  • On the risotto front, made a pea, asparagus and mint risotto at the weekend. Based it on a Gordon Ramsay pea and mint recipe. Risotto was delicious.

    Part of the recipe was a mint oil - wash and pat dry mint leaves, place in 80degree oven for three hours and then put dried mint in oil and heat on low for an hour, and then filter through muslin. This was an utter fucking waste of time- it made a green oil but had barely any discernible mint flavour. The mint sprig garnish had more impact.

    tl;dr

    Made awesome risotto, wasted time making mint oil

  • That sounds really weird - I suppose it's trying to turbocharge the infusion. Did I think you have a Thermomix? Wonder if you could use that or kilner jar and whack it in the dishwasher?
