For an even richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken stock instead of bouillon. Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices, such as saffron or thyme, to customize your risotto. If the risotto is too thick after pressure cooking, add a splash of hot water or broth to reach your desired consistency. For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth. Best served immediately for optimal creaminess.
