Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Trim stems from button and cremini mushrooms, then thinly slice caps. Keep caps and stems separate.
- Cut or tear oyster mushrooms lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices.
- Pick sage leaves from stems. Keep leaves and stems separate.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Line a plate with paper towels. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil, then sage leaves. Fry for 1 min, until crisp. (TIP: We love to use olive oil for frying sage.)
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer fried sage to the paper towel-lined plate. Season with salt while hot. Set aside.
- Reserve residual sage oil in the pan.
- Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine 4 1/2 cups (5 1/2 cups) warm water, broth concentrate, sage stems and mushroom stems.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low, still covered.
- Reheat the pan with sage oil (from step 2) over medium-high.
- When hot, add sausage, along with onions and remaining mushrooms to the pan Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until veggies have softened and sausage is cooked through.**
- Add garlic salt and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) chili flakes. (NOTE: Like things spicy? Add more chili flakes!)
- Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
- To the pan with sausage, add rice and garlic. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant.
- Add cooking wine. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until wine is absorbed.
- Add 1 cup broth from the pot. (NOTE: Leave sage and mushroom stems behind in the pot.)
- Reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until broth is absorbed by rice.
- Continue to add broth, 1 cup at a time, stirring often for 25-30 min, until broth is absorbed, texture is creamy and rice is tender.
- When the final addition of broth has been added to the risotto, add spinach, half the Parmesan and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter.
- Cook for 1-3 min, stirring often, until spinach wilts and broth is almost completely absorbed.
- Remove from heat, then season with salt and pepper.
- Divide risotto between bowls.
- Sprinkle remaining Parmesan and fried sage over top.
- Sprinkle with any remaining chili flakes.
If you've opted to add sausage, reheat the pan with sage oil (from step 2) over medium-high. When hot, add sausage, along with onions and remaining mushrooms to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until veggies have softened and sausage is cooked through.** Follow the rest of the recipe as written.
