    Hi Cat (and anyone else who's made this recipe), I have a question about the final product's appearance: When you look at the dish, do you say, "Hey, that's a green risotto!" or is it more, "Hey, that's a creamy white risotto with green bits mixed in!"? It's pretty important to me that the former be the case. Could you let me know before I actually prepare my variation of this recipe? Thanks!

    Chef - quick question - I've always made risotto as this recipe suggests -- slowly. But on a reality TV restaurant show, they're turning out risotto as an appetizer in 15 minutes! Do you think they're parboiling the rice first or is it possible to get that creamy texture by hurrying the absorption of the liquid?
