RECIPE:
Wild mushrooms and barbera risotto
Serves 6

5 1/2 C chicken Stock
2 T extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
Salt & ground pepper
1 1/2C Arborio rice
½ C Barbera
2T unsalted butter
1# mixed wild mushrooms
Salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 shallot, minced
½ C freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 T chopped fresh parsley
INSTRUCTIONS
1. In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a simmer.
2. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the onion, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Add the barbera and cook, stirring until the wine is absorbed. Add 1 C of the warm stock and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed. Continue adding the stock ½ C at a time, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed. Continue adding the stock ½ C at a time, stirring, until it is nearly absorbed between additions. The risotto is done when the rice is al dente and a thick creamy sauce. (About 20 minutes) Season with salt and pepper.
3. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt the butter. Add the mushrooms and shallot, season with S&P and cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned about 10 minutes. Scrape the mushrooms into the risotto and stir in the cheese and parsley.
