Mincing the Garlic for Mushroom Risotto

Ingredients

Flat leaf parsley
Grana Parmigiano grated
Salt
Ground black pepper
1 clove of garlic
1 whole white onion
5 tablespoons of unsalted butter
2 cups of Arborio rice
3 1/2 cups of fresh chicken stock
1 pound of fresh porcini mushrooms

Instructions

1. Dice the onion and prep the parsley and place them both in bowls. Mince the garlic and prepare the mushrooms.


2. Add olive oil to a pan along with 2 tablespoons of butter. Lightly brown the mushrooms in the pan. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on top.


3. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and unsalted butter to another pan. Place the diced onions in it and sweat them. Add the crushed garlic and stir. Remove the garlic after two minutes.

 

4. Add the rice to the pan and stir constantly for 2 more minutes. Turn up the heat and add the wine, letting the rice absorb it. Add about 1/3 of the warm stock at a time. 


5. Start adding the mushrooms into the risotto and stock. When it gets nice and creamy, add cheese and butter. Stir constantly until it is all absorbed.


6. Shut off the heat and add the parsley. Plate and serve.

Hi, I am Sam, the chef of Pomodoro in Fairfax. Today, we are going to talk about Porcini Mushroom Risotto. We are going to prep our garlic. So, let's get started on our garlic. We have one clove here. What the recipe calls for is mincing the garlic, which I dont like. So, what we are going to do, is going to cut the root off. It's just a personal preference that I have. I just want the taste of the garlic, but I really dont want to see it in the dish. So, I'll turn that to later in our process, but right now I am going to show you how to prep it.

So, what we are going to do, is take our garlic and with the side of our knife, just crush and thats what we want. Our garlic has been prepped. The next item we are going to be prepping is our Porcini Mushrooms. We are going to be cleaning and slicing.
