Steps:
- PREPARING THE RICE.
- Peel and finely chop the onion.
- Melt the butter in a 4-to-5-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring regularly.
- Add the onion and cook, continuing to stir, until it turns soft and translucent.
- Turn the heat down if the onion starts to brown.
- Meanwhile, pour the chicken broth into a separate saucepan, set over medium heat, and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Adjust the heat as needed to maintain this simmer the whole time you are preparing the risotto.
- Once the onion is soft, add the rice and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 3 minutes.
- Adjust the heat as necessary-- if the rice is cooked at too high a heat, it will turn brown and take on an undesirable flavor.
- ADDING THE LIQUID TO THE RICE.
- Using a ladle, scoop up about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of broth.
- Pour it in the pan with the rice, stirring constantly with a spoon.
- After the first addition of broth, the rice mixture will look a bit soupy.
- As the rice begins to cook, stir it constantly, making sure that you scrape along the bottom of the pan so that it does not stick.
- You should see little bubbles popping up on the liquid from time to time.
- If it bubbles more vigorously than this, turn the heat down to medium-low.
- When most of the liquid is absorbed into the rice and the rice begins to look a bit dry, add another ladle of broth to the pan and stir constantly, as before.
- DETERMINING WHEN THE RISOTTO IS COOKED.
- Continue to add the broth in 1/2-to-3/4-cup batches and stir the rice until you have used most of the broth (this will probably take about 20 minutes).
- It is now time to test whether the risotto is cooked.
- Spoon up a grain of rice and bite into it-- it should be tender without being too mushy.
- If it is still crunchy and tastes a bit starchy, you will need to continue adding liquid and cooking further.
- If it looks as if you will run out of chicken broth and your rice is still not cooked, don't be alarmed.
- Because of variations in individual stoves and cooking temperatures, you may need more liquid than called for in the recipe.
- Simply heat up another cup or 2 of chicken broth.
- If you run out of broth, use hot water.
- When the rice is tender and the risotto has a creamy consistency, almost like thick oatmeal, it is done.
- SERVING THE RISOTTO.
- Add salt and pepper to the risotto, about 1/4 teaspoon at a time, until it seems well seasoned to you.
- Stir.
- Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir well.
- Serve the risotto immediately in warm bowls and have extra grated Parmesan on hand.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Saute onion until tender, about 5 minutes. Add rice; cook, stirring until well coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine; cook, stirring until absorbed, about 1 minute. Season with salt. Gently heat broth; keep warm.
- Add about 1 cup of warm broth. Cook, stirring frequently, until absorbed. Continue adding broth, 1 cup at a time, stirring until most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 25 minutes total. The rice should be tender (but not mushy) and suspended in liquid with the consistency of heavy cream.
- Remove pan from heat. Stir in Parmesan and butter; season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately (risotto will continue to thicken as it sits). Garnish with thyme leaves, if desired.

- 10 TIPS FOR PERFECT RISOTTO FROM USA RICE:.
- •Choose the right rice. Risotto is best with U.S. Arborio or medium grain rice. The starch in these grains absorbs flavors easily and takes on a creamy texture.
- •Use a heavy pan with a thick bottom and sides to help distribute heat evenly. Make sure it's large enough to hold the cooked rice. The rice will expand to about three times its original volume.
- •Don't rinse the rice. This removes the starch which gives risotto its wonderful creamy consistency.
- •Sauté the rice in butter or oil. This coats each grain, allowing the rice to slowly absorb moisture and resulting in a creamier risotto.
- •Use a simple, dry white wine. Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay always works well in risotto recipes. Risotto dishes also pair well with these wines.
- •Keep the broth at a simmer when adding to the rice. Hot broth keeps the temperature at a more constant level, ensuring even and continuous cooking.
- •Add broth one cup at a time, allowing the broth to fully absorb before adding more. The gradual addition of broth and slow cooking helps produce creamy risotto.
- •Stir often. This keeps the grains in contact with the liquid for even cooking, prevents the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan, and helps to develop a creamy consistency.
- •Get creative! Stir in additions such as asparagus, peas, cooked shellfish, ham or mushrooms at the end for a hearty, delicious risotto.
- •Risotto is done when the rice is al dente -- creamy, yet firm in the center. Never let rice dry out when making risotto. For a creamy texture, the rice should always -- from start to finish -- be kept under a "veil" of broth.

7 ADDITIONS TO MAKE RISOTTO A COMPLETE MEAL - KITCHN
From thekitchn.com
- Roasted Shrimp. Not only does a pile of roasted shrimp add a touch of fanciness to risotto, but it’s also the ultimate last-minute addition, since it takes no more than a few minutes to cook.
- Beans. The best thing about this addition is that you probably already have it on hand. Pull out that can that’s lingering in the back of your pantry — creamy white beans are my top choice here, but nutty chickpeas are a close second.
- Crispy Chicken Thighs. A crispy, skillet-cooked chicken thigh on top of a bowl of risotto most definitely makes it a hearty meal. While sliced chicken breast works too, the crackly skin from a chicken thigh is a wonderful contrast to the creamy risotto.
- Cooked Sausage. Before you get your risotto going, brown crumbled sausage in the pan or cook up a couple of your favorite links. Then transfer the sausage to a plate to keep warm while you go ahead and make the risotto.
- Fried or Poached Eggs. An egg on top of just about anything makes it more of a complete meal. Either a fried or a poached egg is a winning addition, so pick your favorite.
- Ricotta. Add more cheese to risotto, you ask? Yes! Instead of stirring ricotta in, leave it aside and then add a generous dollop to each bowl so that it makes its own statement.
- Seared Scallops. Top risotto with a few seared scallops and it’s instantly dinner-party material — or just a surefire way to impress someone. Buttery, tender scallops are quick and simple to make yet feel extra special.
