Cooking Tips

  • For extra flavor, you can add a splash of white wine to the risotto before adding the broth.
  • If you prefer a milder garlic flavor, you can reduce the amount of minced garlic used in the recipe.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover risotto can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat the risotto, add a splash of vegetable broth or water to a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until warmed through.
  • Serve the reheated risotto with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
