Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 shallots, minced
1 cup Arborio rice
1/8 teaspoon saffron
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups homemade or low-sodium chicken stock, skimmed of fat
6 sage leaves (about 1 tablespoon), coarsely chopped, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium ovenproof saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallots; cook, stirring until shallots are translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add rice, and stir until grains are shiny and well coated with oil, about 2 minutes more. Add saffron and wine, and continue cooking and stirring until liquid is absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add stock, sage, salt, and pepper. Cover saucepan; transfer to oven. Bake until all of the stock is absorbed and rice is tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove the cover from saucepan. Dot the top of the rice with butter, arrange sage over the rice, and bake until butter is melted, about 5 minutes more. Serve immediately.

This is a mild, smooth and creamy rice dish that works nicely as a foil for spicy entrees. Terrific comfort food. Because the risotto is baked, you don't have to stand and stir it for twenty-five minutes. Love the sage in this.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 shallots, minced
1 cup arborio rice
1/8 teaspoon crunbled saffron thread
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut in pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°; in a medium saucepan saute shallots in oil until soft, 2-3 minutes; add rice and stir until coated with oil, 2 minutes.
  • Stir in saffron and wine and cook, stirring, until liquid is absorbed, 3-5 minutes; add the stock, sage, salt and pepper: cover and bake 25 minutes or until all the stock is absorbed.
  • Dot the top of the rice with the butter, arrange sage garnish and return to the oven; bake 5 minutes, until butter is melted; serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your risotto. Look for Arborio or Carnaroli rice, which are the best types of rice for risotto.
  • Toast the rice before adding the liquid. This will help to develop the flavor of the rice and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add the liquid slowly and stir constantly. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking together and becoming clumpy.
  • Cook the risotto until it is creamy and al dente. It should have a slight bite to it.
  • Stir in the cheese and butter at the end of cooking. This will help to create a rich and creamy sauce.
  • Serve the risotto immediately. It is best enjoyed when it is hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Baked sage and saffron risotto is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, this risotto is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
