Analyzing cooking steps...
Arborio rice is essential for its high starch content, which creates the classic creamy texture.
Never add cold stock to the rice; it must be warm to ensure the rice cooks evenly and releases starch.
Use a tall pot as the rice will double in size during the cooking process.
Stirring is crucial as it helps the rice release its starch into the liquid.
Patience is a virtue—adding stock too quickly will result in unevenly cooked rice or a soupy mess.
