Before they take color, add the clean artichokes and cut into very thin wedges (I recommend using a few centimeters of stem).
Salt and sauté for a few minutes by wetting with a ladle of broth. Pour the rice and toast it for a few minutes, then pull it up with the boiling broth.
When ready add the remaining butter and a couple of spoons of Parmesan.
Serve it with pepper and other cheese.
