    My old video about why dried mushrooms are so much stronger than fresh: • Dried mushrooms are na...
    **RECIPE**
    1/2 cup (100g) risotto rice per portion (arborio, vialone nano, canaroli, etc)
    1 pound (454g) fresh mushrooms per portion (get some big ones, like king trumpet, to use for garnish, and some smaller ones to put in the rice)
    1 handful of fragrant, cheap dried mushrooms per portion
    1 big shallot for every two portions
    a couple garlic cloves per portion
    olive oil
    vinegar (I used white balsamic but anything is fine)
    white wine (optional)
    cognac or any other barrel-aged spirit (optional)
    butter (optional)
    parmesan cheese (optional)
    vegan sour cream (if you're not using dairy)
    truffle oil (optional)
    fresh herbs for garnish (I used tarragon, but thyme or sage would be nice)
    bay leaves (optional, no idea if they do anything)
    mustard seeds (optional)
    salt
    pepper
    First make the mushrooms stock. Combine the dried mushrooms and a few bay leaves with about 2 cups (473mL) water per portion, a big pinch of salt per portion, bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 30-60 minutes, strain out the solids and discard them. (If there was a lot of sand on the dry mushrooms, you can either pass the stock through a coffee filter or just let the sand settle on the bottom and pour off everything but the last little bit.)
    Prepare the fresh mushrooms by cleaning off any dirt and trimming off any woody stems. The large mushrooms that you plan to use for garnish, cut in half lengthwise and, optionally, score the cut sides like I do in the video. Marinate those with a little olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper. The smaller mushrooms, cut down in size if necessary to make them all about the same size and so they'll cook quickly and blend in well with the rice.
    Peal and dice the shallot. Crush and peal the garlic but do not chop it.
    You can either cook the fresh mushrooms in advance, or do it while the rice is cooking, like I do in the video.
    When the stock is done and you're a half hour out from dinner, fry the shallots for a minute in some olive oil over moderate heat. Stir in a big pinch of mustard seeds per portion and let them fry. When the shallots have softened a little, stir in the dry, unwashed rice and fry it for a minute. Deglaze with enough white wine to just cover the rice and stir until absorbed. (If you're not using white wine, maybe spike the mushroom stock with a little splash of that white balsamic vinegar per portion and use that instead.)
    Pour in enough of the mushroom stock to cover and let the rice cook, stirring occasionally, until the grains are just a little crunchy, adding stock as needed, 15-20 minutes. If you run out of stock, water is fine.
    While the rice is cooking, heat a thick layer of olive oil in a pan over moderate heat and put in the big marinated mushrooms, cut-side down. When the cut sides have browned, flip the mushrooms over, put in the garlic cloves, and use a spoon to baste garlicy hot oil over the mushrooms until they've shrunk at least by a third and they look cooked. If you're down with dairy, I'd melt some butter into the pan for the basting stage. Leaving the hot fat in the pan, remove the mushrooms to a plate and take out the garlic cloves before they burn.
    Put the smaller mushrooms into the pan, season with a little salt and pepper, and cook until brown and shrunk by at least a third. Deglaze with a little cognac (or white wine, or stock, or water), coat the mushrooms in the resulting syrup and turn off the heat.
    When the rice is almost done, turn off the heat, stir in the smaller mushrooms and as much butter and grated cheese as you want. If you're not using dairy, try cook the risotto so that it looks a little too dry at this stage and enrich with a one or two big scoops of vegan sour cream per portion (it will add moisture, which is why it's good to start with a slightly dry risotto). Tear in the fresh herbs, stir, taste for seasoning and add salt/pepper if necessary. Stir in a little water/stock if the risotto is looking too tight.
    Scoop the rice onto plate, smooth off the surface and garnish with the bigger mushrooms. Serve with steak knives to cut the bigger shrooms.

    i used to work in a restaurant that had that on the menu and though i personally never cooked that dish, i often ordered it from the menu and just seeing them has brought back many fond memories of my early years in cooking . now i want to go get these mushrooms and do some experiments.

One leaves the starch in entirely. The other washes it off and then adds it back in little by little, and would still be lacking some of the starch if it didn't require all of the stock. Cooking is a science, so even small changes, even simply the order in which you add ingredients, can change the end result. Now I'm not saying that it would be different, but it does make me curious if it could, and if so, how.

