Have you ever noticed the difference between the way the followers of Mohammed and the followers of Jesus react when one or the other is insulted? When Mohammed is insulted, Islam says the offender is to be killed by the faithful, but when Jesus is mocked, Scripture teaches us to pray that God would have mercy on the mocker. Why the difference? Do Muslims hold Mohammed in higher esteem? Not at all. It’s simply this: Mohammed oppressed and slaughtered some of those that resisted his message and taught his followers to do the same. But Jesus died for His enemies and taught us to love our enemies as well, so that we would be like our Father in heaven. Now, I ask you, which religion sounds as though it came from heaven, and which was made here on earth?

INGREDIENTS

1	qt	Chicken stock,; heated
2	tb	Olive oil
2	tb	Finely-minced onions
1/2	lb	Arborio rice
2	tb	Butter
2	tb	Heavy cream
1	tb	Chopped chives

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat chicken broth to simmering in a small saucepan and leave on very low
heat. In a heavy- based, wide saucepan heat olive oil, add onions and cook~
until golden over medium heat. Add rice and stir to coat each and every
grain with oil. Begin by adding 1 cup of hot stock, stirring with a wooden
spoon to mix. Allow this liquid to be absorbed, then add 1/2 cup stock,
stirring until evaporated. Continue to add broth by 1/2 cupfuls, stirring
after each addition. Continue until rice begins to soften. Last addition of
stock should just absorb into rice, leaving it slightly tight. Stirring
quickly with a wooden spoon, add butter and cream . Risotto will become
very creamy. Stir in herbs and cheese. Remove from heat and adjust
seasoning to taste. Serve topped with freshly-grated cheese and drizzle
with truffle oil, if using.
