mushrooms really infuses the rice because you cook them together as the rice cooks

Nice helpful video. So many people don't realize they must add HOT broth little by little when making risotto and wonder why it doesn't turn out like the risotto in an Italian restaurant. You just unlocked the mystery for many!!!
