     1/2   c            Fresh basil leaves, torn
                        -(OPTIONAL)

  Soak dried mushrooms in hot water until soft, at least
  1/2 hour. Remove mushrooms with slotted spoon and
  strain liquid through cheesecloth into medium
  saucepan.  Add chicken broth, water,and wine; bring to
  a boil. Keep hot over low heat, covered.  Rinse
  mushrooms in water to remove all grit; chop into
  1/2-inch pieces.  Remove stem ends and seeds from
  tomatoes; chop into 1/2-inch cubes.  Cut flowerets
  from broccoli. Peel tough skin from stems with
  vegetable peeler; cut stems into 1/4-inch slices. Heat
  oil in 5-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat.  Add
  broccoli and saute until tender-crisp.  Transfer to
  bowl; cover, and keep warm. Add 2 tablespoons butter
  to Dutch oven; saute onion and garlic for 1 minute.
  Add rice; cook over medium heat, stirring, for 2
  minutes. Laddle simmering broth, 1/2 cup at a time,
  into rice mixture, while stirring. Alloe rice to
  absorb broth before adding more.  After 10 minutes,
  add mushrooms, and continue to cook, stirring, until
  rice is tender but firm, about 10 to 15 minutes
  longer. Rice should be creamy. Remove rice from heat;
  cover and keep warm. Melt remaining butter in medium
  skillet over medium heat. Add shrimp; cook, stirring
  constantly, until shrimp are just pink, about 3
  minutes. Remove from heat.  Stir tomatoes and broccoli
  into cooked rice. Add shrimp and pan liquid to rice
  and vegetable mixture; mix well. Cook over medium-high
  heat until heated through; remove from heat. Stir in
  basil, if desired. Serve immediately in warmed shallow
  soup bowls or deep plates.
  
  Makes 6 main-dish or 10 first-course servings.
