What happens if you use regular rice for risotto?

[DreamingPilgrim]

Hey fellas!! I'm pondering over something interesting lately. What happens if you swap out regular rice for risotto? I mean, we all know risotto typically calls for Arborio rice, but would regular rice work just as well? Any experiences or tips to share? Hit me up please! I'm all ears!

Regular rice can work, but it won't give you the creamy texture of Arborio rice. Risotto might be less creamy and have a different texture. It's worth trying if you're in a pinch, though!

Hey! Using regular rice for risotto might not give you the creaminess you're looking for. Risotto typically requires arborio rice, which has a high starch content, creating that signature creamy texture. But hey, experimenting is part of the fun! You might discover a delicious twist on the classic dish!
