    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.

    Adam mentioned how scalable risotto is. I once ended up having to serve 14 people so I set up a risotto buffet. A huge chafing dish of a vegetarian (not vegan) risotto at the beginning of a line of items that could be added, Mushrooms (3 kinds), Artichokes, Shallots, Peppers, and more fried and served to allow each guest to add as desired. 4 years later guests still rave about it.

Also sounds like you work in a grocery store, and if you're a person who buys those rotisserie chickens, your pressure cooker is also very handy for making a chicken broth from whatever you don't eat that is roughly 1000x better than anything money can buy. 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.

    When I was a kid many years ago living in Japan, we always had so much mushrooms especially fresh and dried shiitake. The thing was I hated the flavor of shiitake used for so many broths, and whenever we had hot pot I always asked for maitake or shimeji over shiitake. Now that my tastes have changed, I realized how much depth dried shiitake added to food.

    Adam, here's a trick you should know about. I saw a show from Japan where an expert on frozen food was featured as a guest, and he stated that frozen and thawed mushrooms are more umami than fresh mushrooms. I think I taste a difference, but I'm a sample size of one, but this is easy enough where it's not any trouble to try this. What might be happening is the ice crystals that form during freezing rupture the cells, and let more of the umami innards of those cells out. For those bits you trim off of your mushrooms, toss them in a bag, and freeze them. It doesn't matter if they get freezer burn, which is just freeze drying. Then use them in your stock. For your risotto, try freezing your cut mushrooms, then thawing them the next day and using those in your risotto.

      Yes! I think something like Phở would be ideal as part a kind of "fancy meal prep" series. The broth is the thing that takes ages, so is worth doing in a big batch and freezing in portions. I think you could easily make a broth that would be usable for Phở, ramen and Western soups: just tweak before use such as including star anise, cloves and ginger in the Phở broth before using (and of course the herbs, beansprouts, etc. in the bowl)

    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 used mushroom stock I got from a friend and added butter and cheese instead of vegan sour cream (which I didn't have on hand) and I gotta say! what a fantastic way for me to use mushrooms I got from the farmer's market! Marinating the big mushrooms yields such a delicious flavor, and without making the stock from scratch, this recipe took me about an hour and a half to make. It's flexible enough that this recipe could have a lot of ingredients or very few, and it's intuitive enough that I'm confident that I could make this again without having to look up the video the next time. So glad I found this!

    When buying fresh mushrooms, there might actually be your local producer. They are always so nice imo but keep the substrate off the mushrooms and the extra mycelium and you can grow some more of your own just as easily! Needs water and more substrate, look up growing substrate and temperature to get the imporant parts and they could even enhance your or your local garden, check compatibility with other plants

    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?
