Casa Folino Porcini Mushroom Risotto is an Italian ready risotto featuring the rich, earthy flavor and distinctive woodland aroma of porcini mushrooms. Produced in Calabria, this easy-to-prepare risotto brings together Italian rice and one of Italy's most prized culinary mushrooms.
What Are Porcini Mushrooms?
Porcini are prized edible mushrooms known for their deep, earthy flavor and intense aroma. They are widely used in Italian cooking in risotto, pasta, soups, sauces, and other savory dishes where their distinctive mushroom character can take center stage.
Porcini & the Sila Mountains of Calabria
Casa Folino connects its porcini risotto to the culinary traditions of Calabria and the forests of the Sila, a mountainous area where porcini mushrooms flourish. The producer uses locally sourced porcini that are slowly dried to bring their characteristic woodland aroma to this ready risotto.
How to Serve Porcini Mushroom Risotto
Enjoy as a rich Italian first course or simple meal. Finish with Parmigiano Reggiano, butter, extra virgin olive oil, black pepper, or fresh parsley. For an even richer mushroom dish, add sautéed mushrooms or a spoonful of mascarpone at the end of cooking.
