HERB AND DRIED TOMATO RISOTTO (GIFT MIX)
This is a simple and delicious Gift-In-A-Jar recipe that I gave out for Christmas this year. It looks beautiful and I got rave reviews on the taste as well! The original recipe came from the 12th Edition Better Homes and Gardens cookbook - I have modified it a little to suit my tastes! This will make 4 half-pint gifts (I layered mine in wide-mouth half pint canning jars and used the plastic storage caps instead of the regular canning lids and rings). I used my homemade dried tomatoes (incredibly easy to do with a dehydrator - just thinly slice roma tomatoes and dry them on the vegetable setting until dry!) but you could use store-bought - just make sure not to get the ones that are packed in oil! The prep time given is the amount of time needed to create the gifts and the cooking time given is the amount of time needed to prepare 1 jar of the risotto. A great gift idea would be to give this mix along with a wedge of high-end parmesan cheese and a bottle of wine! Each jar will serve 6 when made.

Steps:
- Combine bouillon granules and spices together in a small bowl. Divide equally among 4 half-pint canning jars to create the first layer.
- Snip the tomatoes into small pieces with kitchen scissors and divide them evenly among your jars to create the next layer.
- Top off each jar with the rice - filling to the top (you may need a little more or less rice than the recipe calls for - I don't measure the rice out I just fill each jar to the top!).
- Attach the following preparation directions to each jar.
- Additional ingredients provided by the recipient:.
- 3 cups of water.
- 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan or romano cheese.
- In a large, heavy saucepan bring the water to a boil and add the contents of the jar.
- Stir well and return to a boil; reduce heat cover and simmer for 20 minutes (do not lift the cover).
- Remove from the heat and let stand, covered for 5 minutes.
- Rice should be tender but slightly firm. Stir in the cheese and enjoy!
- Makes 6 (1/2-cup) servings.

Steps:
- Heat the butter in pressure cooker over medium-high heat. When it begins to foam, add the leeks, herbs, and crushed red pepper and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute. Stir in the rice and coat it with the butter. Add the wine and cook over high heat, stirring, until it evaporates, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, broth and black olives.
- Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Lower the heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 4 minutes. Quick-release the pressure by setting the cooker under cold running water. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow any excess steam to escape.
- Boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the rice is tender but still chewy and the risotto loses most of its soupiness and becomes creamy and thick, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the smoked mozzarella, green olives, parsley, and salt, if needed. Continue to stir just until the mozzarella has softened and the parsley becomes limp, about 30 seconds. Serve in large shallow bowls.
FRESH HERB RISOTTO
This classic risotto is flooded with fresh herbs at the very end of cooking. Serve it as a main dish or a side. Use a combination of sweet herbs and vivid-tasting salad greens, like wild arugula.

Steps:
- Put your stock or broth into a saucepan, and bring it to a simmer on the stove, with a ladle nearby or in the pot. Make sure that it is well seasoned. Combine the herbs and one of the minced garlic cloves in a bowl, and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy skillet or saucepan. Add the onion or leek and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook gently until it is just tender, about three minutes. Do not brown.
- Stir in the rice and the remaining three cloves of garlic, and stir just until the grains of rice become separate and begin to crackle. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until it is absorbed.
- Begin adding the simmering stock, a couple of ladlefuls (about 1/2 cup) at a time. The stock should just cover the rice and should be bubbling, not too slowly but not too quickly. When the rice is just tender all the way through but still chewy, usually in 20 to 25 minutes, it is done. Taste now and correct seasoning.
- Add another ladleful of stock to the rice. Stir in the herbs, pepper, lemon zest and juice, and Parmesan, and remove from the heat. The mixture should be creamy. If you put some on a plate and tilt the plate the mound of rice should flatten out. Serve right away.

TOMATO RISOTTO
Once you master the risotto technique, you can make flavorful versions throughout the year. This summery version is based on red, ripe tomatoes from the garden, but if you want to up the tomato quotient, surround the finished dish with slices of multicolored heirloom varieties. Best as a first course or vegetarian main course, it could also pair with a main course - grilled fish, for instance.

Steps:
- Put 3 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the onion, and season generously with salt. Add pepper to taste, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice and cook the onions, stirring, until the onions are barely brown, about 2 minutes. Add red-pepper flakes, garlic, white wine and diced tomatoes, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes more.
- Add 2 cups boiling water and adjust the heat to a brisk simmer. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring well with a wooden spoon every minute or so.
- When the liquid is absorbed, add remaining 1 cup water and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the rice is cooked, but the grains are still firm. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding another splash of water if necessary to loosen the mixture. Turn off the heat, stir in the pecorino and 2 more tablespoons olive oil.
- Transfer to a low, wide serving bowl. Surround the rice with tomato slices and season them with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and basil. Pass more grated cheese at the table.

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the tomatoes and garlic in a bowl, sprinkle with the sugar and a touch of salt and freshly ground black pepper, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Lay the tomatoes and garlic halves on a baking sheet and roast for about 40 minutes or until the skins of the tomatoes have collapsed and are just starting to brown.
- Place the roasted tomatoes and garlic and the sun-dried tomatoes in a blender along with the chicken stock and blend until smooth. Place this mixture in a medium stock pot, heat until hot and keep hot.
- Over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and butter in a medium saucepan that is deep but narrow in diameter. Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the rice and seasonings, stir and cook for one minute. Add the white wine, bring to a boil, and boil until the wine is mostly evaporated, 2-3 minutes.
- Add about 1/4 of the hot tomato broth. Cook, stirring regularly, until most of the broth has evaporated, then continue adding the broth, 1/4 cup at a time, stirring regularly as the rice absorbs the broth (this will take 20-25 minutes). The rice will begin to swell and become creamy in texture. Stir in the mozzarella until melted and incorporated. Add salt and pepper to taste. If the rice is too dry, stir in a little extra hot chicken/vegetable broth.

- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes (whole) and sear, stirring occasionally, until they burst and soften, about 7 minutes. Turn heat off. Chop if extra-large.
- At the same time, in a large heavy-bottomed pot or dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the onions. Saute until golden about 10-12 minutes. Add garlic and thyme, saute 2 more minutes until fragrant.
- Add the rice, saute 1 minute, stirring. Add 2 cups warm stock (enough to cover the rice), saffron and smoked paprika, stir and bring to a simmer. Simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed. Add 1 cup broth and the tomatoes and all their juices. Stir until all the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding broth 1 cup at a time, letting the rice absorb it slowly, stirring often over med-low heat, until the rice is plumped, slightly al dente, yet creamy, about 20-25 minutes. You may not need all 8 cups. ( I used 6 3/4).
- Stir in the butter and parmesan. Season generously with salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes. Taste, adjust salt. If bland, it probably needs more salt.
