Crostini Bar: Mushroom “Paté”
Serve this alongside Rachael's Crostini Toasts.
Ingredients
- 1 stick butter
- 2 pounds coarsely chopped crimini or mixed mushrooms
- A few sprigs of thyme, chopped
- 3 shallots, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, sliced
- Salt and lots of coarse black pepper
- 1/2 cup Marsala or sherry
- Finely chopped parsley, for garnish
- Cornichons, halved
Yields: Makes 2 1/2 cups
Preparation
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and brown, 10 minutes. Add thyme, shallots and garlic, and cook 10-12 minutes more, until mushrooms are very dark and shallots very tender. Season with salt and pepper.
Deglaze the pan with the Marsala or sherry. Transfer everything to a food processor and pulse to process the mushrooms into a coarse paste. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with parsley. Serve with charred or toasted bread and cornichons.
