Thank you Kay. This was my first time with my PC and Risotto also and it worked out wonderful. I looked at several risotto recipes and mixed and matched till I had something my family would like. Let me know what you think.Thanks MsM ! This looks like the perfect recipe to break in my new electric pressure cooker that I've never used. I've never made Risotto, or used a pressure cooker so it shows how much faith I have in your cooking.

There are some basics with Risotto:
a. Buy good Rice
B. Rice has no flavor so you need to add things to it. So saute whatever you want to put in the Rice. Butternut squash, mushrooms, onion, seafood, veggie, any combination. Coat the rice with the oil, I actually deglaze with some wine and add the Rice to get a good coating.
C. Use good stock, chicken, Beef, veggie, seafood. Match your flavoring items.
D. Heat the stock so that you don't cool your pan on each addition.
E. Slowly - Patience grasshopper - Patience
F. Taste often - get the texture you want - Al Dente for some - almost soupy for others.
I top mine with really good parm.
