  1. Soak dried slippery jack mushrooms in hot water for 30 minutes. Roughly chop and set aside. Reserve the soaking liquid.
  2. In a saucepan, combine vegetable broth and mushroom soaking liquid. Keep warm over low heat.
  3. In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of butter. Sauté the chopped onion with salt and pepper for 6–7 minutes. Add in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  4. Add the cremini mushrooms and cook 3–5 minutes, until mushrooms are tender and liquid evaporates.
  5. Stir in the rehydrated mushrooms, thyme, and parsley. Then add the rice and stir to coat. Toast for 1 minute. Begin adding the hot broth mixture 2 ladles at a time, stirring often. Allow each addition to absorb before adding more. Continue for 26–28 minutes, until the risotto is creamy and the rice is al dente.
  6. Remove from heat. Stir in ⅓ cup of Parmesan cheese and the remaining 1 teaspoon of butter. Serve topped with extra cheese, fresh parsley, and thyme. Enjoy!
