Creamy Rice with Artichokes, Mushrooms & Pasta Spools<\/p><\/div>\n

Total time:\u00a0 1 hour, plus sofrito and aioli time.<\/p>\n

Adapted from Creamy rice with mushrooms, cuttlefish and artichokes<\/em> by Jos\u00e9 Andr\u00e9s<\/a>, this recipe contains no fish or meat. Daring Cooks’<\/a> August challenge.<\/p>\n

* 1 cuttlefish or substitute
\n* 2 Artichokes
\n* 6 Mushrooms
\n* 1 Bay leaf
\n* 1\/4 c of white wine
\n* \u201cSofregit<\/a>\u201d
\n* 1 cup short grain rice (Spanish types Calasparra or Montsant are preferred, but you can choose any other short grain)
\n* Water or Stock (use 1 \u00bd cup of liquid per \u00bd cup of rice)
\n* 3-4 saffron threads (or ground turmeric)
\n* Allioli<\/a> (optional)<\/p>\n

If using vegan pasta, skip steps 1 & 2. Prepare your pasta according to directions, and add to the dish near the end.<\/p>\n

1. Cut the cuttlefish in little strips.
\n2. Add 1 or 2 tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan and put the cuttlefish in the pan.
\n3. If you use fresh artichokes, clean and cut into eighths.
\n4. Clean the mushrooms and cut them into fourths.
\n5. Add a bay leaf, the artichokes and the mushrooms to the cuttlefish.
\n6. Saut\u00e9 until we get a golden color in the artichokes.
\n7. Put a touch of white wine so all the solids in the bottom of the pan get mixed, getting a more flavorful dish.
\n8. Add a couple spoonfuls\/scoops of sofregit and mix to make sure everything gets impregnated with the sofregit (I’ve used anywhere from 1\/4 c to 2 c).
\n9. Add all the liquid and bring it to boil.
\n10. Add all the rice. Let boil for about 5 minutes in heavy heat.
\n11. Add some saffron thread to enrich the dish with its flavor and color. Stir a little bit so the rice and the other ingredients get the entire flavor. If you\u2019re using turmeric or yellow coloring, use only 1\/4 teaspoon.
\n12. Turn to low heat and boil for another 8 minutes (or until rice is a little softer than \u201cal dente\u201d)
\n13. Put the pan away from heat and let the rice stand a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n

\"Creamy<\/a>

Creamy rice with mushrooms, artichokes & pasta spools; this time, with more sofregit!<\/p><\/div>\n

The first picture:
\n1. Vegan pasta loops shaped to look just like cuttlefish.
\n2. I cooked and ate my artichoke leaves and used the stock in place of fish stock.
\n3. I blended up my mushrooms in my food processor before adding them to the skillet (hence the excessive brown hue).
\n4. I’ve never owned white wine, and I found a “substitute” recipe that included lemon, vinegar and water.
\n5. I followed the instructions as best I could, and I used 1\/3 cup of my sofrito because it tasted so awesome.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The second picture:
\nSteps 1-4 same.
\n5. I used 2 cups sofrito, and then I stirred in 1\/4 cup of aioli.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
