I served my Spring Green Risotto with Baked Salmon -- the perfect dinner for me :)
Does anyone have any ideas for the leftover mascarpone cheese? It is so good, but I am not sure what to do with it...??

Spring Green Risotto
Spring Green Risotto was chosen by Kimberly from Indulge & Enjoy as this weeks assignment with the Barefoot Bloggers! This risotto is outstanding!! I must admit this was my first attempt at making risotto, I think I always thought it was too time consuming. I actually enjoyed the whole process. I was lucky enough to still have some of my homemade chicken stock (Ina's recipe) that I made this past winter, so I am sure that added to all the wonderful flavors in this dish. My DH said this is definitely a REPEAT!!

Looks delicious. I want to try it. I have never made risotto, although I like it. Love & blessings from NC!
ReplyDeleteI loved the risotto too. As to what to do with the leftover mascarpone, put it under the breast skin of Cornish hens. I just posted the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI made this the other night and posted about it too!

So glad you enjoyed it. Risotto is one of my favorite dishes!
ReplyDeleteThe mascarpone can be used a lot like cream cheese. I would use it as a creamy spread on toast with some strawberries. or for a frosting. or maybe mix some roasted garlic and herbs for a spread. or make tiramisu. mmmm so many uses for mascarpone.
ReplyDeleteKendra, This risotto looks wonderful. And pairing it with salmon is yummy!

Mascarpone- flavor it with lemon juice and lemon rind and mix with powered sugar. Yummy lemon icing, filling. Make muffins or cupcakes and put a dollop in the batter when you put it in the muffin tins and bake. Muffins with a great filling. Yummy!
