Serves: 6 as an appetizer 8 to 9 cups vegetable broth 2 small shallots, minced 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 cup Italian Arborio rice ½ pound arugula (12 cups), washed, stems trimmed and chopped ½ cup dry white wine ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus ¼ cup for serving Salt to taste, preferably sea salt Freshly ground black pepper to taste 1. In a large saucepan, bring broth to a simmer. Reduce heat and keep warm. 2. In a 4 quart heavy pot over low heat, cook shallots in 1 tablespoon oil, stirring, until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. 3. Stir rice into scallions, raise heat to medium and cook, stirring, for about 2 minutes. 4. Add arugula and wine. Raise heat to high and cook, stirring, until wine has evaporated, about 2 minutes. 5. Reduce heat to medium-high and add 1 cup warm broth. Cook, stirring constantly with a long-handled wooden spoon, until most of the liquid has been absorbed, 2 to 3 minutes. 6.
