- 1 3/4 cups Arborio Rice
- 1/2 cup white dry wine
- 3-4 cups vegetable broth
- 1/4 teaspoon salt ((more or less to taste))

👨🍳 Instructions
- 1On low/medium heat in a large pan melt the butter, then add the chopped onion and stir to combine. Cook until transparent, then add the rice and stir to combine.
- 2Cook the rice for approximately 2 minutes, than add the wine and cook until it has evaporated (about 1-2 minutes). Stirring occasionally.
- 3Add the broth a little at a time (about ½ cup at a time), stirring often, lower heat a little, you want a low simmer, you do not want the rice to cook too quickly.
- 4Let the rice absorb the broth (but not dry a little moist) before adding more. Taste for salt (you may not have to add any if you have a salty broth) add a dash or two of pepper. Cook approximately 20 minutes or until rice is al dente and not mushy and a little moisture remains.
