To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have spinach risotto using 10 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

The ingredients needed to make Spinach Risotto:
  1. Prepare 8 ounces cold Taleggio (you can use Fontina or Brie instead, just remove the rind)
  2. Take 10 ounces/8 packed cups spinach, any thick stems removed
  3. Make ready 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  4. Get 1 medium red onion, finely diced
  5. Take 3 cups finely diced celery
  6. Prepare 2 garlic cloves, finely grated or mined
  7. Prepare 1 1/2 cup Arborio rice
  8. Get 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, more as needed
  9. Make ready 3 1/2 cups good vegetable or chicken stock

Spinach risotto is one of those good old classics. And depending on where you are cooking from, spinach, unlike other greens, most likely is always in season.

Instructions to make Spinach Risotto:
  1. Cut the rind off the Taleggio (or the other cheeses) and discard. Dice the cheese into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside at room temperature as you prepare the rice.
  2. Line a colander with a clean dish towel and place spinach inside. Heat about 8 cups of water until boiling, then pour over spinach; the spinach will wilt. Let spinach sit until cool enough to handle, then use the dish towel to squeeze out the water. Transfer spinach to a food processor and blend with 1 tablespoon butter until smooth. (You’ll end up with about 1 cup of purée.) Reserve
  3. Melt remaining 5 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion, celery and garlic; cook until translucent, about 7 minutes. Stir in rice and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook until toasted and golden, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in wine and cook until it’s absorbed, about 3 minutes. Stir in stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring often but not necessarily continuously, until the stock is finished and the rice is cooked through but not mushy, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. Stir in spinach purée, then taste and add more salt, if needed. Add Taleggio (or Fontina / Brie) and stir to melt. Serve - immediately
