W/C 1st May 2023I am making Risotto for tea. In fact it is about the last thing I said on this weeks episode of TFM so it must be true. And just to confirm it is definitely for tea, because supper is a cheeky biscuit or two whilst watching the telly and dinner is long since in the past.There is a magic moment when you are making risotto and that is point when you add the wine. First up is the frying of the onion, normally in a knob of butter, and once that is softened and golden you are ready to add in the rice. After about a minute or so on a medium to high heat the rice will start to take on a translucent character, and that is the signal for a good slug of the ol' vino.Three senses are now on overdrive as simultaneously you get the smell, the sizzle and the sight of the liquid mixing with the onion and rice. It's a magic moment and I think it's known as 'the sigh' in Italian. I can't promise that is 100% true (though I am sure I read it has a name in Italian) but I am going to go with it because I think it's perfect.Stay safe.King - MarillionTherapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.
