Pork And Wild Mushroom Daube Food

FRESH AND WILD MUSHROOM STEW

Steps:

• Clean mushrooms, keeping colors separate, and trim tough stems. (Save stems for stock.) Slice mushrooms about 1/8-inch thick.
• In a wide skillet, warm 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium high heat. Add onion, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until onion has softened and browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Add 1 more tablespoon oil and turn heat to high. Add brown mushrooms, season lightly and stir-fry until nicely colored, about 3 minutes. Lower heat to medium. Add thyme, sage, red pepper and tomato paste. Add tomatoes, stir well, and cook for 1 minute. Season again with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour, stir to incorporate and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in reserved onions.
• Add 1 cup mushroom broth and stir until thickened, about 1 minute. Gradually add 1 more cup broth and cook for 2 minutes. Sauce should have gravy-like consistency; thin with more broth if necessary. Adjust seasoning. (May be prepared to this point several hours ahead and reheated.)
• Just before serving, put butter and 1 tablespoon olive in wide skillet over medium high heat. When butter begins to brown, add chanterelles, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 2 minutes, until cooked through and beginning to brown. Add garlic and parsley, stir to coat and cook 1 minute more. Add chanterelles to brown mushroom mixture and transfer to a warm serving bowl. Accompany with polenta or pasta if you wish.

CUMIN PORK ROAST WITH WILD MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Rub 3 teaspoons cumin over pork. Place in roasting pan. Roast pork until meat thermometer inserted into center registers 150°F, about 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, 1/2 cup shallots, garlic and 1 tablespoon jalapeño; sauté until mushrooms are very tender and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat. Add oregano or the Italian Seasoning and 1 teaspoon cumin. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Transfer pork to platter. Tent with foil. Add broth to roasting pan; scrape up any browned bits. Transfer to heavy medium saucepan. Add flour to wine in a jar and shake briskly. Add wine mixture, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon shallots and 1 teaspoon jalapeño into broth; bring to a boil, whisking until smooth. Stir in mushroom mixture and any accumulated juices from pork on platter. Boil until mixture thickens to sauce consistency, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Slice pork. Serve pork with sauce. And enjoy!

WILD MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Tip the wine and mushrooms into a small saucepan and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and leave to soak until cool, about 20 mins. Strain through a sieve over a bowl to reserve the wine, pressing the mushrooms with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Set the rehydrated mushrooms aside. Return the wine to the pan and pour in the stock. Bring to the boil and keep on a high heat until reduced by half, about 15 mins. Pour in the cream, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook until reduced by half again, about 10 mins.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the mushrooms. Heat the butter in a frying pan and fry the mushrooms until just golden. Carefully add the brandy and sizzle briefly, then squeeze in the lemon juice, remove from the heat and set aside. Stir the mushroom mixture into the reduced cream sauce along with any juices from the frying pan, then season. Will keep chilled for up to three days.

WILD MUSHROOM-STUFFED PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, place dried porcini mushrooms. Cover mushrooms with hot water; let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut pork roast horizontally to 1/2 inch from one long side without cutting all the way through (pork will open like a book); set aside. In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir about 1 minute or until tender.
• Drain porcini mushrooms well; chop. Add porcini and portabella mushrooms to butter in skillet; cook about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender. Stir in stuffing crumbs.
• Spoon mushroom mixture into opening in pork; close pork over stuffing and secure with string. Place stuffed pork in shallow roasting pan. Brush with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in center of thickest part of pork.
• Roast uncovered 45 to 55 minutes or until thermometer reads 150°F. Remove pork from pan; cover with foil and let stand 10 minutes until thermometer reads 160°F. Remove strings from pork before carving. Garnish with sage.
