Hayden’s Risotto Milanese recipe features in his book and is a celebration of fabulous Italian produce from Milan in the Lombardy region of Italy – A gastronomic hotspot!

Risotto Milanese would normally be served with the traditional dish of Osso Bucco, a delicious speciality of Lombard cuisine of cross-cut shanks of veal shanks, braised with white wine and broth.  It is often garnished with gremolata and serve that he discovered on his journey though Italy, gathering recipes for his book.

It is also delicious as a dish on its own and Hayden was very impressed with the pre-set recipe for risotto, he said

“Due to lockdown, I've been trialling the Hotmix PRO at home for the last few weeks, very impressed by the solid and powerful nature it really is built with the needs of the professional kitchen and chef in mind. I used one of the pre-set recipes and was very impressed by the Risotto in particular, creamy texture and the rice still had that right amount of al dente bite.”
