Steps

1
Steep the saffron in a ladleful of the hot stock and set aside.
2
Sweat the onion in half the butter, with the marrow if using, until translucent but not coloured.
3
Add the rice and toast it 2 minutes, until the grains turn glassy at the edges.
4
Pour in the wine and stir until it has fully evaporated.
5
Add hot stock a ladle at a time, stirring, adding more only when the previous has been absorbed. Keep this up for about 16 minutes.
6
Stir in the saffron stock at the 12 minute mark so the colour stays vivid.
7
Pull the pan off the heat while the rice is still loose. Beat in the cold butter and Parmesan vigorously — the mantecatura — until it flows like a wave when you tilt the pan.
8
Rest 1 minute and serve immediately on warm flat plates.
