Ingredient Notes:
Butternut Squash: Rich in vitamins and minerals, as well as antioxidants, butternut squash is fiber-rich and is so versatile in both sweet and savory dishes. Vegetable Broth: You can really use any type of broth here. Just make sure you warm it up first as using warm broth with rice coaxes more starch out of the rice and helps prevent overcooking.

What goes well with butternut squash risotto? You can make a side salad, or add a protein like chicken. You can also add in some sautéed kale, or even portabella mushrooms. What is the secret to risotto? The key with risotto is you cook it for longer, on lower heat. You also need to not just set it on your stove and forget about it. It requires you to continuously stir it, and add in warm broth when it starts to get dry. What do Italians eat risotto with? Risotto is considered a main dish, and is usually served with small portions of meat or light vegetable side dishes. When should you not use butternut squash? Discard butternut that’s leaky, mushy, or has large spoiled areas. When you can’t find a fresh one that is good, you can always find frozen and use that instead.
