Risotto, a creamy rice dish, originated in Northern Italy, particularly in the Lombardy region, during the Middle Ages. The introduction of rice cultivation to Italy through Arab influence laid the groundwork for its development. Over time, regional variations emerged, incorporating local ingredients like seafood along the Italian coast, leading to the creation of variations like Risotto de Camarão.

Risoto de Camarão offers a symphony of flavors, primarily savory with a delicate sweetness from the shrimp. The creamy texture enhances the overall taste experience.
The dish typically features the briny sweetness of shrimp combined with the richness of Arborio rice cooked in broth. White wine adds acidity and depth, while Parmesan cheese contributes a salty, umami element and creamy texture. Aromatics like onion and garlic infuse the risotto with a subtle pungency, and herbs such as parsley or chives provide freshness and herbaceous notes. Lemon juice is often added to brighten the flavors and cut through the richness.

Use High-Quality Rice
Arborio rice is the most commonly used type for risotto due to its high starch content, which contributes to the creamy texture. Carnaroli rice is also a good choice, offering a slightly firmer texture.
Warm Broth is Key
Always use warm broth when adding it to the rice. Cold broth will lower the temperature and prevent the rice from cooking evenly.
Stir Frequently
Stirring the rice frequently releases starch and creates the signature creamy texture of risotto. But don't over stir, the aim is to agitate, not mash the rice.
Cook Shrimp Separately
Searing or sautéing the shrimp separately prevents it from overcooking and ensures a tender, flavorful result. Add it to the risotto towards the end of cooking to maintain its texture.
