Risotto

While its cousins, like paella are still something new for us, risotto has become trendy repeatedly. Its a universal dish, suitable for many branches of the catering business and can be made with meat, vegetables of fruits of the sea. It is regarded by many as a typical bistro dish but is often served as a side dish in the most elegant restaurants. The current cult of rice is probably the result of the popularity of Asian cuisine in America, where entire gastronomic concepts are built around rice.
