I will! Keep you eye out on this forum page!

I now know why Jamie went to Portofino for his Honeymoon! It really is a beautiful place and would go there again in a heartbeat! The only thing is it is really pricey!

Rice grown especially in the north of Italy. Piemonte is the biggest producer of ricnd e, than Lombardia and Emilia Romagna. You can find some colture in the south of Italy.
There are many recipes of risotto. Generally with fish and mushrooms you don't have to add cheese (generally parmesan cheese) but at the end you can add butter to have it creamy.

Hi Rebecca,  Glad you had a nice time on your trip to Italy.  As for  your question about cheese/risotto-- What type of risotto did you have?  I'm thinking maybe since you were in Liguria it might have been a fish-based risotto.  In this case, you wouldn't use parmigiano or any other type of cheese.  In some regions it is not used when using fresh mushrooms, either.  Hope this helps.   

Helps alot thank you MammaGatta! It was a seafood risotto. I dont add as much cheese now in any of my risotto but add extra virgin olive oil which is alot healthier !
