OK, OK, I admit it...I have been asked by so many people to put this up and today my clients asked me again, so I thought I'd better get on it! We had a lunch today and my stock standard to showcase the Induction is the risotto, so I've put up a few photos...thanks ladies! Now...remember that this is best done on the Induction...I am not sure it would translate very well to any other cooking medium and of course there are some safety issues involved with using a tea towel on a gas cooktop!
