Directions:Pour 2/3 cup hot water over porcini in a heatproof cup and let stand until softened, about 10 minutes.
Lift porcini out of water, squeezing excess liquid back into cup, and rinse well to remove any grit.
Coarsely chop porcini. Pour soaking liquid through a paper-towel-lined sieve into a glass measure and reserve,
Meanwhile, bring broth and remaining 2 cups hot water to a simmer. Keep at a bare simmer, covered.
Heat 1 Tablespoon butter in a heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then saute porcini. Add reserved soaking liquid to skillet and boil, stirring, 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Cook onion in 1 1/2 Tablespoos butter in a 3-quart
heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 minutes.
Add rice and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Add wine and simmer, stirring constantly, until absorbed.
Stir in 1/2 cup simmering broth mixture and cook at a strong simmer, stirring frequently, until broth is absorbed. Continue simmering and adding broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and letting each addition become absorbed before adding the next, until rice is tender but still al dente
and creamy ( like thick soup), 18 minutes.
(There will be left over broth)
Stir in zest, mushrooms, remaining 1 1/2 Tablespoons butter, parmesan, parsley, and pepper to taste ( Thin if necessary with some of remaining broth)
Serve Immediately.
