My favorite Friday night cook

Hi there, Reader,

Risotto on a weekday wasn't part of the plan. But I had portobello mushrooms that were headed for the trash bin, a handful of dried porcini that needed using, and that particular kind of tired cozy and warm sounds good.

All day stirring though? Not so much. Cue my minimal stir mushroom risotto. Big flavor with enough parmesan to satisfy my cheese-lover self.

I was so happy after eating I didn't mind having to clean up.

Thanks for being here,

p.s. I have a whole method for making risotto in advance that actually works. No gummy, no gluey. Just good risotto when you need to serve it.

p.p.s. I use my favorite risotto spoon for rice, veggies - pretty much all the time.
