Farro Mushroom Risotto

Preparation

STEP 1

In a large 4-quart saucepan, heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add in the shiitakes and sauté, about 3 minutes, until soft. Remove from pan and set aside.

STEP 2

Melt the butter in the same pan over medium heat. Add in the shallots, garlic and salt and sauté until shallots are slightly browned, about 2 minutes. Then add Pereg Natural Farro and stir until the farro is slightly toasted and coated in butter.

STEP 3

Then add in the white wine and let simmer until the wine evaporates, about 2 minutes.

STEP 4

Turn the heat down to low and add in the stock ¼ cup at a time, stirring continuously with each addition. Do not add more stock until the previous ¼ cup has been completely absorbed.

STEP 5

Keep adding until the farro is cooked and mixture is creamy, about 30-40 minutes. You may not need all the stock.

STEP 6

Stir in Parmesan cheese and Greek yogurt immediately and then stir in mushrooms. Garnish with pine nuts and chives.
