For broth, coat a roasting pan with vegetable oil and roast neck, back and wings of chicken with roughly cut vegetables in a 450 degree oven. Baste every 15 minutes with oil and turn until all is dark brown but not burned. Deglaze pan with a cup of water and turn all into a soup pot. Add 5 more cups of water and simmer one and a half hours. Strain, chill, remove fat and strain through cheesecloth.

For risotto, melt butter and oil in heavy-bottomed pan.

Saute onion until soft but not brown.
