The type of rice used is very important, as it must be able to absorb moisture from the broth. This is why round medium-to-short grain rice is usually used. The main varieties of rice used in Italy are Arborio, Carnaroli, Maratelli, Baldo, Roma and Vialone Nano.
There are many variations of risotto. Recipes can use meat, fish, vegetables, seafood, cheese, legumes, wine and fruits.
Below is a great video of Gordon Ramsay cooking a pumpkin risotto.
