Ingredients for 4 people:

• 320 g of Carnaroli rice
• 1 bottle of Pinot Nero from the Valle D'Itria from Cantine Podere del Trullo
• 1 liter of vegetable broth
• 1 white onion
• 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
• 50 g of butter
• 50 g of grated Parmigiano Reggiano

7. When the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and add the butter and grated Parmigiano Reggiano. Stir vigorously to make the risotto creamy.
