Directions: |
Directions:Soak Mushrooms in warm water for 30 minutes, drain and chop, reserving liquid.
Place Chicken stock and mushroom liquid in a saucepan and heat to just simmering.
Meanwhile, add oil to a large saucepan; add onion, garlic and chopped mushrooms. Saute on low heat until onion is just translucent. Add rice, stir to coat it with the oil and continue cooking until rice is just turning to a light brown color.
Slowly add hot broth, one quarter cup at a time, to the rice mixture. Stir constantly. When liquid is absorbed, slowly add another quarter cup. Continue like this until all broth is added and absorbed. The rice mixture should be creamy and somewhat liquid. Remove from heat and add Parmesan cheese. Stir and serve immediately. This dish does not wait well for dinner. It will lose its creaminess and become too sticky. |

Notes: Be sure the broth is hot when you add and be patient with this one. It is so much better when you do not rush.
