Risotto, with Porcini Mushrooms, Premium

Rissotto with porcini mushrooms and italian arborio rice. Italy is Europe's largest producer of rice. The wetlands and cool temperatures of the Lombardi region harbor the ideal conditions for lush rice fields. Resourceful Italians combined rice with many other items common to their area and developed a dish they lay claim to. It is known as risotto. Rich, creamy risotto is one of Northern Italy's gastronomic delights. The key ingredient in authentic risotto is the short, thick grained rice known as Arborio. This rice is the perfect grain for risotto because its texture and cooking properties allow it to retain firmness throughout preparation. Risotto should always be prepared al dente which means tenderyet firm to the bite. Alessi Risotto Con Funghi Porcini offers a most unique blend of flavor. Funghi Porcini are a particular type of mushroom found throughout woodlands beneath pine trees. They are known for their woodsy, aromatic scent and are a wonderful addition to this Italian favorite. This skits a wonderful accompaniment to most grilled meats, especially lamb. www.alessifoods.com. Try our other authentic risottos and buon appetito!
