BREADED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place enough vegetable oil into a deep frying pan on low-medium heat. (I generally place in enough oil so that the bottom half of my mushrooms are submerged. You can always add more.).
• You do not want the oil bubbling wildly. Adjust temperature accordingly when you place the mushrooms in (a low simmer is nice.).
• Wash mushrooms and cut off tips of stems.
• If the mushrooms are really big (such as stuffing mushrooms) cut them in half or even quarters. Otherwise, leave whole.
• Place flour, eggs and breadcrumbs into three large, separate Tupperware containers.
• Mix pepper, garlic powder and salt in with the breadcrumbs.
• Place mushrooms in with the flour. Cover and shake until mushrooms are well coated.
• Transfer mushrooms to Tupperware dish that has the beaten eggs in it. Cover and shake again until mushrooms are evenly coated.
• Lastly, transfer mushrooms to final Tupperware container that has the breadcrumbs in it. NOTE: It is better to do this step in two batches as sometimes if there are not enough breadcrumbs the mushrooms do not get a nice even coat and look instead like they are covered in a lumpy batter.).
• Place mushrooms in oil carefully and cook until bottoms are browned. Flip over and continue cooking until entire mushrooms are cooked through.
• Mushrooms are done when gently crisp and the breading no longer appears wet looking.
• Remove mushrooms with slotted spoon and place on plate lined with paper towel to drain.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese or dip them into your favourite sauce (such as Ranch).
• *Optional: add some additional herbs or Parmesan cheese to the breadcrumbs to give the recipe a more professional appearance like that in the restaurants.

MUSHROOM BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Boil 1 cup of water in a small saucepan. Add the dried porcini mushrooms and soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mushrooms to a cutting board and finely chop; set aside. Carefully pour remaining mushroom liquid into a large bowl, leaving any grit behind.
• In a large (12-inch) skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter over high. Add fresh mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 8 minutes. Lower heat to medium. Add sage, shallots and chopped porcini, and cook, stirring, until shallot is translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cognac, if using, season to taste with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Transfer to a plate.
• In the same pan, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add the leeks and a big pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until wilted, 5 to 7 minutes. Return the mushroom mixture to the pan and stir to combine with the leeks. Remove from heat.
• Add eggs to the large bowl with the mushroom liquid, and whisk to blend. Add cream, milk, cayenne, 1½ teaspoons salt and plenty of black pepper. Whisk thoroughly to combine, then add the Gruyère.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter, then add about 1/4 of the fresh mushroom mixture and arrange in an even layer. Arrange the bread slices on top in an overlapping pattern. Sprinkle the remaining mushroom mixture over top, tucking it in between the bread slices. Ladle the custard mixture over top, evenly distributing the cheese. Refrigerate, covered, overnight (see Tip).
• When ready to cook, remove the dish from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before baking. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Top the pudding with Parmesan and bake for 40 to 45 minutes until set in the center (it may puff a bit). Run it under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes to brown the top, watching carefully. Let sit 10 minutes, then serve warm, topped with additional sage if desired.
