Chef's Notes
Do not skip covering the dish with foil for the first half of baking! That steam is your secret weapon to ensure the orzo cooks through completely without drying out.
Pro Tip
When stirring midway through the uncovered bake, do it gently so you do not completely mash the cherry tomatoes, which add wonderful pockets of juicy sweetness.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you forget to stir the casserole during the uncovered baking phase, you will end up with a crunchy, burnt crust of pasta on top and a pool of raw liquid underneath, fit only for the trash bin!
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Our Royal Jester says: 'Why cook for an hour when you can just stare at the oven and pretend you are busy being a culinary genius?'
The Culinary Science
Orzo is actually a pasta shaped like rice, meaning it releases starches as it cooks in the heavy cream and broth, naturally thickening the liquid into a luscious sauce without any extra flour.
