Method

  1. To make the Honey, Sage and Rosemary Risotto, start by finely chopping the shallot and sautéing it in a pan with the oil and butter.
  2. Then add the rice and, after toasting it for a few minutes and stirring from time to time, deglaze with the white wine over high heat.

  3. When you can no longer smell alcohol rising from the pan, start adding the boiling broth, one ladleful at a time, until it just covers the rice. Cook the rice until done, always adding the liquid a little at a time.

Tips

We recommend making the Honey, Sage and Rosemary Risotto at the last minute so you can serve it freshly made, hot and loose and creamy (all’onda, as Italians say), just as it should be.

Storage

You can keep leftover Honey Risotto in the fridge in an airtight container. The next day, reheated in a pan, it will be even better.
