I do not think I was ever a grown rice. Therefore, when I cut most cereals, rice was not one of those foods I craved.
Except when it came to risotto. I mean, come on, even the word "risotto" is fun to say (risotto, risotto, risotto ... try saying that 10 times fast!)
Once in a restaurant, I had a goat cheese and mushroom risotto which was amazing. Like, is it possible-that-can-this-marriage ??? well. So I recently tired to recreate this with rice version of cauliflower. And voila! Love is in the air again!
