About

Welcome! My name is Bethany Kramer, and I love cooking Italian-American classics and everything else in between. My mom taught me how to cook when I was about 8 years old, so a handful of recipes I share here are from my childhood that my mom taught me, and the rest are from spending endless hours in my own kitchen recipe developing for the last 10 years. My favorite thing about food is that it can bring everyone I love together in one room. Some of my favorite memories with my family have been created around the table as we've enjoyed these very recipes I'm sharing with you all. So I can only hope these dishes inspire you to create those same irreplaceable memories with your loved ones! All of my videos have step-by-step recipe instructions and the best tips I know, so you can easily follow along and be successful no matter your experience. You can visit my website, https://asimplepalate.com, to explore all of my recipes. NEW VIDEO every other Thursday at 1 pm (EST).

Learn how to make a classic creamy risotto. This Italian rice dish is delicious and uses special rice (arborio or carnaroli), which is high in starches to create the creamiest consistency. The risotto is flavored with white wine, freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano, and fresh herbs! Pair this with seafood, beef, pork, grilled chicken, or your favorite vegetables. :) RECIPE: https://asimplepalate.com/blog/classic-risotto/ INGREDIENTS: 1 Tablespoon olive oil 3 Tablespoons salted butter, divided 3 shallots, diced 1 cup dry arborio rice 1/3 cup dry white wine, I use Pinot Grigio 32 oz chicken stock 1 heaping cup finely and freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano, plus more for serving 2 Tablespoons fresh basil, chopped salt and pepper to taste My Spotify Cooking Playlists 🎶 https://open.spotify.com/user/bethanyskramer MY FAVORITE KITCHEN TOOLS & INGREDIENTS https://www.amazon.com/shop/asimplepalate STAY CONNECTED Join my email list: https://asimplepalate.com/subscribe/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/asimplepalate Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/asimplepalate Website: https://asimplepalate.com/ Music by Epidemic Sound: https://share.epidemicsound.com/ulcmdw
