Instructions
- In a small sauce pot, warm broth on low
- In a high walled sauté pan, over medium heat, add 2 tbsp olive oil, mushrooms, a pinch of kosher salt/pepper and sauté until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Mushrooms will release liquid, then they will cook down to half their original size. Remove from skillet and set aside in bowl.
- Add 4 tbsp of butter and once melted, add the fresh sage leaves. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes until butter begins to brown, remove from skillet and set aside.
- Add remaining 2 tbsp of butter and shallots, sauté 2 minutes until they begin to soften. Add garlic and cook 1 minute until fragrant. Add arborio rice and toast, stirring a few times, for 2 minutes. Next, add 1/2 cup white wine and allow it to deglaze in the skillet and reduce, about 3 minutes.
- Slowly begin adding the broth one ladle at a time, continuously stirring. Do not add another ladle until the liquid has absorbed into the rice. Continue doing this until risotto is al dente and no longer absorbs liquid, about 16-18 minutes. Should be about 3 1/2-4 cups of broth. You do not want it to be watery, risotto should be toothsome.
- Once the risotto is done cooking, add in the parmesan, mushrooms, browned sage butter, and stir to combine. Turn the heat off, remove from heat and add salt & pepper to taste. Serve and garnish with fresh parmesan if desired.

Notes
- I used a combination of oyster, shiitake, and baby portabello mushrooms
- Ensure broth is warmed before adding it to the risotto
- Add 1 ladle at a time, continuously stirring until liquid is absorbed then repeat.
- Risotto should be al dente when done cooking, not mushy.
- Continuously stirring allows the rice to cook evenly, keeps it from burning, and gives the risotto that creamy velvety texture.
