I summer in northern Michigan and find the morels that grow wild up there just irresistible, but never pick mushrooms if you are not 100% sure they are safe to eat. If morels are not available, I use whatever mushrooms I can find at the supermarket. If you like crumble some goat cheese over the top. The tarts can be used as a vegetarian entree or an appetizers.Jennifer Condreay, Centennial, Colorado Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds sliced fresh assorted mushrooms |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1/2 cup butter |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup white wine or dry vermouth |
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |
1 package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed |
1 egg yolk |
1 teaspoon water |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in butter and oil in batches until tender. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in the wine, thyme and salt. Cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in cream. Cook for 10 minutes until thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside.
