Duck Risotto Night

11/28/2015

I had a plea for duck leg risotto. First we rendered the duck legs in their own fat, discarding most of the fat. We sautéed local chanterelle mushrooms in local butter, and set them aside. Then we fried the risotto rice in butter and duck leg crispies, deglazing with a local white wine. Finally, we cooked the risotto in giblet stock leftover from Thanksgiving. Finish with peas and grated Parmesan cheese. YUM!!

Special thanks to Sylvia Hanratty for schooling us!! Also, we use their wood risotto stirring spoon for everything!

Thanks Hanratty Family!!

I'm an applied-math-research Ph.D. and serial startup founder. I am a recognized computer security expert, fortunate to join the ranks of many, great CTO's. I've founded and seed-funded multiple, successful, VC-backed companies. I'm still at it!

My wonderful wife and I moved from New England to near the Portland Oregon area. We LOVE the Pacific Northwest, and we've been here a few years now. We have an adorable baby girl, Vivi.

People here are nice and smile a lot. Vegetables are insanely delicious. Driving is not like Mad Max.

This blog is very Vivi-centric. Our family just can't resist. :) Also, there are some stupid hacking and geek tricks.
