Chef Notes: How to Reheat: Add the desired amount to a sauce pan and heat over low heat while adding in a ladle of chicken stock at a time until the risotto is heated up and creamy. You can also heat it in the microwave, but it will lose its creaminess. You can freeze risotto once cooled, covered for up. In Italy, risotto ai funghi, or Mushroom Risotto, is often made with fresh porcini mushrooms in season, but porcini can be hard to find elsewhere—and are always very expensive.

Steps to make Authentic Porcini and Cream Risotto:

1. Cover the dried porcini with lukewarm water (about 150 ml) and leave to sit for about 1 hour to rehydrate.
2. Chop the onion roughly. Crush the garlic with the back of your knife.
3. Line the sieve with kitchen paper.
4. After rehydrating squeeze out the excess water from the porcini and put onto a chopping board. Pour the soaking water through Step 3.
5. Cut the porcini to the size you like. I save some to garnish. This is optional though.
6. Mix the soaking water and water to make 600 ml of liquid. Pour the liquid into a pan with stock cubes.
7. Bring the stock to the boil and turn off the heat. Stir quickly and leave to stand.
8. Put the cold extra virgin olive oil and the garlic in a cold frying pan. Cook over a low heat until fragrant.
9. When the garlic from Step 8 is golden brown and fragrant, remove.
10. If you use the garlic oilomit Step 8 and 9. Go straight to Step 11. - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/154290-garlic-chips-and-garlic-oil
11. Add the onion to the oil in the pan and sprinkle in the salt and pepper. Cook over a low to medium heat until translucent.
12. When the onion is translucent add the rice. Fry the rice and coat each grain of rice with oil. Keep the heat low to medium.
13. When the rice from Step 12 is translucent and warm add the white wine.
14. Bring Step 13 to the boil and leave for 30 seconds. Add Step 5 and 7 to cover the content of the pan. Continue to cook over a low to medium heat.
15. Try not to touch the content of the pan from Step 14 to the end. If you are worried about burning, move the frying pan around.
16. When some of the liquid from Step 15 has evaporated add more hot stock to cover the content. * In this photo you can see some of the liquid has evaporated.
17. Repeat Steps 14 and 16 until the rice is cooked al dente.
18. It takes about 15 to 17 minutes from Step 14 until the rice is nicely cooked. Pour in about 2 ladles of 7 every time some of the liquid has evaporated.
19. Check if the rice is just before al dente to your taste 15 minutes after Step 14. If it is still hard continue to cook further.
20. Add A ingredients just before al dente to your taste and bring to the boil. Turn off the heat. Separate and save the porcini garnish.
21. Grate the parmesan cheese into Step 20 and stir gently. Season with salt and pepper.
22. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with black pepper to your taste.
23. This authentic risotto is very luxurious with fragrant porcini and its nice flavour…
24. Enjoy a restaurant-quality risotto at home.
25. Keep Step 7 over a low heat all the time. Keep simmering gently after Step 14.
26. Some of stock might be left. It differs according to the heat, how firm you like your rice, and the consistency to suit your taste.
27. If the stock runs out before the rice is cooked through, your heat is too high.

You can freeze risotto once cooled, covered for up. In Italy, risotto ai funghi, or Mushroom Risotto, is often made with fresh porcini mushrooms in season, but porcini can be hard to find elsewhere—and are always very expensive. Other wild mushrooms will work quite well. You can easily add cooked meat or vegetables to this risotto to make it a main dish. Try gently cooked asparagus, peas, mushrooms, or sausage.

Use Food to Boost Your Mood

A lot of us have been conditioned to think that comfort foods are terrible and should be avoided. However, if your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be super nourishing and good for you. There are several foods that, when you eat them, can boost your mood. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try some of these.

Eggs, you may be amazed to learn, are great at combating depression. Just be sure that you don’t throw away the yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can truly help you elevate your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–work better. Try to eat an egg and feel a lot happier!

Make several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be elevated by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The more of this chemical in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not just that but nuts, in particular, are a terrific protein food source.

Cold water fish are excellent if you wish to feel happier. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all high in omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain work a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you fight back depression.

Grains can be good for fighting a terrible mood. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all wonderful for helping you be in a happier state of mind. These grains can help you feel full for longer too, which can help your mood too. It’s not hard to feel depressed when you feel hungry! These grains can improve your mood as it’s easy for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your sugar levels which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is excellent for moods. You knew green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is found to be chock-full of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can basically stimulate brain waves. This helps raise your mental sharpness while calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you become healthier. Now you are aware that green tea can help improve your mood also!

Now you can see that junk food isn’t necessarily what you have to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try a few of these suggestions instead.
