recipes using vanilla



Lemon and Rosemary Risotto


4 cups (or more) organic chicken stock
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup Arborio rice
1/4 cup minced fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1/4 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Extract
1/2 cup (2 ounces) grated fresh Parmesan cheese

Heat the chicken stock in a large microwave-safe measuring cup for 4 minutes on High. Set aside.

Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the rice and stir to coat. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add 4 cups of the stock a little at a time, stirring constantly and cooking until the stock is absorbed for each addition. This will take approximately 30 to 40 minutes. The risotto will be creamy and yield to a gently bite when done.

Stir in the parsley, rosemary, lemon extract, Parmesan cheese and enough of the remaining stock to maintain a creamy consistency.

Serves 4

It normally takes five pounds of uncured, "green" vanilla beans to produce one pound of cured vanilla beans.
