Chile infused risotto with roasted rutabaga
Roast
Italian cuisine


Roasting
I was making a chile paste and soaking Guajillo chiles in hot water to soften them. I didn't want to throw out the soaking water that was left, now a rich brown color and full of smoky chilie flavors, so I saved it. A few days later I was thinking about making risotto and thought, hey, instead of stock, I'll use the chile "tea". A quickly made up another batch to bring the total amount to 5 cups and proceeded to make risotto.
