Making the risotto: In a non-reactive pan, melt the
butter. Wrap the herbs and spices tightly in cheesecloth and secure with butchers twine to create the bouquet. Add the bouquet,
onion and
garlic to the pan. Sweat until the
onion and
garlic are completely softened but not colored. Add the
rice and stir (use a heat resistant rubber spatula or a strong wooden spoon) to coat evenly with
butter. Add the
wine,
season with a little
salt, and let reduce until completely absorbed. Add the stock several ladles at a time. Continue to add stock until the
rice is almost cooked through (approximately 20 minutes on low heat). When the
rice is just cooked through, add
all of the
truffle butter,
parsley,
chives and verjus.
Season with
salt and
pepper and
place in
warm bowls. The
rice should be extremely creamy but still emulsified.
