Cooking For King Charles III - Wild Mushroom Risotto

I remember foraging for wild mushrooms with King Charles III and Antonio Carlucci on the 50,000 acre Balmoral estate. We came back and sautéed and froze enough wild mushrooms to last months for the royal table. In this video I am dehydrating wild mushrooms (they keep even longer) using the PARIS RHONE dehydrator and they have agreed to discount the price if you click on the link below and type in the code.

Here's the recipe; Wild Mushroom Risotto Makes 4 portions 2 cups dried mushrooms 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth 2 TBS olive oil 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice salt and pepper to taste 2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese ¼ cup fresh chopped fresh herbs Place the dried mushrooms in a bowl and pour two cups warm water over them rehydrate. Set aside for 30 minutes. Remove the mushrooms and the keep the liquid. In a heavy-bottomed pot add the rice and stir to coat the grains with butter. Add 2 full ladles of the chicken broth mixture to the rice. Stir and simmer over low heat until the liquid is absorbed, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the liquid from the mushrooms. Continue to add more broth one ladle at a time, stirring every few minutes. Each time, cook until the mixture seems a little dry before adding more. Add the wild mushrooms, Continue cooking until the rice is cooked through, but still al dente, nutty in texture, about 20 minutes total. When done, the risotto should be thick and creamy and not at all dry. Off the heat, stir in the cheese and sprinkle the chives on top before serving. www.theroyalchef.com
