Instructions

  1. Peel the onion and possibly a clove of garlic and cut into cubes. Sweat in oil. After a while, sweat the risotto rice with it until it is translucent.
  2. Gradually deglaze with white wine and hot broth and stir very regularly - the usual risotto preparation. Season to taste.
  3. At the same time, dice the pears and add them after about half the cooking time and let them cook.
  4. In the meantime, chop and roast 2 handfuls of walnuts. Also chop up the gorgonzola.
  5. When the risotto and pears have reached the desired consistency, fold in the walnuts and cheese. If you like, add butter and parmesan and let it steep for a while.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
