    Absolutely loved this recipe, the layers of flavor are fantastic. Making it with the home-made stock is totally worth it. We had it as a course in our dinne group and it was the favorite of the whole meal.
    Only one criticism: The photo shows the dish with shaved parmesan on it, and most risottos are served with it, and this one is delicious with it. But there is no mention of the cheese in the recipe, so you need to make sure to buy it if you like your risotto with parmesan.

    We thought this recipe was great - and extremely flavorful. We had fresh sage and thyme on hand so I really recommend using fresh. Dried chervil in the butter worked ok. I did not take the time to roast the garlic, so just minced some fresh, which worked fine if you don't mind a stronger garlic flavor. Also, it took approx 15-20 mins total for the squash to cook.

    I have made this recipe a number of times, and while it is a bit time consuming, it's really amazing. Works as a main course or as a side dish. Try it with maple glazed pork tenderloin!

    Great! Rich, delicious, and a wonderful autumn dinner. I served this with scallops in a beurre blanc sauce for a dinner party and it was a big hit.

    This was a hearty and delicious dinner. I've never cooked much with butternut squash so I was pleased that this turned out so well. I did not have the fresh herbs so I used dried. I halved the amount of sage and thyme because the dried herbs are more intense. II think I could have used a little more. All in all, it was different and very, very good. It was fun to make too.

    My sister begs me to make this for her. It is a great winter dish but it is best served hot and right away. Reheated is not as good.