    WHY do people act like bay leaves “don’t do anything?” They have an extremely noticeable flavor that stands out any time they’re used in a dish. It’s like randomly throwing a bunch of thyme into dishes and saying “maybe this will do something.” Of course it will do something. It’s an extremely flavorful herb.

      I always thought that they were some obligate ingredient, but really didn't do anything. Then, I made a batch of pickled eggs (a holiday staple in my family) and decided to throw a few into the brine. At first, I was delighted. They were better than usual, in a way I couldn't place. Unfortunately, after marinating for about two weeks, they turned bad. I realized that they'd gotten too much bay leaf, and I understood what a powerful flavour it is for the first time. It took over everything. I now know and respect how powerful the bayleaf is

    I’d try this and everything about it sounds great but I’d skip finishing with truffle oil. It’s not turning my nose up at it bc it’s not real truffles, it’s just that the taste gets overpowering after a couple bites and ruins what it’s on. Truffle oil only takes the main compounds of what gives truffles their flavor so it doesn’t have the same complexity, it’s just overbearing. It’s the equivalent of taking a fancy French dessert that you worked hard on and using fake vanilla in it. I think the flavor of the mushrooms would be good as is. Why mask the flavor you just worked so hard to cultivate?

I bought some barley after your videos on whole grain carbs, and decided to wing it. As I combined the (pasta) mushroom sauce and the barley, it turned super creamy and I realized what I had wrought. I quickly adjusted the seasoning and it came out brilliantly.

    Those trumpet shrooms are great for stir fries, fry+quick stews. I do not think you need to trim as much, just the tiny alien bits, and then cut them into long strips (toughness is something to consider). Cook with whatever veggies that you like that cook easily (carrots, celery roots or stems). Can have chicken pieces. Might be good to add like a bit of corn starch slurry thing to thicken it up.
    A lot of the creamyness you see in Adam's dish can be applied to basically a stir fry veggy dish rather than risotto rice. Having the shroom stock from the very shrooms you cook is definitely a great idea, adds ton of flavor. As long as the shrooms are not champignon, the stock can be very powerful.

    I recently picked up a trick from Kenji that you can "rinse" the rice with stock and/or white wine before toasting the rice in fat, making sure to keep the liquid you rinsed the rice with. Then add that starchy liquid as the first dose of liquid, letting you toast the rice as long as you want without risk of losing the thickening ability of rice. Really does a great job.

    I tried King trumpet mushrooms after you mentioned this dish on one of your podcasts. I don't know how I screwed up, but they were rubbery and chewy. They also had little to no flavor even though I seasoned them well and sauteed in butter. I definitely want to try again, but none of my guests enjoyed the trumpet mushrooms. I will say that I took a bite of a raw trumpet mushroom and it was delicious raw, far more so than it was cooked. It had a sweet aftertaste which was completely lost in cooking. Now I'm thinking about taste testing every different mushroom I can get my hands on (which is tricky since I live in a desert), in various different states of cooked and uncooked to see what subtle differences there are.
    Side note: wheat is an auto immune trigger for me, so I'd love to see your take on any gluten-free recipes. Alton Brown for example has switched some of his recipes over to gluten-free because some non-wheat flours have Superior qualities to wheat for certain dishes.

    • @aragusea
      @aragusea  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Extra virgin olive oil marketed as "peppery" or "grassy" is usually made from younger, greener olives and will have a green tint. It has a stronger flavor that can be a little bitter and harsh on its own, but really sings in combination with other things. It's also probably healthier for you, being filled with antioxidants (which contribute the slightly bitter taste).

    • @arieldahl

      It’s worth mentioning that in professional olive oil tastings (these exits) color and clarity are traits that are ignored.
      They purposely use dark blue glass cups so that you can’t easily judge those traits.
      Most traits they go for is the smell, the taste, the back-smell (the sensation of compounds that go up from the throat and to the sinuses and olfactory receptors from behind) and lastly the aftertaste.

Boil that down and you've got a thick, Jello-like substance (demi-glace) that is practically exploding with flavor. All from a carcass that most people mindlessly throw in the garbage.

My mom usually makes pho broth in the instant pot, doesn't come out the best looking but still delicious and doesn't require much work. Also instead of grilling the aromatics on coal or stove, put those in an airfryer.
