Porcini risotto recipe, this classic Italian porcini risotto is made with fresh porcini, white wine and parmesan cheese, it can be made with dried porcini too, flavorful and delicious!
I was lucky to find fresh porcini at my farmer’s market, lots of recipes came to my mind but nothing beats fresh porcini risotto, it’s so easy and quick to make.
How to make risotto:
- First, choose the right rice, risotto is made with large coarse grains, two brands come right on top: Carnaroli and Vialone, my favorite is Carnaroli and it's the one I used for this recipe
- What makes a risotto creamy: the butter and parmesan cheese are what makes risotto creamy, heavy cream is rarely used in risotto
- Have ready 1 liter (4 cups) of hot vegetable or chicken broth, broth will be added slowly, ladle by ladle until the risotto is cooked and tender, I used a little over 3/4 liter (3 cups), watch your risotto all along while cooking, it takes 15 to 20 minutes to be ready
- Once the risotto is cooked through, remove from the heat, add 50 g. parmesan cheese, stir to incorporate, add the porcini, toss to distribute, add a few tbsp. of remaining broth if needed to make the risotto creamier
- I used 350 g. (12 oz) or two heaping cups chopped fresh porcini, if you can’t find fresh porcini, you can substitute with 30 g. rehydrated dried porcini, in this case add the rehydrated porcini into the rice together with the second ladle of broth
- I pan fried the chopped fresh porcini with 2 tbsp. olive oil and a garlic clove for about 10 minutes then set them aside
- Serve immediately
