Well good heavens Evie, this was just delicious. I have never cooked with fresh sage but was able to get ahold of some. Wow, is all I can say. What flavor!! This was a beautiful risotto with a fabulous taste. The pumpkin and sage flavors went well together I thought. Thanks for a wonderful Fall dish.
