Method
- Warm the beef broth. Steep the saffron threads in a ladle of hot broth.
- Soften the onion in butter. Toast the risotto rice, then pour in the white wine and let it evaporate.
- Add hot broth a ladle at a time, stirring, for about 16 minutes.
- Stir in the saffron broth for the last few minutes.
- Off the heat, beat in cold butter and grated parmesan. Taste for salt and serve all'onda, quite loose.
Shopping tip
Saffron threads are pricey in Portugal; a 0.3 g tin is enough. Beef broth cubes are acceptable. Bone marrow is traditional but skipped here.
