Hi Karen - Can’t wait to hear what you think of it when you try it. And if you love mushrooms like we do, you might also be interested in another recent video where I blend mushrooms with cashew cream. Totally tasty! Happy holidays, Caroline
You are so welcome, Jane. Baking really does make it a lot easier, doesn’t it? And actually, I like the way it almost results in a blend between risotto and paella (with that crusty crust called a soccarat that is so adored here). Cheers, Caroline
I love risotto. When I lived in San Francisco, I would go have one of my favorite seafood risotto, on a cold, brisk night. Reminds me of those days. Looks so good!
Hi Jen - I had to use this video comment to reply to your messages about the Orange Date dressing video since I goofed and had to reupload it, losing your comments in the process. Sorry to hear about the surgery plan, hope it goes well. I’ll keep my fingers crossed so please keep me updated. I’ll be sending my best wishes your way! Cheers, Caroline
@@mediterraneanminutes Hi Caroline. Thank you. I often forget how to reply to replies. Lol. Thank you for your well wishes. I will keep you informed. It feels nice to know that someone that lives way far is thinking of me. You are such a neat person. Have a great day.
Hi Arlet! The brand is called ZYLISS and it really is very sharp and easy to use. I imagine you could find it online but I also recall seeing the same brand at TJ Maxx and Kohl’s from time to time so maybe you could find it at a retail store too. Cheers, Caroline
Hi Laura and thanks for the question. When looking for something similar, source out a whole grain “short” instead of long rice. Lundberg is a brand available in the US that sells whole grain short rice that I’m aware of. Or you might find an option online when you search for whole grain Bomba rice. Of course, this recipe will work with regular Bomba or Arborio, just not quite as fiber and nutrient rich but the healthy mushrooms can make up for that! Cheers, Caroline
@@lauragiannavola9597 Good luck with it. I used to buy Lundberg when I live in California but, of course, I have other great local options here since the rice region is my region. I hope it works for you, let me know how it goes! Cheers, Caroline
I love mushrooms and will have to try this soon!

Made this recipe today. How delicious! I added the juice of half a lime instead of the wine. Thanks Caroline!
What a great idea, Arlet. I’ll put that in my notes for whenever I’m out of wine and have a lime! Cheers, Caroline
I love risotto and I like baking it in the oven as well. This looks delicious. Thank you

What a beautiful dish!
Thanks, Wendy. And it’s as tasty as it looks! Hope you get the chance to try it while fall mushrooms are in season. Cheers, Caroine

Sounds yummy, Jennifer. And did I mention I used to live in Menlo Park so I get what you mean about great seafood paella in SF! Cheers, Caroline

@@jenniferstromsoe4924 Well, I’ll be thinking of you too! Take care!
@@mediterraneanminutes I appreciate you.
WhT a fantastic recipe! Thank you! Which garlic press are you using? It looks much sharper than mine 😅

Thanks Caroline! I will buy it from Amazon today!
where can I buy that type of whole grain rice?

Thank you! Found the Lundberg short grain brown rice on Amazon. Can't wait to make this!
