VEGAN RISOTTO WITH MUSHROOMS & PEAS

Steps:

• In a large pan, sauté onions, garlic and herbs in a splash of vegetable broth for a few minutes. Stir occasionally.
• Add the mushrooms and leek and cook for 3-4 minutes, adding more vegetable broth if needed.
• Now, add Arborio rice, soy milk, vinegar and 2 cups of veggie broth to the pan. Mix with a spoon and stir in miso paste if using any.
• Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the cooking liquid is soaked up. Make sure to stir your risotto every few minutes at least!
• Once your risotto is all cooked, stir in the peas, nutritional yeast and lemon juice. Turn off the heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Adjust to taste preferences, then serve warm and decorate with fresh herbs such as mint, basil or parsley if desired.

MUSHROOM RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Bring the broth to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan. Add the porcini mushrooms. Set aside until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Keep the broth warm over very low heat.
• Melt the butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the white mushrooms and garlic. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the porcini mushrooms to a cutting board. Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the saucepan. Saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and let it toast for a few minutes. Add the wine; cook until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of hot broth; simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, adding more broth by cupfuls and stirring often, about 28 minutes (the rice will absorb 6 to 8 cups of broth). Stir in the peas. Mix in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

VEGAN MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Put the dried mushrooms and stock in a saucepan over a high heat and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and keep warm while you start the risotto.
• Heat 2 tbsp Flora Plant Butter and oil in a wide, shallow pan over a medium heat, and fry the shallot for 6-8 mins or until tender. Stir in the garlic for a minute, then add the chestnut mushrooms. Strain the rehydrated mushrooms from the stock with a slotted spoon and add those too. Fry for 8-10 mins or until tender and golden. Stir in the rice and coat in the vegan butter and oil. Add the wine and simmer for 2 mins to reduce.
• Add the stock a ladleful at a time, stirring regularly until absorbed before adding the next ladle. Keep adding and stirring for 20-25 mins until most of the stock has been absorbed (leave the last bit of stock in the pan as this will hold any grit from the dried mushrooms) and the rice is tender.
• Remove from the heat, stir the remaining 2 tbsp vegan butter and the herbs into the risotto, then rest, covered, for 5 mins before serving.

GOLDEN MUSHROOM, PEA, AND ASPARAGUS RISOTTO (VEGAN)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, place the vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
• Slice the asparagus spears diagonally into 1-inch pieces and place them in a fine mesh strainer. Place the strainer in the boiling vegetable stock and cook the asparagus in the stock for 2 minutes to blanch them.
• Remove the strainer from the stock and set the asparagus aside. Reduce the heat of the stock to low.
• In a large saucepan, saute the onion in the olive oil for 3 minutes to soften. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute the mixture an additional 3 minutes.
• Add the Arborio rice, stir well to coat it with the sauteed vegetable mixture, and cook an additional 2 minutes while stirring constantly or until rice turns opaque.
• Add the white wine (or use some of the stock if omitting) and saffron threads, season to taste with salt and pepper, and stir well to combine. Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture while stirring occasionally until all of the liquid has been absorbed.
• Add 1/2 cup of the simmering vegetable stock and continue to cook, while stirring occasionally, until all of the stock has been absorbed.
• Repeat the procedure of adding a 1/2 cup of simmering stock, stirring, and cooking until fully absorbed before adding additional stock, until all but a 1/2 cup of stock remains.
• Add the blanched asparagus, along with the remaining ingredients, and stir well to combine. Cook the mixture an additional 2-3 minutes while stirring constantly, adding the remaining stock, as needed, so that the rice is tender and the risotto has a creamy consistency.
• Taste and adjust the seasonings, as desired.

MUSHROOM RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Bring stock or broth to a simmer in a saucepan, with a ladle nearby. Make sure stock is well seasoned, and keep it simmering on the stove.
• Heat oil in a wide, heavy nonstick skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add onions or shallots and cook gently until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn up heat and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, about 3 minutes, then add garlic and thyme or sage. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper and continue to cook over medium heat until they are soft. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Add rice and stir until grains begin to crackle. Add wine and cook, stirring, until wine is no longer visible in pan. Stir in enough simmering stock to just cover the rice. The stock should bubble slowly. Cook, stirring often and vigorously, until stock is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of stock and continue cooking, not too fast and not too slowly, stirring often and adding more stock when rice is almost dry, for 15 minutes.
• Add peas, if using, and continue adding stock and stirring for another 10 minutes. Rice should be tender all the way through but still al dente. Taste now and adjust seasoning.
• Add another ladleful or two of stock to rice. Stir in parsley and Parmesan, and remove from heat. Season with black pepper and serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates.
