This version of the risotto is cooked with an Asian touch using Japanese rice and tamari soy sauce as part of the dressing. It is rich and creamy just like the original Italian -style risotto, but it seems lighter without cheese.

The combination of shiitake and bacon mushrooms adds a robust taste of umami, making this dish irresistibly delicious. It is perfect alone or okay with any type of dish.
