For the Rice: Wash the rice in cold water several times going back and forth between a bowl and a colander, until the last water is clearer than the first one. Set aside while you chop the onion.
Warm 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium saucepan over low heat and cook the onion until it starts to become fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir thoroughly with a wooden spoon. Add the water, salt, stir well then partially cover the pan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low until the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
For the Piamontese Sauce: In a large pan, melt the butter and cook the onion until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Season lightly with
salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Add the milk and heavy cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low immediately, add the cheeses and mix well with a wooden spoon making sure the cheese is melted. Just before serving, add the rice to the sauce, folding gently, making sure each grain is coated in sauce.
