I bought some procini mushrooms the other day to go into a risotto, but i'm not sure how much to use as i've never cooked with them before. I'm making a chestnut mushroom risotto tonight and wonder how much porcini to put in. They're in a 25g pack, the dried variety, (that cost £2 !) and i know they have a really strong flavour so was thinking maybe half the pack ???

But this ones uses 25g for 4 people, but it doesn't use real mushrooms

Look at a few recipes and use the one that most resembles the rcipe you're using. You'll know for next time if you want more or less
ETA: wrote 250g instead of 25g
