Mushroom risotto with porcini mushrooms

Mushroom risotto with porcini mushrooms is a classic of Italian cuisine. Delicately melting risotto rice is combined with roasted fresh and soaked dried porcini mushrooms, shallots, a little garlic, butter and Parmesan to create a wonderfully creamy dish full of umami and forest aroma. White wine adds a delicately fruity freshness, the broth provides aromatic depth and fresh herbs add color. The dish combines comfort, depth and finesse at a high level and is ideal as a main course that tastes of indulgence and conviviality.
