Risotto can be very time-consuming. I make this in the crockpot and add edamame instead of fava beans. It is best served immediately or it will thicken.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, bring the broth to a boil.
- Add the edamame and cook as long as specified on the package, usually 5 minutes.
- Remove the beans and spread them out on a large plate.
- Reserved the broth.
- As soon as the beans are cooled, pinch pods to remove the beans.
- Discard the pods.
- In a small skillet over medium high heat, warm the oil and 1 Tablespoon of the butter; add the onion and cook, stirring until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Then add the rice, stirring until it turns from translucent to opaque (do not brown), about 2 minutes.
- Scrape the rice into the slow cooker.
- Add the warm broth.
- Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 3/4 to 2 1/4 hours.
- The risotto should be only a bit liquid and the rice should be al dente.
- Stir in the edamame and the remaining 1 Tablespoon of butter.
- Cover and wait about 5 minutes for the edamame to warm up and the butter to soften.
- Stir in the cheese and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the dish. Look for fresh, organic vegetables and high-quality olive oil.
- Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too much rice to the pot, it will not cook evenly. Add the rice in small batches and stir frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Use a good quality broth. The broth is an important part of the flavor of the risotto. Use a homemade broth or a high-quality store-bought broth.
- Cook the risotto slowly and patiently. Risotto takes time to cook properly. Don't rush the process or the rice will not be cooked evenly.
- Stir the risotto frequently. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and will also help to release the starch from the rice, which will create a creamy texture.
- Add the cheese and butter at the end of cooking. This will help to create a creamy and flavorful risotto.

Crock-Pot risotto is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
