Mise En Place
Mix the chicken base and water together completely. Add the saffron and set it aside.
Put the Instant Pot on saute mode and add half of the butter.
Saute the onions until they are translucent, then add the mushrooms and shallot. Saute a minute or so.
Add the rice to the pot and stir it around to get it thoroughly coated.
Add the wine and the stock.
Put the Instant Pot on rice.
When the rice is done, remove the inner pot. If it looks like there is too much liquid left, don't worry, it will absorb almost immediately.
Add the cheese and remaining butter and toss.
Put in a nice serving dish and enjoy.
