Herbed Pumpkin Risotto with Jill Hough

Update: 2025-11-29

Description

Support my small business and give a gift that truly feels personal this year. Since it's Small Business Saturday, I'm sharing the sweetest idea to surprise the home cook in your life. A full year of COOKforTWO for the cost of just ten months, only 99.99, and it even comes with an adorable carved wooden spoon so you have something to wrap and give on the day. It's thoughtful, useful, and supports a creator you love.

I'm also talking about a simple Italian themed dinner that's perfect when you have people coming over. This idea actually started in an email exchange with podcast-listener Sharon, and it turned into one of those easy meals that feels warm and inviting without asking much of you in the kitchen.

And then my guest today is my good friend and recipe developer extraordinaire, Jill Hough. She's sharing her Herbed Pumpkin Risotto, a dish that has become one of my go-tos at this time of year. She talks us through using a fresh pie pumpkin to make this delicious dish, and she tells us about her informative and helpful newsletter too.

It is a cozy, food filled episode with gifts, good ideas, and a truly delicious recipes you'll want to make as soon as possible.
