Instructions

In a medium saucepan, bring the bone broth, water, and soy sauce to a boil. Add the dried porcini mushrooms, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the porcini are tender, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the porcini with a slotted spoon, finely chop them, and keep the broth simmering on the stove.
Melt the butter in a large sauce pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add olive oil. Sauté the onions until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the cremini mushrooms, chopped porcini mushrooms, and garlic. Cook until mushrooms are tender and the moisture evaporates, roughly 5 minutes.
Stir in the Arborio rice and sauté for a few minutes to lightly toast. Pour in the white wine and cook, stirring frequently, until the wine is fully absorbed, about 2 minutes.
Add 1 cup of the hot mushroom broth and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often until the liquid is absorbed (about 3 minutes). Continue adding broth one cup at a time, stirring often, and cooking until rice is creamy and just tender, about 30 minutes total.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while warm and creamy.
