Recipe and tips: https://to.pbs.org/3MsLtvr | #LidiaPBS

Welcome to Lidia’s kitchen! Lidia shows us how to make Mushroom Risotto, one that she makes often at home. She reminisces as she cooks, and tells the story of opening her first restaurant, Felidia, as young woman. Hear what happened when Julia Child and James Beard came in to the restaurant asking specifically for the Risotto.

Lidia Celebrates America: Flavors That Define Us, an all-new hour-long documentary special featuring chef Lidia Bastianich, will premiere May 31 at 9/8c right here on the PBS Food YouTube channel. Lidia will join in the live chat to reply to Q’s and comments from viewers like you!
