We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

God Himself does not propose to judge a man until he is dead. So why should you?

Meats, Dairy Italian Frugal03 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

1 oz Dried mushrooms
(such as porcini; boletus, or cepe)
3 tb Butter
2 tb Olive oil
1/4 Yellow onion; coarsely chopped
1 1/2 c Italian Arborio rice; raw
3 c Chicken stock; fresh or canned
1 c Champagne or dry white wine
1/2 c Whipping cream
Salt; to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Soak the mushrooms in 1 cup of hot water until soft, about 1 hour. Drain
and use the liquid for some other purpose, perhaps a soup stock. Do not use
the mushroom water in the risotto because it will cover the flavor of the
cream and wine. Chop the mushrooms. Heat a 4-quart heavy saucepan and add
the butter, oil, onions and mushrooms. Cook until the onions are clear,
then add the rice. Stir carefully so each grain is coated with the oil. In
a separate pan bring the chicken stock to a simmer. Add 1 cup of the stock
to the rice, stirring to ensure a nice creamy dish. Continue adding broth
as it is absorbed. When stock is absorbed add the champagne and continue to
cook, stirring gently. When the rice is beginning to become tender add the
cream and cook until the rice is tender but still a bit chewy. Taste for
salt and serve immediately. This recipe serves 4 to 6 as a first course.
Comments: Shall we talk about rich foods? In Italy cream and champagne
belong together, as this recipe proves.
