Directions

  1. Warm the chicken broth in a medium pot and maintain at a simmer.
  2. Use neutral oil to coat a straight-sided skillet and heat over medium. Add ginger and white parts of green onions, cooking until fragrant, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in rice, season with salt, and toast for 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in sake and cook about a minute until alcohol evaporates. Ladle in enough hot broth to cover rice, stirring until absorbed. Repeat with more broth 4 to 6 times until broth is used and rice is tender yet al dente, about 20 minutes total.
  3. With rice done, mix in shrimp and edamame; rice's warmth will poach the shrimp gently. When shrimp turn pink, blend in miso. Avoid boiling after thismiso turns bitter when overheated. Taste and season with salt. Incorporate mirin, lemon zest/juice, green onion tops, and fold in crab gently.
  4. Serve by scooping risotto into bowls, finishing with sesame oil drizzle, soy splash, and nori sprinkle.
