Ingredients
- A generous 6 cups of flavorful vegetable broth
- 18 ounces of plump, freshly shelled cranberry beans
- 3 tablespoons of luscious olive oil
- 3 tablespoons of creamy butter
- Diced pieces of a petite onion
- A clove of garlic, finely minced
- A fragrant sprig of fresh rosemary
- A single, aromatic fresh bay leaf
- A delightful sprig of fresh sage
- A heaping 1 ¼ cups of uncooked carnaroli rice
- ½ cup of crisp and dry white wine
- ¾ cup of rich and savory tomato sauce
Step 1
In a generous saucepan, pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a lively boil. Introduce the fresh cranberry beans into the bubbling broth and allow them to dance together until the beans reach a tender state, about 20 to 25 minutes - ensuring they maintain their delightful firmness. Using a slotted spoon, gently lift the beans from the flavorful broth, allowing the liquid to continue simmering gently over medium-low heat, preserving its essence.
Step 2
Meanwhile, in a separate large saucepan, combine the harmonious duo of olive oil and butter, letting them mingle and sizzle over a medium-high flame. Into this fragrant blend, toss in the aromatic team of onion, garlic, a sprig of whole rosemary, a fragrant bay leaf, and some earthy sage. Let them sauté and mingle until the onions turn tender and translucent, a transformation that typically takes around 7 minutes. Once the onions have reached the desired state, introduce the rice into the mix, stirring gently to toast each grain to a golden hue, a process that typically takes 2 to 3 minutes. As the rice acquires a delightful crunch, fold in the drained beans, ensuring each element is lovingly coated in the flavorful medley.
Step 3
Splash in the white wine, allowing it to dance and infuse the ingredients with its essence before being fully absorbed. Begin the ritual of adding 1/2 cup of the aromatic broth at a time, stirring continuously until each addition is lovingly absorbed by the rice, leading it to a state of al dente perfection. As the rice approaches its zenith, introduce the tomato sauce into the mix, stirring until a lusciously creamy and thick texture envelops the dish, a process that typically takes about 18 minutes of attentive care.
Step 4
Once the risotto has reached its pinnacle of perfection, remove it from the heat source, allowing it to stand and settle for a brief 2 minutes. Gently bid adieu to the rosemary sprig, bay leaf, and sage, and present this culinary masterpiece to be savored and enjoyed.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. To keep your savory Italian rice dish fresh and flavorful, store any leftovers in an airtight container. This will help prevent the rice from drying out and losing its delicious taste.
- 2. For a creative twist on storing your dish, consider dividing it into individual portion-sized containers. This not only makes it easy to grab a quick meal on the go, but also ensures that each serving stays fresh and tasty.
