A few quick notes
1. Keep the resting step
Leave the resting or standing step in place when planning the finish. Use that moment to get the serving things ready, and follow the method before cutting, stirring or serving.
2. Set out the first ingredients
Look through the first cooking step and have its ingredients ready before you begin. It is easier to give the pan your attention when you are not still looking for the next item.
3. Give the simmer its place
Keep the simmering stage in the sequence when planning the meal. Follow the heat and texture checks in that step rather than rushing straight to the finish.

A few questions you might have
What should I get ready before starting?
Set out the saucepan, pot, and skillet. Read the first preparation step before you get going: Whisk together Stock ingredients in a small saucepan over medium low heat.
Which little step is worth remembering?
Leave the resting or standing step in place when planning the finish. Use that moment to get the serving things ready, and follow the method before cutting, stirring or serving.
What check should I look for as it cooks?
Keep this part of the method in view: Continue 1 cup at a time until the risotto is just cooked - squeeze a grain, it should still be firm but cooked through - about 15 minutes.
Is there another preparation step to plan for?
Read the pan-heating step before beginning. Have the ingredients for that stage ready, then follow the heat and additions in the recipe’s order.
