Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot.
- Put the broth on to heat in a separate pot.
- Saute the onion in the oil until it takes on a little color.
- Meanwhile wash the radicchio and cut off core.
- Add the rice to the onion and stir until it is well coated.
- Add the wine to rice and onion and stir; let the wine cook away, about 2 minutes, stirring.
- Shred the radicchio with a knife.
- Add about a cup of simmering chicken broth to rice and cook over high heat, stirring very often until broth has evaporated. Repeat the procedure, this time adding the shredded radicchio. Continue adding broth and stirring, cooking until broth evaporates. You may not need all the broth to cook the rice.
- Meanwhile finely grate the cheese.
- When rice is tender and there is still enough broth left in the rice to make it slightly runny, add the cheese, stirring well, season with pepper and serve.

Steps:
- In a large heavy saucepan or skillet, soften the onion in the butter. Add the rice and cook over fairly high heat, stirring constantly, until the grains turn opaque.
- Add the raddichio leaves, saute for one minute, then pour in the wine. Stir the rice well to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. When the liquid has evaporated, add a ladleful of hot broth. Repeat this procedure until the rice is almost tender but firm. If you run out of stock, add warm water instead.
- Turn off the heat, add cream and season the risotto with salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese to taste. Serve immediately, with more cheese to pass separately at the table.

RISOTTO CON RADICCHIO, GORGONZOLA, NOCI, E CREMA DI BALSAMICO
This is a true Italian winter favorite. The flavor and texture combination is enjoyable due to the tangy flavor of the Gorgonzola, sweetness of the walnuts, and the slight bitterness of the radicchio. The balsamic glaze simply takes it over the top! Buon appetito! This is excellent served with salmon.

Tips for Making Risotto with Radicchio:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This means using fresh, flavorful radicchio, a good quality Arborio or Carnaroli rice, and a flavorful broth.
- Toast the rice before cooking. This helps to bring out the rice's flavor and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Add the broth to the rice gradually. This helps the rice to absorb the broth evenly and cook evenly.
- Stir the risotto frequently. This helps to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and helps to create a creamy sauce.
- Be patient. Risotto takes time to cook, so don't rush the process. It should take about 18-20 minutes for the rice to become tender and creamy.
- Season the risotto to taste. Add salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
- Serve the risotto immediately. Risotto is best served hot and fresh.
