Price: $99 per person + booking fees
Master the art of risotto at Henry and the Fox. Learn prawn stock, Carnaroli rice technique and perfect saffron risotto in this hands-on cla
Risotto has a reputation for being complicated.
Too often it’s described as temperamental, difficult, or endlessly labour-intensive. But when you understand the technique properly, risotto becomes something entirely different — elegant, precise and deeply satisfying to cook.
Join Malcolm at Henry and the Fox for an intimate hands-on masterclass dedicated to one of Italy’s most iconic dishes: Prawn & Saffron Risotto.
The class begins with selecting and preparing whole green prawns, learning how to properly clean them and use every part to build flavour.
You’ll create a beautiful prawn stock from the shells and heads, learning how professional kitchens extract depth, sweetness and natural salinity — the true foundation of great risotto.
From there we move to the heart of the dish: Carnaroli rice, known as the King of Rice. Developed in Italy’s Po Valley, Carnaroli is prized by chefs for its ability to maintain structure while producing the luxurious creaminess that defines perfect risotto.
Throughout the session Malcolm will guide you through the essential techniques that transform simple ingredients into something exceptional..
