Cranberry Pear Glazed Mushroom Risotto with Walnut-Sage Butter
This dish is a harmonious blend of earthy and fruity flavors. The wild mushrooms bring a deep, umami richness to the creamy risotto, while the Cranberry Pear Balsamic Vinegar adds a bright, tangy sweetness that cuts through the richness beautifully. The walnut-sage butter, with its nutty and herbaceous notes, adds a luxurious finish, making each bite complex and comforting.

I N S T R U C T I O N S :
- Heat the Wild Mushroom & Sage Olive Oil in a large skillet. Add onions and sauté until translucent.
- Add the mushrooms and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the Arborio rice, coating it well with the oil. Pour in the white wine and cook until fully absorbed.
- Gradually add vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until each addition is absorbed. Continue until the rice is creamy and al dente, about 18-20 minutes.
- While the risotto is cooking, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the Roasted Walnut Olive Oil and chopped sage. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Once the risotto is ready, stir in the Cranberry Pear Balsamic and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the risotto drizzled with the walnut-sage butter and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
