  • Add the rice and let it sauté with the onion for a couple of minutes.
  • Add white wine and let it evaporate.

Notes

Tip: Thin slices of rye bread are toasted in a pan (or in the oven) with a little oil. Sprinkle with a bit of sea salt after toasting and crush it over the dish. It tastes fantastic and adds both crunch and crispiness to the soft, creamy risotto!
