I haven't dried and rehydrated risotto, but I make risotto frequently. I use a pressure cooker for cooking (cooks to perfection in 10 minutes). I usually use chicken broth and a little white wine (3 1/2 cups broth, 1/2 cup white wine), a dash of salt, dried mushrooms, bell peppers and italian sausage. Absolutely delicious... might even make it for dinner tonight!
