  5. Begin adding hot broth 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the broth to be absorbed before adding another cup of hot broth. It should take about 20-25 mn for the rice to absorb all of the liquid, and become al dente. When the risotto is done, it will be creamy.

  6. When the risotto is al dente, add the cheese and 1 ounce of butter, and stir. Taste, adjust seasonings and add more butter if the risotto doesn't seem unctuous enough.
