You can also use white wine instead of red. -Evan Young, Studio City, CA

APPLE RISOTTO
A surprising main dish with the sharp taste of apples and cheese. The first time that I was served this by my dear friend, Claire, I couldn't get enough. I begged for the recipe, made it the next evening, and feel NO guilt over eating it all! Served with steamed asparagus and a nice crisp white wine, it is the perfect meal for friends and family.

APPLE AND PROVOLONE RISOTTO
Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring Moscato d'Asti to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium and cook until wine is syrupy, golden and reduced to 1/3 cup, about 15 minutes. In a large saucepan, combine onion, 1 tablespoon butter, oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 7 minutes. Add apples; cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes more. Add rice; cook, stirring frequently, until rice is translucent, about 4 minutes. Add Prosecco, reduce heat to medium-low and cook until liquid is mostly evaporated, then add 1/2 cup broth. Cook, stirring constantly, until broth is mostly absorbed. Continue adding broth in 1/2 cupfuls, stirring constantly, and allowing each addition to mostly absorb before adding the next, until rice is tender yet firm to the bite (you may have broth left over). Remove pan from heat. Stir in remaining tablespoon butter, cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt and generous pinch pepper, then cover and let stand 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve immediately, drizzled with Moscato syrup.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your risotto. Choose a good quality arborio rice, a flavorful broth, and fresh vegetables and herbs.
- Toast the rice before adding the liquid. This will help the rice absorb the flavors of the other ingredients and give it a slightly nutty flavor.
- Add the liquid gradually. This will help the rice cook evenly and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Stir the risotto frequently. This will help prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and will also help release the starch from the rice, which will give the risotto its creamy texture.
- Don't overcook the risotto. It should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
- Season the risotto to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to your liking.
- Serve the risotto immediately. It's best enjoyed fresh out of the pot.
