Risotto all'uovo

Risotto all'uovo is a traditional type of risotto made with eggs. Other ingredients usually include risotto rice, chicken stock, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, butter, salt, and pepper, although there are many variations on the dish. Unlike most risottos, the rice in risotto all'uovo isn't toasted with the butter and onions at the beginning. The rice is simmered in stock until just tender and al dente. The egg mixture (beaten eggs, cheese, salt, and pepper) is added to the rice and the risotto is cooked until the rice is tender and the eggs are cooked. The hot risotto is served in buttered bowls and served immediately.
