Equipment

  • 1 Dutch oven
  • 1 Pot
  • 1 Ladle
  • 1 Stirring spoon wooden

Ingredients
  

  • 1 quart chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ medium onion (minced)
  • 1 ½ cups Arborio rice
  • ½ cup white wine
  • cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoons white truffle oil
  • 1 teaspoon milk (or as needed)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (or to taste)
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 oz sliced mushrooms (baby bella)

Instructions
 

  • Heat chicken broth in a stockpot over medium-low heat until warmed, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan until butter melts. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in rice until coated, then cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour wine into rice mixture; cook and stir until liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Add one ladle hot broth and cook, stirring constantly, until broth is absorbed. Continue adding and stirring in one ladle broth at a time until rice is tender but firm to the bite, 20 to 30 minutes. If you run out of broth before rice is cooked, finish cooking with hot water.
  • Stir in Parmesan, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, truffle oil, and milk until fully incorporated, then season with parsley, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.
