Ingredients
- 5 cups Chicken Broth
- 1 cup Water
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1/4 cups Butter, Divided Use
- 1 pound Fresh Shiitake Mushrooms, Stems Discarded And Caps Sliced 1/4 Inch Thick
- 1 whole Small Onion, Finely Chopped
- 1-1/2 cup Arborio Rice
- 1/2 cups Dry White Wine
- 1 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, Grated
Method
- 1. Bring broth and water to a simmer in a 4-quart pot; keep broth at a bare simmer, covered.
- 2. Heat oil with 1 tablespoon butter in a 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderately high heat. Add mushrooms and saute, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a bowl.
- 3. Cook onion in 2 tablespoons butter in saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add rice and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine and cook, stirring, until wine is absorbed, about 1 minute.
- 4. Ladle in 1 cup simmering broth and cook at a strong simmer, stirring, until broth is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Continue simmering and adding broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and letting each addition be absorbed before adding next, until rice is just tender and looks creamy, 18 to 20 minutes. (Save leftover broth for thinning.)
- 5. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup cheese, remaining tablespoon butter, and salt and pepper to taste. Gently stir in mushrooms, then cover pan and let stand 1 minute. If desired, thin risotto with some of remaining broth. Serve immediately with remaining cheese on the side.
