Mushroom Risotto

This was my first attempt at risotto and I think it turned out pretty well. Brian kept saying how delicious it was. I could not find "poccini" mushrooms, so I used dried shitake. I am not sure why you have to use any dried mushrooms. I could see someone with childhood texture issues not liking them after they have been soaked in the warm water. At any rate, this Mushroom Risotta was very good and I will make it again.

Hey, weren't we suppose to make this when I was there? I am a little bummed out I missed it. Looks great!

Beautiful risotto and asparagus! I've tried risotto with dried mushrooms before and agree, I don't care for the taste and would just use the fresh mushrooms next time.
