Wild Porcini Mushroom Rissoto

This Wild Porcini Mushroom Risotto is the second chapter in a three‑part celebration of porcini’s deep, woodsy character. Creamy, slow‑stirred Arborio rice absorbs white wine and aromatics, then gets folded together with sautéed porcini so every bite delivers that unmistakable earthy intensity. A final generous shaving of aged Parmesan give the risotto its silky finish.

The first dish in the series, Sautéed Wild Porcini with Crème Fraîche and Sherry Herb Butter, lets the mushrooms stand alone.  This risotto, by contrast, folds their flavor into a luxurious, comforting whole. Stay tuned for the last of the trio next week!
