$\"pumpkin$ <\/p>\n

We’re approaching the end of pumpkin season, so I’ve been posting my very best pumpkin recipes last week and this week. Luckily, pumpkins keep well for a couple months (and my pumpkin puree<\/a> will keep good for 6 months or more when frozen) which means after you buy up those last pumpkins, you’ll have ample time to cook these delicious recipes!<\/p>\n

I can see why pumpkin (and butternut squash) risotto shows up on a lot of menus around this time of year. This restaurant darling is fairly simple to make and packed with flavor, and the risotto easily takes on a beautiful orange color from the pumpkin puree. In this rendition, fresh ginger plays a subtle background note to the rich pumpkin flavor. This dish makes for a filling vegetarian main course or a great side along a cut of steak.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nPumpkin Risotto<\/span><\/strong>
\nYield: 4 servings<\/span><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n

\n
2 Tbsp olive oil<\/span><\/li>\n
1 onion, diced<\/span><\/li>\n
4 – 5 whole cloves garlic<\/span><\/li>\n
1\/4″ piece ginger, minced<\/span><\/li>\n
1 cup arborio rice<\/span><\/li>\n
1\/2 cup dry white wine, dry hard cider, or pale ale<\/span><\/li>\n
4 cups simmering stock<\/span><\/li>\n
1\/4 tsp kosher salt<\/span><\/li>\n

1 cup pumpkin puree<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces<\/span><\/li>\n
1\/2 cup grated parmesan or pecorino romano cheese<\/span><\/li>\n
1\/4 tsp freshly ground pepper<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Method:
\n<\/p>\n
\n
In a large (about 3-quart) sautee pan (you can also use a dutch oven), heat 2 Tbsp olive oil<\/em> over medium heat, and saut\u00e9 1 onion, diced<\/em> until translucent and starting to brown.<\/li>\n
Add 4 – 5 whole garlic cloves<\/em> and 1\/4″ piece ginger, minced<\/em>, and saute until fragrant (about 30 seconds).<\/li>\n
Lower the heat slightly, and add 1 cup arborio rice<\/em>. Toast the rice, stirring constantly, until the grains all look translucent with a small white center.<\/li>\n
Add dry white wine, dry hard cider, or pale ale<\/em>, and cook until it is mostly absorbed by the rice.<\/li>\n
Add 1 cup (or a couple ladle-fulls) of 4 cups simmering stock<\/em> and 1\/4 tsp kosher salt<\/em>. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring frequently, adding 1\/2 to 1 cup more stock each time the liquid has been mostly absorbed by the rice.<\/li>\n
After 20 minutes, stir in 1 cup pumpkin puree<\/a><\/em>, and continue cooking and adding stock until the rice tastes done (about 10 more minutes).<\/li>\n
Remove from stove, and stir in 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces<\/em>, 1\/2 cup grated parmesan or pecorino romano cheese<\/em>, and 1\/4 tsp freshly ground pepper<\/em>, making sure to thoroughly incorporate the butter and cheese. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
