RISOTTO WITH WILD MUSHROOMS AND SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Place a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle with a 2-count of oil. When the oil is hot, sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper and brown well on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover to keep warm while you make the risotto.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Drizzle in another 2-count of olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until soft. Toss in the mushrooms and herbs and cook until the mushrooms lose their liquid and are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the rice and stir 2 minutes to coat with the oil; the grains will turn opaque. Season again. Stir in the wine and cook 1 minute to evaporate the alcohol.
• Now pour in 1 cup of the warm stock and stir with a wooden spoon until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid. Add another cup of stock. Continue in this way, stirring constantly and adding the stock 1 cup at a time, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more. (You may not need all of the stock; the risotto is done when it is slightly firm but creamy.) Fold in the scallops with the last cup of stock to warm them up. When the risotto is cooked, fold in the butter and cheese, and drizzle with a little more olive oil. Serve hot. Garnish with parsley.

MUSHROOM AND SHRIMP RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring chicken broth to a boil over medium heat. Add rice, reduce heat, and simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp and saute until bright pink on the outside and the meat is opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving any garlic and juices in the skillet.
• Saute mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, and garlic in the same skillet until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add remaining 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
• Stir shrimp and risotto into the vegetable mixture. Transfer to a 9x13-inch pan, top with Parmesan cheese, and cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

WILD MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Coat a large saute pan generously with olive oil and add the smashed garlic cloves. Bring to a medium-high heat. When the garlic cloves have begun to brown and are very aromatic remove and discard them. Add the assorted fresh mushrooms to the pan and season with salt. Saute the mushrooms until they are soft and pliable. Turn off the heat and reserve.
• Using your hand, carefully scoop the porcini mushrooms out of the hot water. (At this point the water should have cooled off significantly. If it is still too hot for your hand, use a slotted spoon.) Pour the top 2/3 of the mushroom water into another container and reserve for use while making the risotto. Discard the bottom third. It contains a lot of sand and dirt from the mushrooms. Puree the rehydrated mushrooms with a little of the reserved mushroom water to make a smooth mushroom paste. This will not look good but it will certainly taste good! Reserve.
• Coat a large saucepot abundantly with olive oil. Add the onions and season generously with salt. Bring the pot to a medium-high heat. Cook the onions, stirring frequently until they are very soft and aromatic but have no color. Add the rice and stir to coat with the olive oil. Cook the rice for 2 to 3 minutes to toast, stirring frequently. Add wine to cover the surface of the rice and stir frequently until it has completely absorbed. Add the reserved mushroom water and then add chicken stock until the liquid has covered the surface of the rice. Stir frequently until the stock has absorbed into the rice. Repeat this process 2 more times. Check for seasoning, you probably will need to add salt.
• During the third addition of stock, add the reserved sauteed mushrooms and 2 tablespoons of the pureed porcini mushrooms. When the stock has absorbed into the rice and the rice is cooked but still "al dente", remove the pot from the heat. Add the butter and cheese and whip until well combined. This will set the perfect consistency of the rice. The rice should flow and not be able to hold its shape and look very creamy. Serve immediately garnished with chives.

BAKED WILD MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a large cast-iron or saute pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil, leek, onions and a pinch of salt. Cook until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 minutes until tender and slightly brown.
• Add the rice and cook until the kernels are well coated with the oil and mushrooms, about 2 minutes. Add wine, balsamic vinegar, broth and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil and then remove from heat. Transfer the mixture to a deep 9x13-inch baking dish. Wrap the top tightly with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Bake for 30 minutes until the rice is tender but al dente.
• Remove baking dish from oven and add the Parmesan and sage. Stir, adjust seasoning if necessary and serve immediately.

RISOTTO WITH WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Cut the mushrooms into one-inch pieces. There should be about four cups.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until the onions are wilted. Add the rice and cook, stirring, about one minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring, about two minutes or until the wine is absorbed.
• Add the four cups of simmering broth and cook over moderately high heat.
• Heat four tablespoons of the oil in a skillet and add the garlic and bay leaves. Cook briefly and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about two minutes, and sprinkle with salt, pepper and parsley. Cook about one minute more, stirring, and remove the garlic clove and bay leaves.
• When the rice has cooked eight minutes, add the mushrooms. Continue cooking, stirring often from the bottom, about two to five minutes, or until the rice is creamy but with the grains slightly resilient to the bite. Sprinkle with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and stir. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pot.
• Heat broth in separate pot.
• Saute onion in the oil until it takes on a little color.
• Add rice to the onion and stir until well coated.
• Add the wine and stir; let the wine cook away, about 2 minutes.
• Add about a cup of simmering chicken broth to the rice and cook over high heat, stirring often, until broth has been absorbed. Repeat procedure, this time adding all the mushrooms as well as the broth. While stirring, continue adding broth as it is absorbed into the rice. You may need more or less than four cups to achieve a creamy consistency while the center of the rice is still firm.
• When rice is done and there is still enough broth left in the rice to make it slightly runny, stir in the cheese. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Add white wine and vermouth and stir until liquid is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add 3/4 cup warm chicken broth; stir until almost all broth is absorbed, about 1 minute. Continue adding broth by 3/4 cupfuls, stirring until almost all broth is absorbed before adding more, until rice is halfway cooked, about 10 minutes. Stir in sautéed mushrooms. Continue adding broth by 3/4 cupfuls, stirring until almost all broth is absorbed before adding more, until rice is tender but still firm to bite and risotto is creamy, about 10 minutes.
