MUSHROOM AND HERB CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of each baguette slice lightly with olive oil. Bake for 4 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the Gruyere evenly over the bread. Turn the oven to broil. Place the crostini back in the oven under the broiler until the cheese is melted.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, white wine and tamari. Cook until the mushrooms are soft and the liquid has evaporated. Finish with a small pinch of sea salt.

HERB GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Place whole unpeeled potatoes into a medium saucepan with cold water on medium heat. Bring the potatoes to a boil and cook for 20 to 25 minutes until soft enough to mash. Check with a knife to see if potatoes are cooked through and tender. Once ready drain the potatoes.
• When cool enough to handle peel each potato and cut into small pieces and pass them through a potato ricer over a medium size bowl. Add the flour, Parmesan, egg yolks, nutmeg, thyme, salt and pepper and mix into a doughy consistency adding more flour as needed. Transfer dough to a well floured surface.
• Using your hands roll pieces of the dough into a rope about 1/2-inch in diameter. With a knife cut the rope into 1/2 to 3/4-inch-long pieces. Flour the pieces as you cut them placing them on a floured baking sheet tray or lined with wax paper. Once rolled you can place the gnocchi in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap until ready to cook. When ready to cook place gnocchi in boiling salted water for about 1 to 2 minutes. They will rise to the top when done. Using a slotted spoon remove gnocchi from pot.
• For the sauce
• In a skillet add the butter and mushrooms and saute until nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the white wine and reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Add the cream and gently simmer for another 2 to 5 minutes. Once the sauce has simmered, add the gnocchi and cook for 2 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan.

SAVORY HERB-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

• Remove stems from mushrooms. Chop enough stems to make 1 cup. Melt 2 tablespoons margarine in saucepan. Brush mushroom cap tops with margarine, place top side down in shallow baking pan and brush undersides of caps. Heat remaining margarine in same saucepan. Add chopped mushroom stems, onion and garlic and cook until tender. Stir in cream cheese, combining with fork if necessary. Add Parmesan cheese, parsley and herb seasoned stuffing. Mix thoroughly. Spoon about 1 tablespoon stuffing mixture into each mushroom cap. Bake until heated through.

MINI MEATLOAVES WITH MUSHROOM-HERB ORZO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Pulse the bread with half of the mushrooms in a food processor until fine; transfer to a large bowl. Add the beef, egg, 1 tablespoon parsley, the paprika, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix with your hands until just combined. Form into four 3-by-4-inch mini meatloaves; transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo and cook as the label directs. Reserve 3/4 cup cooking water, then drain the orzo.
• Slice the remaining mushrooms. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until they just start browning, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the sage and season with salt and pepper; cook until the mushrooms are tender, 1 to 2 more minutes. Stir in the orzo.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the remaining 3 tablespoons parsley and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Gradually add the reserved cooking water as needed to loosen; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the meatloaves with the yogurt and sprinkle with paprika. Serve with the orzo.

SPAGHETTINI WITH BACON, MUSHROOMS AND HERBS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the onion, garlic, red pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until the mixture is brick red, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. When the water boils, add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 6 minutes. Meanwhile, add 1 cup of the cooking water to the skillet with the sauce; stir and bring to a low simmer over medium heat. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and add to the skillet along with the butter and herbs. Cook, tossing, until the pasta absorbs some of the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the reserved cooking water to loosen, if needed. Divide among bowls and top with cheese. Photograph by Andrew Purcell

SAUTEED MUSHROOMS WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook mushrooms, cap sides down, without stirring, until caps are caramelized, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium. Toss mushrooms, and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until mushrooms are well browned, about 5 minutes more. Add garlic, butter, and thyme. Cook until garlic is golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add wine. Return skillet to heat, and cook until wine is evaporated, about 4 minutes. Garnish with parsley. Serve warm.

FRENCH HERB-MARINATED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are just soft, about 6-8 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in the vinegar (or white wine), lemon juice and zest, garlic, herbes de Provence, thyme, and bay leaves. Pour over the remaining olive oil and season with sugar, salt and pepper.
• Transfer to a medium bowl and allow to cool at room temperature; then sprinkle with fresh snipped parsley and toss gently to combine. Cover and chill for at least one hour. -Or- pack mixture into a glass container, seal, and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve chilled, warm, or at room temperature. Makes 1 pint.

HERB AND MUSHROOM OMELETTE

Steps:

• Cut mushrooms into slices of desired size.
• Chop small white onion into pieces.
• Melt 1/4 tablespoon butter in a small pan over medium heat. When the melted butter has coated the pan, add the mushroom slices and onions. Sprinkle the basil over the ingredients in the pan and stir. Saute over medium heat until the mushrooms start to turn brown on the edges, about 10 minutes. When done, put to the side.
• While the mushrooms and onions are cooking, break the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the pinches of salt and pepper. Using a fork, wisk the eggs until the yolk is just mixed with the whites.
• THE NEXT STEPS MUST BE DONE AFTER PREPARATION IS COMPLETE, AS IT GOES VERY QUICKLY (< 1 MINUTE).
• On high heat, melt a table spoon of butter in a pan that has a cooking surface of about 7 inches in diameter.
• When the butter stops foaming and is about to turn brown, add the egg mixture into the pan.
• Quickly, whisk the egg in the pan until it looks like a broken custard material. Add the cheese and mushroom/herb mixture from before and let cook for another 10 to 15 seconds.
• Use the fork to make sure the omelette didn't stick to the pan.
• Use the fork to flip the edge of the omelette up, and hold the pan at 45°. Use the fork and the pan itself to make the omelette roll down on itself. This technique is tricky and requires some practice, but if done right, the omelette can just roll onto a plate.
• Garnish with parsley if desired.
• *NOTE* - I use American cheese because it melts fast, but it is entirely possible to use other types of cheese, but take a grater to it first. Enjoy!

ROASTED HERBY MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Arrange the mushrooms in a roasting tray in a single layer, then cook for 15 mins. Meanwhile, mix the garlic, rosemary, olive oil and vinegar with some seasoning. Remove mushrooms and pour away any liquid, then toss in the oil and herb mix. Return to the oven for 10-15 mins more until tender. Scatter with the parsley before serving.
