  • 4 cups organic vegetable broth store-bought or homemade, at room temperature
  • 1 cup lukewarm water
  • 1/2 cup white wine optional
  • 2 tsp. turmeric root minced, or turmeric powder
  • 1/2 cup leek chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1-2 tsp. dried thyme
  • 2-3 fresh sage leaves
  • 1 medium zucchini finely grated (should come to 2 cups)

Instructions
  1. In large skillet over medium heat, melt butter of choice and sauté leeks, turmeric and garlic for about 5 minutes or until soft and fragrant. Add in grated zucchini and shitake pieces, and cook down 5-10 minutes, until tender and soft.
  2. Add rice and stir frequently 2-3 minutes until slightly toasted.
  3. Add white wine, if using, to deglaze pan, stirring frequently and scraping any browned bits from bottom of skillet.
  4. Stir in salt, umami spice, pepper and truffle oil. Add 1/2 cup vegetable broth and fresh herbs. Stir together until completely absorbed by rice.
  5. Add another 1/2 cup broth and repeat, continuing to add broth 1/2 cup at a time until it’s all absorbed and rice is fully cooked. (Note: Add extra 1/2-cup water if needed to complete the cooking of the rice.)
