PUMPKIN RISOTTO WITH PROSCIUTTO
Inspired by a dish from a small Trattoria in Florence, Italy. I recommend using good quality chicken broth; organic and free range works well and adds so much more flavor. Dice prosciutto very small. Ask the deli counter for a ¼ inch slice which is about 1/4 of a pound, this will make dicing it easy. The garlic should be very thinly sliced. And as in any recipe you can substitute ingredients to your liking or to whatever is available in your area. For example: if you don't have Grappa use a dry white wine or dry vermouth; and Parmigiano-Reggiano can be substituted for Grana Padano.

Steps:
- In a sauce pan combine the pumpkin and chicken broth. Warm over a medium burner and then reduce heat to low; keep mixture warm.
- Heat the oil over medium heat and brown the prosciutto for 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Add the rice; stir to coat the rice in the oil for 1-2 minutes until the grains are opaque. Add the Grappa, and allow the rice to absorb the liquid. Stir in sage.
- Reduce heat to low. Add ½ to 1 cup of chicken broth and pumpkin mixture to cover the rice. Allow the rice to absorb the liquid before adding another half cup of broth. Continue adding the broth-pumpkin mixture until it is used. You may need to adjust your temperature so the rice cooks correctly. This process should take about 20 minutes.
- When rice is al dente add the cheese, stir to incorporate. Add salt and pepper to taste. Divide into 4 portions and add parsley for garnish.
