Method
 

Instructions
  1. 1. Warm the vegetable broth in a saucepan over low heat and keep it steaming but not boiling.
  2. 2. Set a wide skillet or heavy saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter with 1 tablespoon of the Scarborough Fair Infused Olive Oil Blend.
  3. 3. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened and translucent.
  4. 4. Stir in the mushrooms and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until browned and their moisture has cooked off.
  5. 5. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  6. 6. Stir in the Arborio rice and toast it for 1 to 2 minutes until the edges look slightly translucent.
  7. 7. Pour in the white wine and stir until the liquid is mostly absorbed.
  8. 8. Add the warm broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring often and letting each addition absorb before adding the next. Continue until the rice is tender and creamy, about 18 to 22 minutes.
  9. 9. Season with the salt and black pepper, then stir in the Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, parsley, and thyme.
  10. 10. Remove from the heat and finish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of Scarborough Fair Infused Olive Oil Blend.
  11. 11. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve right away while the risotto is silky and warm.

Notes

Use warm broth and steady stirring to build the creamy texture risotto is known for. The final drizzle of Scarborough Fair Infused Olive Oil Blend adds a fresh herbal finish that ties the mushrooms, Parmesan, and cream together.
