Instructions

  1. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in Dutch oven or large stock pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and butternut squash with a generous pinch of kosher salt. Saute for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, warm the vegetable stock in a saucepan.
  2. Add garlic and herbs and a pinch of red pepper flakes or freshly ground black pepper. Saute for 1-2 minutes until garlic is fragrant.
  3. Stir in arborio rice and toast it for about 1 minute, then deglaze the pan with apple cider vinegar, stirring to combine, and allow to absorb for 1 minute.
  4. Add vegetable stock in ½ - 1 cup increments, stirring until absorbed. Reduce heat to medium and continue adding stock in these increments for about 20-25 minutes, stirring between each addition until absorbed.
  5. With about ½ to 1 cup of stock remaining, taste test to get an idea of how done the rice is. You'll want it to be more al dente like pasta, with a little chew and texture, but not crunchy. With the last batch of stock, stir in kale to wilt.
  6. Once the liquid is absorbed, stir in the remaining butter and parmesan cheese until melted.
