Turned out great. I served it with fresh roasted potatoes instead of polenta, and the stew was so rich that it didn't need parmesan either. One note on the mushrooms: I believe the author meant 4 oz. AFTER being reconstituted in water. This works out to ~0.5 oz when still dry. I used ~0.75 oz (dry) and the mushroom flavor was quite strong.
