Mushroom risotto
This risotto is made in the traditional “all’onda” (wave risotto) method, typical of Northern Italy. It creates a dense and creamy risotto, meaning the risotto moves almost like an ocean ‘wave’ from the thickened texture of the rice.

Braised mushroom noodles
Mushrooms also pair wonderfully with noodles, forming a delectable fusion of earthy umami flavours. Microwaving the mushrooms beforehand not only helps drain excess fluid but also prevents them from absorbing too much oil.
