Yield Makes 6 first-course or 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups water
1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms*
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups arborio rice or medium-grain white rice (about 9 1/2 ounces)
3 large shallots, chopped
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 cups (or more) low-salt chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Special Equipment
pressure cooker

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups water to boil in heavy small saucepan. Add mushrooms. Cover; let stand until mushrooms soften, about 10 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to work surface; reserve soaking liquid. Chop mushrooms coarsely.
  • Melt butter with oil in pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Add rice, shallots, and fennel seeds; stir 1 minute. Add wine and cook until almost evaporated, stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Mix in 2 cups broth and salt, then mushrooms and reserved mushroom soaking liquid, leaving any sediment behind in pan. Lock lid in place. Bring to high pressure over high heat. Cook rice 4 minutes, adjusting heat as necessary to maintain high pressure. Quick-release pressure.
  • Slowly release lid, standing back and allowing steam to escape. Cook rice over medium-high heat until creamy and tender but still firm to bite, stirring often and adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if thinner consistency is desired, about 2 minutes. Mix in cheese and parsley. Season risotto to taste with pepper.
  • *Dried porcini mushrooms are available at Italian markets, specialty foods stores, and many supermarkets.

This risotto is a great make-ahead dish. You can make it ahead of time and then reheat it when you're ready to serve.

I added a few extra vegetables to the risotto, like peas and carrots. It made the dish more colorful and flavorful.

I used a dry white wine instead of the vermouth, and it turned out great. I think the dry wine gave the risotto a more subtle flavor.
