Ingredients:

Serving

6 to 8 cups low-sodium or homemade chicken stock (preferably homemade ) you may not need all of the broth
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 to 2 1/2 cups arborio rice
3/4 cup white wine
1 large pinch saffron (put this in a small bowl with about 2 tbsp of the wine)
1 tbsp butter
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper , to taste

Directions:

Heat the broth in a small saucepan and keep warm.
In a large high sided saute pan or risotto pan, heat the oil over medium heat; add the onions and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the rice, mix well to coat; saute until the edges turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the wine, cook, stirring until evaporated. Add 2 cups of the broth (about 4 ladles full); simmer, stirring occasionally, until absorbed. Add the saffron and a pinch of salt, then start adding the liquid 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well and adding more broth only when the last addition has been absorbed. Continue to add liquid until the rice is tender (although a little firm to the tooth); about 20 - 25 minutes. Remove the risotto from the heat, stir in the butter and cheese. Taste and adjust seasonings; add a little more liquid if you like a looser risotto.
