A simple delicious risotto! You’ll need five ingredients:
- Italian rice (arborio)
- Butter
- One onion
- Broth
- Parmesan
I think of something like a Parmesan risotto as a more modern dish. Nope. Not at all. Folks were enjoying risotto 150 years ago!

Wonderful! I love that it’s simple and uses common ingredients – probably want to salt as necessary!
