Arborio (or any other kind of risotto rice) is cooked slowly with stock and when done, you stir in some freshly grated Parmesan cheese. The real magic comes from using mushroom stock, but vegetable stock can be substituted. You can find mushroom stock base in the supermarket or online. You can also make it yourself by simmering mushrooms, with or without celery, carrot, and onion.
Steps to make Mushroom Risotto:
- Bring stock to a simmer in a sauce pan. Add the dried mushrooms to to the cup of hot water and soak until softened and re-hydrated. Reserve the soaking liquid.
- Melt the butter in a deep, heavy, medium sized saucepan over medium-high heat. Add fresh mushrooms, re-hydrated mushrooms, onion and garlic or shallot. Saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add rice and stir to combine.
- Add wine and bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until liquid is reduced by half. Add the mushroom liquid, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring enough to prevent the rice from sticking to the pan. Once the liquid is almost completely absorbed, add the vegetable stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring almost constantly to create a creamy sauce. Wait until the stock is almost completely absorbed before adding the next 1/2 cup. This will take 25-30 minutes. The rice should be just cooked and slightly chewy.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with a generous dollop on mascarpone and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
