Young Kitchen mushroom risotto

You've never made a delicious mushroom risotto before? No problem, we'll be happy to deliver the recipe to you free of charge: First, heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a pot and sauté 125 g of risotto rice in it. Then grab a bottle of white wine - not to drink, but to deglaze. Whereby... since you only need 100 ml for the risotto, you can relax and enjoy a glass. Meanwhile, the rice cooks down. Add 2 tablespoons of the mushroom risotto seasoning to 500 ml of hot water and stir it gradually. Take enough time for this, about 25 - 30 minutes. Yes, for a good risotto you need love and also a little patience. Then add the mixture to the risotto, stirring frequently. Finally, there is only one thing left to do: grate 40 g of Parmesan on top and add 1 tablespoon of butter to the risotto.

Not all rice is the same! You want to cook a delicious risotto - then choosing the right type of rice is definitely one of the first steps. Simply throwing the classic long-grain rice into the pot is not an option, of course. At least you won't get a risotto out of it. It's different with special risotto rice. This is because it contains more starch, which is precisely what gives it its special consistency when cooked, as some of the starch is released from the grain. In this context, the desired creamy and "sloppy" consistency is often mentioned.
