Steps:
- Set the oven to 450F
- Put the corn kernels on a baking sheet and toss with 2 Tbsp of olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Roast for 5 to 7 minutes, and then put the pan under the broiler for about 2 minutes, watching carefully, until they get just slightly charred. Set the corn aside. You want about a heaping cup of roasted kernels for the risotto.
- Heat the stock and 2 cups of water to just under a simmer in a small saucepan. Break the reserved corn cob in two, and add it as well. Add the saffron threads, crushing them between your fingers as you add them to the stock. Season the stock with 1/2 tsp of salt.
- Heat the final Tbsp of olive oil and the butter in a heavy bottomed stock pot. Add the onion and the shallot and saute until they are softened and translucent.
- Add the rice and stir to coat, for another minute.
- Add the wine to the pot and stir while it is absorbed, another minute and a half or so.
- Start adding the stock to the rice, a ladle at a time, stirring almost constantly, and letting each addition of stock get fully absorbed before the next addition. The pot should be kept at a gentle simmer at all times.
- After 2 or 3 ladles of stock have been absorbed, add in 1/2 cup of the corn. Keep stirring and adding stock, making sure your pot is simmering and the rice isn't sticking to the bottom of the pan, especially toward the end of the cooking. The whole process is going to take about 30 minutes.
- After about 25 minutes, taste the rice to see if it is tender. You may not use the whole amount of stock. When the rice is tender, add in the rest of the corn, the cheeses, and the fresh thyme. Season with lots of fresh cracked black pepper. Mix everything in well, and then taste again to check the seasonings. Add a little more stock if the risotto seems dry.
- Serve immediately with more Parmesan cheese on the side.
CORN AND SAFFRON RISOTTO
Steps:
- Grate two cobs of corn with the help of a grater. Leave the grated corn with the corn milk in a bowl aside until we are ready to use it. With the remaining one cob, carefully remove the corn kernels with the help of a knife. Leave that also aside.
- Take two tbsp of warm water in a cup, stir in the saffron strands. Mix it with a spoon. Leave it aside.
- Take the cobs (kernels removed) and about 4 cups of water in a pot and boil it for few minutes in medium to high heat and then let it simmer on low while we make the risotto.
- In a pan, heat the butter. Then add the garlic and chopped onions. Cook it until onions are translucent. Then add in the rice.
- Sauté it for few minutes until rice looks translucent. After couple of minutes, add the white wine. Let it get absorbed by the rice. Once all the wine has been absorbed slowly, add ladle full of corn stock that's simmering on the side. Make sure you keep stirring. Rice should not stick to the pan.
- Again, let the liquid get absorbed completely before adding more corn stock. After half of the the corn stock is added, once the liquid is absorbed add the grated corn mixture along with corn kernels.
- Finish the cooking with remaining stock and cook it until the rice looks done but has slight al dente texture to it. Add salt and black pepper too.
- Turn off the heat. Immediately add the parmesan and saffron water to it. Mix it well. Cover it for few minutes.
- Open the lid of the pan, mix in some chopped basil and crème fraiche.
- Keep some basil for garnishing. Risotto is best served immediately after its done.
RED PEPPER RISOTTO
As this stunning risotto simmers, it takes on a beautiful red hue from the peppers. If you choose to use the saffron the risotto will have an added dimension of flavor and an even more beautiful color.

Steps:
- Bring the stock to a simmer in a saucepan, with a ladle nearby. Season generously with salt.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, wide, heavy skillet or saucepan over medium heat and add the onions or shallots. Cook gently until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, peppers, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the peppers are limp and fragrant, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the rice and stir over medium heat until the grains are separate and beginning to crackle, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the wine and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. The wine should bubble, but not too quickly. You want some of the flavor to cook into the rice before it evaporates. When the wine has just about evaporated, stir in a ladleful or two of the simmering stock (about 1/2 cup), enough to just cover the rice. The stock should bubble slowly (adjust heat accordingly). Rub the saffron threads between your fingers and add to the rice. Cook, stirring often, until the stock is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock and continue to cook in this fashion, not too fast and not too slowly, stirring often and adding more stock when the rice is almost dry, for 25 minutes, until the rice is cooked through but still a little chewy. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- When the rice is cooked through, add a generous amount of freshly ground pepper, and stir in another half cup of stock, the Parmesan and the herbs. Remove from the heat. The rice should be creamy; if it isn't, add a little more stock. Stir once, taste and adjust seasonings, and serve.

- In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil over moderately high heat. Lower the heat to keep the stock at a bare simmer.
- Meanwhile, in a large, heavy saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in the olive oil. Add the shallots and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 4 minutes. Raise the heat to high, add the corn and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 12 minutes. Add the rice and stir until the grains are thoroughly coated with fat, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in the wine and continue stirring until most of the wine has evaporated.
- Add 1 cup of the simmering stock to the rice and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the stock has been absorbed. Continue adding stock, 1 cup at a time, stirring the risotto until the stock is absorbed before adding more; the risotto is done when the rice is just tender and the sauce is creamy, about 22 minutes. Stir in the Parmigiano-Reggiano, parsley and the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Season with salt and pepper and serve at once.
