I completely agree. Though it can depend on the pan you're using. I'd always made risotto on a semi-regular basis (at least once/month), but using a nonstick pan. A couple of times ago I tried it in my new enameled cast-iron dutch oven, and it stuck like a bugger. Back to the nonstick pan (a moderately-deep 12" skillet), and stirring only occasionally (mostly to make sure it cooks evenly).
