Savory Mushroom Spread Food

SAVORY MUSHROOM AND PARMESAN PALMIERS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large, deep skillet. Add mushrooms, shallots, and garlic and cook over medium-high, stirring frequently, until just beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Tie bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, and tarragon together in a bundle with kitchen string and add to skillet. Add wine, Marsala, and 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. water and cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is evaporated, about 30 minutes. Remove herb bundle and stir panko, Parmesan, salt, and pepper into the mushroom mixture. Transfer mixture to a food processor and purée until smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry to a 9"x15" rectangle. Place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and freeze until firm, about 5 minutes. Spread mushroom purée evenly on puff pastry. Starting from one of the long sides, tightly roll pastry until you reach the middle. Repeat on other side. Gently stretch the log to 18" and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400°F and arrange racks in lower and upper thirds of oven. Line a second rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Cut the log in half crosswise, and cut each segment into 1/4" slices using a large sharp knife. Arrange slices on baking sheets at least 1" apart; brush with oil and sprinkle with flaky salt. Bake, rotating sheets top to bottom and back to front halfway through, until palmiers are golden and crisp, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely on baking sheets.

Add the mushrooms, shallots, garlic, and rosemary and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and brown, about 25 minutes. Add an additional tablespoon of butter, if needed, to prevent sticking. Carefully add the Cognac (if working over gas, pull the skillet from the heat), and simmer until the liquid is slightly syrupy.

MUSHROOM GALETTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. To a pan, add about a tablespoon of olive oil. Warm over medium heat and once hot, add in the onion slices. Cook until the onions begin to become golden along the edges and caramelize.
• Add the mushroom slices to the pan and cook for another few minutes until the mushrooms are tender. Turn off the heat and temporarily set the pan aside.
• Unroll the pie crust onto a baking sheet fitted with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Brush the egg white over most of the pie crust, leaving about a 1 1/2 inch perimeter bare. Let the crust rest for a minute for the egg white to slightly dry.
• Spread the ricotta cheese all over the area covered with the egg white. Use a zester to finely grate a little bit of parmesan cheese as a slight garnish over all the ricotta cheese. Add a small pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper, as well as the pinch of nutmeg, over the cheese.
• Distribute the mushroom-onion mixture all over the ricotta cheese, then top that with the shredded gruyere. Add the thyme leaves all over the top.
• Fold the edges of the pie crust over the mushroom filling, all along the edges. Brush the egg yolk over the pastry, then top the pastry with some of the finely grated parmesan.
• Bake the galette for 20-30 minutes. If you're using store-bought crust, it will typically look golden and be ready in the 20-25 minute mark, whereas homemade pastry can take up to 30 minutes.
• Let the galette rest for 10 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to your serving plate.
