Hey, you did get the Boulud book. How are you liking it? This sounds great. It's been so long since I made a risotto, but this sounds like just the thing for early spring.

Looks like a delicious recipe. I don't cook with asparagus often enough but if I start adding creme friche and lemon with it that may change. :)

Hey Julie,

Two posts in a row that use Creme Fraiche! Where do you find that stuff? I went to every grocery in the area a few weeks back when I wanted to make your carrot soup, and no one had it.
And I don't dare ask an employee around here, you wouldn't believe the ruckus I raised back when I was looking for file' powder.
This risotto looks delicious as well.

I have a very special bag of rice looking for a very special recipe. I think I'm getting closer when I see this. Love the asparagus and lemon.

I love risotto and this looks fantastic!

I've never used creme fraiche, I'm curious now!

I saw the first batch of asparagus at the market this weekend. What a wonderful recipe to celebrate the arrival of spring!

Oh, this looks wonderful!

I am in love with risotto as of late. Its creaminess is both filling and interesting. I can't wait to try this one, too!

I was thinking of making risotto this week. It's such a wonderful thing to eat and that photo is so beautiful. You captured the creamy texture that is the stuff of dreams. Love it! Sigh.

I usually just grill asparagus, but this is definitely next up.

Ditto on the queries for crème fraîche vendors. Whole Paycheck Foods, maybe?

And the shelf life of creme fraiche is .....? Did you use the same batch in each recipe?

I'm sure you didn't but from a continuity perspective it does look a bit suss!

Husband has been itching to try making risotto and I love asparagus. Maybe this weekend.

How's the recipe book coming along?
:)

This is a recipe that just screams springtime, although I'm looking out my window at a big snowstorm, in fact Calvin has a snow day off from school!!

Risotto is fast becoming one of my faves. Nourishing, easy to make, and reheats well. Nice post!

Yes! Spring time risotto! I anticipate it every year, and yours looks wonderfully creamy and delicious.

I've never been one for asparagus, but this does look like a gorgeous and delicious dish, Julie. Especially with the little shreds of lemon zest.

Mimi

Here I am, wondering what to make for dinner tonight, and you pull out one of my favorite Amanda Hesser recipes. Now I know what's cooking tonight!

Creme fraiche - it's just soured cream in French, and if you don't have any, add a squeeze of lemon juice to the ordinary stuff, works fine.
