"In the classical technique, wine is poured into the rice immediately, but we add it almost at the very end to preserve its flavor and make the risotto more flavorful and rich," the chef said.
4. When the rice is warm, pour the broth into the pan in small portions. Do this all the time while the risotto is cooking.

5. Bring the rice to readiness in the broth, stirring constantly.
6. Then add the shrimp and spinach to the rice. To prevent them from being overcooked, add them when the rice is three-quarters done. Pour in the wine at the same time.
