risotto with sausage and cranberry beans, make risotto , you absolutely must use a specific type of rice called arborio rice (carnaroli and vialone nano are also used, some say superior, but are more difficult to find). these types of rice release starch when stirred in a liquid; it is this process which makes risotto, otherwise you just have a starchy mess of mush. these types of rice are identified by their fat round grains and pearly appearance. they can be used to make other sorts of rice dishes, such as pilaf, but other types of rice cannot be used for risotto. arborio is no longer that much of a specialty product; it can be found in most large, well-stocked grocery stores in the italian section. or sometimes, misguidedly, in the asian section., okay , so now we have the rice. you will also need some good, low-salt stock or broth - it should be low-salt not for health reasons, but because a good deal of it will evaporate, leaving its salt behind, and i like to have more control over the salt in a dish. it can be homemade, but i m not going to be a snob about it because, in truth, we go through gallons of store-bought stock in this household and i don tsp see that changing anytime soon. furthermore, risotto is actually a dish which can be whipped up out of thin air when it seems as though you have nothing to eat, as long as you have butter, rice, stock, maybe a few herbs, and some leftover parmesan. i like the kind of stock purchased in tetrapak cartons, because they are resealable and can be put in the fridge and used as needed. if you really want to use homemade but you don tsp have time to make stock or don tsp like the aroma of roasting bones in your house (i don tsp blame you), you can buy really great stock at north market poultry and game - it is expensive, but can be diluted with a 2- or 3-to-1 ratio of water to stock, so it stretches. my general guideline is to plan on 1/4 cup dry rice per person, and about 4 cups of stock to 1 cup of rice. of course, this isn tsp exact and will vary depending on your elevation and the phases of the moon, but it s a good place to start. i usually just use 4 cups of stock and then dilute with water or wine (or sometimes beer, if that s all i have) if i feel i m going to run out., well, we have rice and stock covered, now we just need our setup: place the stock in a saucepan on your rear burner, bring to a simmer, and leave it there with a 6-8 oz ladle in, and place a large, wide saute pan (must be really large, plan that your rice will at least quadruple in size) or dutch oven on the burner in front. get out your favorite wooden spoon and flex your stirring arm., nice thing about using sausage is it s so full of flavor you can leave out the usual onion/garlic/shallot/celery nonsense if you re tired and don tsp feel like chopping. furthermore, sausage goes from the freezer to the pan without suffering too much. okay, let s go, risotto with sausage and cranberry beans - serves 4, links italian sausage , or 1 lb bulk (or hot, or a combination - definitely with some fennel), casings removed, cooked cranberry beans or 1 can white beans, drained, arborio rice, beef , chicken or vegetable stock, butter, freshly, finely grated parmesan cheese , plus more for garnish, an oz) flat-leaf parsley, chopped finely, lemon juice , or juice from 1/2 lemon, salt and black pepper to taste, red pepper flakes to taste, optional, good balsamic vinegar , optional

keep in mind that you can really vary the ingredients. the only thing to be cautious about is avoiding certain types of vegetables that tend to produce bitter-tasting stock., more onions , quartered. (don tsp bother taking off the skin.) i think yellow onions are nicest for stock, and it s best to have at least 1 yellow, but you can also use a combination including white and red. i use up to about 5 onions., carrots , including their tops (but not the carrot greens), chopped into a few pieces., more leeks (nice but not required), chopped and washed, garlic cloves, in their skin, crushed with the side of a knife blade, celery ribs, coarsely chopped, parsley sprigs, fresh thyme (or dry , if you don tsp have fresh), fresh sage leaves (or some dry, if you haven tsp got fresh), fresh marjoram or oregano sprigs, bay leaves, black peppercorns, sea salt to taste, cold, filtered water, potato, sliced, mushrooms, sliced, more beets (give excellent flavor and color to a vegetarian stock in recipes like french onion soup that often call for beef broth), meat-eaters variation : chicken carcass and other parts (i buy rotisserie chicken, use the meat, and then make stocks from the bones and carcass), avoid adding the following vegetables to stocks, as they tend to make them bitter, broccoli , cabbage, and other cruciferous vegetables, zucchini and other squash

limes (including zest), tequila, red pepper flakes, great northern beans (3 16-oz cans will work ok if you don tsp want to use dry beans), boneless skinless chicken breast, onions chopped, garlic chopped, olive oil, green chiles, cumin, cayenne pepper divided, defatted chicken stock (canned will work all right), grated monterey jack cheese, sour cream, chopped fresh green onions

prepared nopales (dona maria is my favorite), pork stew meat , cubed up into bite-size bits. if you don tsp like pork then use beef or possibly chicken. also just as yummie without any meat at all., your favorite salsa, a little fresh minced garlic to taste (i like a little more than a little!)

there is a lot of fat and gristle to trim away from a chuck roast, so don tsp be surprised if you trim off up to 1 1/2 lb. we prefer the flavor of guinness draught in this stew (with guinness extra stout a close second), but you can substitute another brand of stout or a dark ale, such as rogue chocolate stout or newcastle brown ale., boneless beef chuck roast (3 to 3 1/2 lb), trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks, salt and ground black pepper, vegetable oil, onions , minced, tomato paste, garlic cloves , minced or pressed through a garlic press (about 2 tsp), unbleached all-purpose flour, low-sodium chicken broth, guinness draught (see note ), minced fresh thyme leaves , or 1 tsp dried, bay leaves, dark brown sugar, red bliss potatoes (about 5 medium), scrubbed and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks, carrots , parsnips, or a combination, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks, minced fresh parsley leaves
