Jokes on you, I’m Shinto.
I literally offer alcohol to my dieties and throw back a few drinks with them while I’m at it.

>the saint will pop your eyes out.
Lol wait, what?
Is that seriously the belief?
Because looking her up, it says she’s the Patron Saint of the blind.
If the saint of the blind gouges peoples eyes out as punishment, that’s funny as fuck.

>>17123551
Seems pretty pagan anon why are you worshiping saints and not god?

First thing is the rice.
2 lt of water for 1 kg of rice. Carnaroli rice is mandatory, because otherwise it wont agglutinate. Gatekeepers and anality want you to cook a perfect rice in order to avoid to put butter to make it easier to assemble the balls, but you can put butter. I did in the past but today I was able to pull it off a good rice and didnt need any butter

When the water boils put broth and saffron. Then put rice amd mix it to avoid it to stick. Then it will produce the gluten and the water will dry

>eggfort
>but fried
bitch ain't even surly-lookin

now after the rice is cooked you have to spread it and wait for it to be cold. in the meanwhile you start making the stuff, you can see some of it in this pic

shinto are cool

this is our tradition. In Swden you get blond girls dressed in white bringing candels into the night. in Northern Italy you get presents by Santa Lucia. In Mexico and Sicily Santa Lucia pops your eyes out. keep in mind that in Palermo we have literally dia de los muertos and the dead bring presents to kid, one of the many thing we share with mexicans along with mafia killings and drug trafficking (this is also an answer to >>17123607

I appreciate the irony of being blinded by the patron saint of the blind.

Now, there are two different traditional stuffings for arancine: alla carne o al burro. Which means with ragout and with bechamel+mozzarella+ham. But recently a lot of meme flavours came by, especially for tourist amd vegeterians. Since I didnt have time to make the ragout amd I have to share them with a couole of vegetarians, I did 3 different stuffings:
Gorgonzola+pumpkin
Mushrooms+fontal
And the traditional burro one.
To make the mushroom one I did half a shallot and a couple of garlic pieces sauteed with parsley, olive oil and rhen some white wine, pic related

But for what purpose? That doesn’t sound very saintly.

Thank you everyone for your appreciation guys, I hope this way our beloved Lucia will forgive us for our sins.
Now I explain the pumpkin stuffing, kinda similar to the mushroom one with half a shallots and two pieces of garlic, sauteed with oil and then wine until it dries, you can cook pretty much everything like this. I put also rosemary and salvia that are great with pumpkin.
The thing is, pumpkin is way harder than mushrooms. So I trusted the girl I was with who told me you can microwave it. I never did, but we didnt have much time so I agreed.
As it often happens, the result were mixed, since of course we got it earlier than we would have by putting it in the oven or cooking in the pan with water. But some chunks were undercooked, but that is the deal with women: if you dont trust em they will make you pay but if you trust them, you can have mixed result.
I tried to set the undercooked chunks apart, but one of them ended up in one arancina she gave to her cousin, but it is not my problem, I tried to help but well, that s life.
I also must say that the idea of making pumpkin+spicy gorgonzola arancine was her idea and it was a wonderful mix, sweetness and hot

>>17125783
If it is not clear, we out the pumpkin in the microwave for some 8 minutes than sauteed it, I feel obliged to clarify since we are on 4chan which is an inclusive and diverse community that appreciates special needs people, autists and schizos

>>17123551
Are deenz ok?
I wouldn't want my eyes poked out.

>>17125788
Don't forget to take it out of the oven, spaz.

So now its the time for the authentic stuffing which is called 'al burro' even tho it doesnt contain butter.
First you make the bechamel, milk, flour, nutmeg and a bit of saltnpepa.
Some fancy people do the bechamel with the roux, which means you first stir butterand flour and then you put the milk. I am not a french cum enthusiast so I did it by slowly mixing milk with flour.
After you are done woth it, you let it rest for 4 minutes, not more otherwise it will become too much dense, like a cum stracchino, not useful.
You should have alteady one nozzarella and some ham (prosciutto cotto) already cut, and you mix them together.
This is the result, delicious even tho my bechamel was a bit to demse and flour-y. But after frying it it became perfect.
