Season with the salt and pepper. Add the hot stock 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly, after each addition, until the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding the stock and stirring to release the starch from the rice. Begin to check the rice for doneness after 18 minutes, it should be al dente.

• Add 2 cups boiling water and adjust the heat to a brisk simmer. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring well with a wooden spoon every minute or so.
• When the liquid is absorbed, add remaining 1 cup water and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the rice is cooked, but the grains are still firm. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding another splash of water if necessary to loosen the mixture. Turn off the heat, stir in the pecorino and 2 more tablespoons olive oil.

TOMATO AND BACON RISOTTO WITH GULF SHRIMP

Steps:

• Combine the chicken stock and 6 cups water in a medium saucepan and keep warm over low heat on the back burner.
• Heat a wide-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and the remaining 2 tablespoons water to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the water evaporates and the bacon begins to sizzle. When the bacon is well browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Add the onions to the drippings in the pan and saute until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook 1 minute more. Deglaze the pan with the wine and stir well. Simmer, stirring often, until the all the wine has been absorbed by the rice, about 3 minutes.
• Make the first addition of chicken stock: Ladle enough of the heated stock into the pan to cover the rice completely and season with some salt. Stir it into the rice. Adjust the heat if needed so that the pan remains at a light simmer. Cook, stirring constantly, until the level of chicken stock falls below the surface of the rice. Add more stock so that the rice is once again just covered and season with some salt. Repeat this process until the rice is creamy and tender, 25 to 30 minutes; it should take approximately 4 additions of stock to fully cook the rice.
• When the rice is done add the tomatoes and cook until heated through and they start to break down, 2 to 3 minutes. Once the mixture comes to a bubble, add the shrimp. Stir well to incorporate and continue cooking until the rice is thickened and the shrimp are cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and add the butter. Stir vigorously until incorporated, and then add most of the bacon and basil, reserving some for garnish. Stir until incorporated, then spoon immediately into bowls, garnish and serve.
