2.In a large, deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.

Treat your ingredients with care...
- Truffles — Use fresh truffles for the best flavor. If fresh truffles are not available, you can use truffle oil or truffle paste as a substitute, but the flavor will be less intense.
Tips & Tricks
- To achieve the perfect creamy texture, stir the risotto constantly while adding the broth.
- Use a good quality Arborio rice for the best results.
- For an extra touch of luxury, drizzle a few drops of truffle oil over the finished risotto before serving.
- Serve the risotto immediately to enjoy it at its best, as it tends to lose its creamy texture upon standing.
- Experiment with different types of truffles for a unique flavor experience.
