I Made That! Super Simple Pressure-Cooker Risotto

We love pressure cookers. We've written so many books on them, including THE GREAT BIG PRESSURE COOKER BOOK (the only book with recipes made for BOTH stove top and electric pressure cookers--which you can find here) and THE INSTANT POT BIBLE, a best-seller for North America's favorite brand of pressure cooker, with every recipe sized out for every size of the machine (and you can find that title here).

We're Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, veteran cookbook authors with several dozen (!) titles to our names. We've been making risotto in a pressure cooker since the days when we lived in a one-bedroom apartment in New York City. It was our go-to meal (with a bottle of red wine) after a night at the theater.

Creamy, rich, and delicious risotto in about ten minutes with no stirring! Imagine Risotto with Porcini Mushrooms, Leeks and Butternut Squash. Or Risotto with Fennel adn Asian Pears.

Join us in the kitchen! We'll tell you how to make perfect risotto with very little fuss.

About the Podcast

Cooking with Bruce and Mark
Fantastic recipes, culinary science, a little judgment, hysterical banter, love and laughs--you know, life.
Join us, Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough, for weekly episodes all about food, cooking, recipes, and maybe a little marital strife on air. After writing thirty-six cookbooks, we've got countless opinions and ideas on ingredients, recipes, the nature of the cookbook-writing business, and much more. If you've got a passion for food, we also hope to up your game once and a while and to make you laugh most of the time. Come along for the ride! There's plenty of room!
