There is something so amazing about cooking something new and having it turn out perfectly. It's like you have just won an Oscar and a gold medal at the Olympics. Mushroom risotto is wonderful, especially in the fall when the porcini mushrooms are fresh, but this dish is delicious when made with dried mushrooms too. If you cannot find fresh or dried porcini, you can use other meaty, fragrant mushrooms (such as chanterelles/giroles or morels).
