Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, heat the chicken or vegetable broth over medium heat until it simmers gently. Keep it warm on low heat while you prepare the risotto.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and minced garlic, and sauté until they are translucent and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

Cooking the Risotto

  1. 3

    Toast the Rice

    Add 1 cup of Arborio rice to the skillet with the sautéed shallots and garlic. Stir the rice for about 2 minutes until it is lightly toasted and coated with butter.

  2. 4

    Add Broth Gradually

    Pour in about 1 cup of the warm broth into the skillet and stir continuously until the liquid is mostly absorbed. Continue adding the broth, one cup at a time, allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding the next, stirring frequently. This process should take about 18-20 minutes until the rice is creamy and al dente.

  3. 5

    Finish the Risotto

    Once the rice is cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons of white truffle oil, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix until creamy.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Risotto

    Spoon the risotto into serving bowls. Garnish with shaved fresh white truffles and chopped parsley for an elegant finish.

  2. 7

    Enjoy!

    Serve immediately while hot, allowing everyone to relish the rich flavors of the Alba White Truffle Risotto.
