Recipe

Step 1: In a stockpot, combine the broth and the wine. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to medium-low to keep the liquid at a simmer.

Step 2: In a wok over medium heat, melt the butter and add the olive oil. Sauté the shallots until golden, about 4 minutes. Add the rice and stir, gently “toasting” it for 2 minutes. Add the asparagus and 1-1/2 cups of the simmering liquid. Cook, stirring, until the liquid is almost completely absorbed by the rice.

Step 3: Add the remaining liquid a ladleful at a time and continue stirring until the rice is cooked through and tender and the liquid is completely absorbed, about 35 minutes.

Step 4: Stir in the Parmesan, mascarpone, and lemon zest and juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
