Once you master the proper techniques needed to make risotto and pilaf, you’ll open the door to limitless possibilities for grain- and rice-based dishes. Under the guidance of Chef Robert Ramsey, we'll cover the differences between short- and long-grain rice, how to select the right grain for each method, and all the skills needed to make a fluffy pilaf or a creamy risotto. Each student will make one risotto and one pilaf: Classic Parmesan Risotto, Barley Risotto with Scallion Pesto, or Farro Risotto with Roasted Beets; as well as Vegetable Pilau, Pilaf with Cashews and Dried Fruit, or Basmati Chicken Pilaf.
