2 pounds beets, peeled, cleaned, and roughly chopped (frozen is a great option, too)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 pinch kosher salt
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
2 quarts vegetable or chicken stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 shallots, finely minced
2 cups Arborio rice
1 cup La Crema Rose
1/2 cup sour cream
8 ounces goat cheese, chunked into large pieces
1 pinch chopped chives, for garnish

1
Preheat oven to 400u00b0F. Toss the beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper roast on a quarter sheet pan until tender, about 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
2
In a small saucepan, bring stock to a simmer and keep warm over a low flame.
3
In a medium braiser or any wide-bottomed, high-sided pan, melt butter and saute shallots for a couple minutes, or until translucent. Stir in the rice, coating each grain until butter-slicked. Splash in the wine and reduce, stirring constantly.
4
Once the alcohol has evaporated, lower the heat and slowly ladle in the hot stock (one or two ladlefuls at a time), stirring until fully absorbed by the rice between each addition. Keep stirring until the rice is perfectly al dente (to the tooth), about 18 to 20 minutes.
5
Meanwhile, puree the roasted beets with sour cream until very smooth.
6
When cooked to your liking (I like my rice with a slight bite in the middle), stir in the beet and sour cream puree. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
7
Garnish risotto with goat cheese chunks and chives.
