Creamy Parmesan and Mascarpone Risotto

Recipe by Philippe Etchebest

A classic Italian risotto, quick and economical, prepared in a single pot. Arborio rice becomes creamy thanks to the gradual addition of broth, a splash of white wine and a touch of mascarpone, then is lifted with parmesan and a drizzle of lime juice for an unexpected freshness. Ideal for a convivial weekday dinner.

Upside Down Panettone

Upside Down Panettone

A fluffy, buttery, fruit‑laden panettone that’s baked upside down for extra height. The recipe combines a brioche‑style enriched dough with a sourdough starter, butter, egg yolks, and candied fruit, then hangs the loaf upside down after baking so it stretches even more. The result is a light, airy holiday bread with big open holes and a fragrant hint of red mandarin essential oil.
