Risotto ai Funghi Porcini

下ごしらえ

材料

作り方

手順

1. 1

   Place the dried porcini mushrooms in a heatproof bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Let them rehydrate for at least 15 minutes, until softened.

   約15 分

2. 2

   While the mushrooms rehydrate, gently warm the vegetable broth in a saucepan and keep it at a bare simmer over low heat.

   約5 分

   調理のヒント： Keeping the broth warm is crucial for maintaining the risotto's cooking temperature.

3. 3

   Once rehydrated, remove the porcini mushrooms from their soaking liquid, squeezing out any excess liquid. Roughly chop the rehydrated mushrooms. Strain the soaking liquid through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any grit, and reserve it.

   約5 分

   調理のヒント： The mushroom soaking liquid adds a lot of flavor, but straining is essential to avoid sandy risotto.

4. 4

   In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

   約1 分

5. 5

   Add the chopped shallots to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.

   約4 分

6. 6

   Add the minced garlic and chopped rehydrated porcini mushrooms to the pot and cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

   約2 分

   調理のヒント： Be careful not to burn the garlic.

7. 7

   Add the arborio rice to the pot and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until the edges of the grains become translucent.

   約1 分

   調理のヒント： This toasting step, called 'tostatura', helps the rice absorb liquid more evenly.

8. 8

   Pour in the dry white wine and stir until it is completely absorbed by the rice.

   約2 分

   調理のヒント： The alcohol evaporates, leaving behind a lovely flavor.

9. 9

   Begin adding the warm vegetable broth, one ladleful at a time, stirring continuously. Wait until each addition of broth is almost completely absorbed before adding the next.

   約15 分

   調理のヒント： Constant stirring helps release the starch from the rice, creating a creamy texture.

10. 10

    Halfway through adding the broth, add the reserved mushroom soaking liquid (ensure it is warm) to the risotto, continuing to stir and add broth as before.

11. 11

    Continue adding broth and stirring for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is al dente – tender but still with a slight bite in the center.

    約5 分

    調理のヒント： Taste the rice regularly to check for doneness.

12. 12

    Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the unsalted butter and grated Parmesan cheese.

    約1 分

    調理のヒント： This step is called 'mantecatura' and makes the risotto incredibly creamy.

13. 13

    Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Cover the pot and let the risotto rest for 5 minutes.

    約5 分

    調理のヒント： Resting allows the flavors to meld and the risotto to become even creamier.

14. 14

    Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
