In a medium saucepan, whisk together the stock and pumpkin over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and keep warm.

Melt the butter in a large dutch oven or saucepan over medium heat. Once the foaming subsides, add the minced shallot and salt. Cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Add the chopped thyme and Arborio rice, cooking for an additional minute.
