Garlic scapes add rich flavor to creamy risotto.
by: Sarah Walker Caron
Updated Aug 4, 2016

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup garlic scapes (cut into 1/4 inch rounds)
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 4 cups chicken broth or stock
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh sage
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Romano cheese

Steps

  • 1
    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic scapes and cook, stirring occasionally, for five minutes. Stir in the rice and let toast for one minute. Pour in the wine and stir. Allow the wine to fully absorb into the rice.

    Meanwhile, heat the chicken broth in a pan to warm over low heat. Once the wine is absorbed into the rice, begin adding it to the rice mixture one ladle at a time. Allow the broth to be fully absorbed into the rice after each edition (you'll hear a sizzle when its all absorbed). Be patient. Part of making risotto is waiting for it … and it’s totally worth the wait. All in all, this will take about 25 minutes.

    Once all of the broth has been added and absorbed, stir in salt and pepper, the sage and the cheese. Cover and cook for 2-3 more minutes. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
