Risotto con le salamelle

Risotto con le salamelle is a traditional risotto originating from Lombardy. It's made with a combination of butter, onions, soft salami, rice, and chicken broth. The salami should ideally be from Cremona, while the rice should be of the Vialone nano variety.

The onions and peeled and chopped salami are sautéed in butter, followed by the rice which is stirred with a wooden spoon in order to become toasted. The chicken broth is then added to the pan and the risotto is constantly stirred until cooked al dente.
