Fresh Crab and Pea Risotto
RECIPE COURTESY OF INA GARTEN
Level: Easy
Total: 50 min
Active: 45 min
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
6 to 8 cups good seafood stock (see Cook’s Note)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons good olive oil
1/2 cup small-diced shallots (2 large)
1/2 cup chopped fennel, cored
1/2 cup seeded and small-diced poblano pepper
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon saffron threads
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 cups Italian Arborio rice (10 ounces)
1 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
1/2 cup creme fraiche
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
16 ounces very good fresh lump crabmeat, picked through for shells
1 cup frozen peas, defrosted
Minced fresh chives and freshly grated lemon zest, for serving
Directions
Heat the stock in a medium saucepan and keep it simmering over low heat.
In a medium (10 to 11-inch) pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots, fennel, and poblano pepper and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the garlic, thyme, saffron, and red pepper flakes and cook for 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat all the grains with butter and oil. Add the wine and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes, until almost all the liquid has been absorbed. Add 1/2 cup of the simmering stock to the rice and cook, stirring frequently (see Cook’s Note). When the stock is almost completely absorbed, continue adding stock, 1/2 cup at a time, simmering the risotto until the stock is absorbed each time before adding more stock. Cook until the rice is al dente; it should take between 25 and 30 minutes.
When the rice is done, stir in the creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Fold in the crabmeat and peas and cook over low heat for 2 minutes, until the crabmeat is warmed through. Add just enough simmering stock to make the risotto moist and creamy. Serve hot in large, shallow bowls and sprinkle with chives and lemon zest.
Cook’s Note
I use either seafood stock from my fish store or canned Bar Harbor Seafood Stock. I find that using a 1/2-cup ladle for the stock makes it easy to see how much to add.

The reason why Italians don't put cheese with seafood, is because seafood has a very delicate flavor and cheese (especially Parmigiano, which is an Italian staple in their food) is very strong and overpowering which ruins the delicate flavor of seafood. Just incase you all were wondering.😋😋

Trap for young players! NOTE The size of her Dutch Oven…if you don't have the same size or similarly sized stock pot, then you need to reduce the ingredient quantity. This is the same for a lot of her recipes from this book. Cheers!

Why do you not add cheese to seafood? I'm really curious…

What substitute can be used instead of the creme fraiche? I can't seem to find it!

Ina I can see that you did not remove the skin off the poblano peppers. You have to charred them, steam them and peel 'em so you can remove the skin, because it is hard to digest. I think it's maybe the only pepper you have to make this procedure

much ado about nothing. by the time the risotto was cooked all the flavors from the other ingredients were cooked right out of it. Bland.

Turn to Jesus Christ! All have sinned and have fallen short of Gods glory, if you ever lied, or had sex before marriage you are in danger of hell fire and you need to stop your sin and follow Jesus Christ.

When the rice gets to “al dente” you can pour 1 cup of parmesan cheese (grated), makes the flavour much better
