Do you heat the broth, Christine? That's how I was taught, and what I do,
but I've heard others don't do it. That may also be the problem that turned
Jill's risotto experience awry - wrong rice and cold broth.

Yes, I do. That was one thing that was stressed, in what I have
read.. It should be simmering, on the stove, ready to be added. And
it should be added only after the previous addition has been totally
absorbed in the developing risotto.

Then again, maybe she just doesn't like risotto.
Yeah, that is a possibility...

Still...I am one of those people that doesn't like to make
comparisons, til I have actually had it when it was made well and
properly. This goes for a lot of dished, not just risotto. But
risotto that is not made well, can be awful.... I know this, cause I
have done it!!!
