Bring it to a simmer then reduce heat to the lowest setting just so it stays hot.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Place a large pot or\u00a05 1\/2 qt dutch oven on a second burner over medium-low heat and add 2 Tbsp butter and oil.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Add onions and saut\u00e9 the onions over low heat stirring frequently with a spatula\u00a0until softened and translucent (don\u2019t brown), about 6-7 minutes. Add garlic and stir another 30 seconds.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Add rice, increase to medium heat, and stir constantly for 2 minutes until toasted. The rice will start to look translucent and barely golden, about 3 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Add white wine to deglaze the pan and stir until the liquid has absorbed, about 2 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Add 1 ladle of chicken stock and continue stirring until the rice has absorbed the broth.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Add the remaining broth one ladle at a time allowing the liquid to almost completely absorb each time (don\u2019t let it get too dry or it can stick and burn).<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Continue adding one ladle full at a time while stirring continuously. This process can take around 20-25 minutes depending on your desired doneness.<\/li>\n<li class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\">Once the rice is firm tender or your desired doneness, add 2 Tbsp butter and freshly grated parmesan (1\/2 cup). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Season with more parmesan, pepper and parsley.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><\/div>\n\n<p>Thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/natashaskitchen.com\/classic-risotto-recipe\/\">https:\/\/natashaskitchen.com\/classic-risotto-recipe\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nice cheesy Parmesan Risotto Thanks to https:\/\/natashaskitchen.com\/classic-risotto-recipe\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1846,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[9,84],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pasta","category-side-dishes"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Risotto-Rice-Hero-1024x1536-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7VfK8-tK","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1844"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1844"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1844\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1855,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1844\/revisions\/1855"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olivereats.ca\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
