My first effort at the risotto ended up really soupy too - so I cooked it for an extra 5 minutes in the TMX, and it ended up like a cross between concrete and glue ....... tasty though!  I rang my consultant (who sounds more helpful than yours heastonfan ;D) and she told me to let it sit in the thermoserver for a few minutes, rather than cooking it for longer - and ever since then, perfect risotto  ;D

Ha ha Cream Puff  :D :D :D
Indeed! However I must say that no GL is going to measure up with the knowledge, dedication and selflessness that we are lucky to get from the lovely people on this forum  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Hi everyone,
Thanks for all your replies - you are all so helpful! I made the mushroom risotto from the EDC using the butterfly and it worked out really well. There was no sticking/browning at all. It ended up being more soupy looking than the pumpkin risotto I made but I thought what the heck and went ahead and tipped it out into a bowl and let it sit for a bit and the liquid was soon soaked up. I will definitely be using the butterfly whenever I make risotto from now on.

Gabry, I'd get yourself another consultant if I were you. The woman who sold me my tmx is nothing compared with the consultant i have now, who is so helpful. If you were in Sydney, I'd refer you to her - she is wonderful.
