INGREDIENTS

  • Mushrooms

    • 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms

  • Liquid

    • 1 cup hot water
    • 1 (32 ounce) carton beef stock
    • 1 cup white wine, divided

  • Oil/Butter

    • ¼ cup olive oil, divided
    • 🧈 ¼ cup butter, divided

  • Vegetables & Aromatics

    • 🧄 3 cloves garlic
    • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
    • 1 shallot, chopped

  • Seasonings

    • 🧂 Salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • Grains

    • 1¾ cups Arborio rice

  • Cheese

    • ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese

STEPS

1

Place porcini mushrooms in a bowl and cover with hot water. Let soak until soft, about 1 hour. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. Squeeze mushrooms to remove excess water and roughly chop.

2

Bring beef stock to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to low and cover to keep warm.

3

Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic cloves; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook and stir until soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with rosemary, salt, and pepper. Discard garlic cloves; pour in 1/2 cup wine. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until wine reduces, 3 to 5 minutes.

4

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil with 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir shallot until soft, about 3 minutes. Cook and stir Arborio rice until toasted and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Pour in remaining 1/2 cup wine. Simmer until wine is absorbed, about 3 minutes.

5

Ladle 1/3 of the warm stock into the saucepan; cook and stir until absorbed. Ladle in remaining stock and reserved soaking liquid in small amounts and cook, stirring constantly, until risotto is tender and creamy, 15 to 18 minutes.

6

Remove risotto from the heat; stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and Parmesan cheese. Let stand for 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
