EASY SLOW-COOKER SORGHUM

LEMON AND ARTICHOKE RISOTTO WITH SHRIMP
I adapted this recipe from Rachel Ray's 365: No Repeats cookbook. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp or they will be rubbery. The estimate for the amount of liquid will vary depending on the several factors, but you should be safe with at least 6 cups of pre-heated liquid, you can expect your rice to be done once you have added 4-6 cups. Start checking for texture after the 4th cup is added.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your risotto.
- Toast the sorghum before cooking. This will help to develop its flavor and give the risotto a more complex texture.
- Cook the risotto slowly and carefully. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with a mushy risotto.
- Stir the risotto frequently. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
- Add the liquid gradually. Don't dump it all in at once, or you'll end up with a soupy risotto.
- Let the risotto rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the rice to absorb the liquid.
- Garnish the risotto with fresh herbs and grated Parmesan cheese. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
