Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Broth
In a saucepan, heat the vegetable broth over low heat and keep it warm.
Sauté the Aromatics
In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the Koshihikari rice and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the rice is slightly translucent.
Add Wine
Pour in the white wine and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently until the wine has mostly evaporated.
Add Broth Gradually
Start adding the warm vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the rice to absorb the broth before adding more. Continue this process for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is creamy and al dente.
Incorporate Crab and Season
Once the rice is cooked, gently fold in the wild Atlantic snow crab meat, remaining butter, Parmesan cheese, and chopped chives. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve
Remove from heat and let it rest for a minute before serving. Garnish with additional chives if desired.
