Risotto comes from the Italian word “riso”, which means “rice” in English. Now, you can’t talk about risotto without mentioning its main ingredient, which is rice of course. Since the introduction of the grain, rice farming has been a major part of life for many Italian families.

Trader Joe’s Mushroom Risotto is imported from Italy and made by one of the best. The dish is authentic, creamy, savory, and extremely delicious. The “riso” is parcooked and combined with cream, slices of mushroom, onion, garlic, and extra Porcini mushroom seasoning. For a complete Italian dinner, light some candles, dim the lights and offer Trader Joe’s Mushroom Risotto with a side of Ciabatta and EVOO for dipping. Make the Risotto the star on the table as a main entree and serve with a Caesar side salad.
