Baked Salmon in Puff Pastry with Cremini Mushroom Duxelle Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 12

DUXELLE:
4 (4 to 6-ounces each) fresh wild Alaskan king salmon filets, skin removed
1 cup mushroom duxelle
1 (10-inch x 16-inch) (26-centimeters x 40-centimeters) sheet puff pastry
Salt, to taste
8 ounces (approximately 2 cups) fresh cremini mushrooms
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup shallots, finely diced
2 tablespoons white wine (or dry vermouth)
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup whipping cream

Steps:

  • Duxelles: Rinse and thoroughly pat dry cremini mushrooms before using a food processor or sharp knife to finely mince. Melt butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add shallots and sauté until soft. Stir in cremini mushrooms and simmer for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the mushrooms to cook down while their moisture evaporates. Add white wine, thyme and salt. Simmer for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in whipping cream. Use immediately or cover and refrigerate. Makes 1 cup. Note: I froze the remaining Duxelles, for a month. It thawed perfectly, and was delicious spread over puff pastry and rolled, sliced into pinwheels. Bake at 400°F for about 10 to 12 minutes. Elegant yet easy to prepare, salmon wellington makes a lovely entrée for a dinner party or evening in as the puff pastry parcels can be prepared and refrigerated for up to two hours before being baked. Wellington: Cut puff pastry into four equal 5-inch x 8-inch (13-centimeters x 20-centimeters) sheets. Approximate measurements are suitable. Spread 1/4 cup mushroom duxelle evenly onto each sheet of puff pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch (1 centimeter) margin at the edges. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each prepared pastry, seasoning each with a sprinkle of salt. Fold up edges in a lengthwise and press puff pastry together to seal a seam across the center of the salmon fillet. Flip pastry over so that seam is hidden and gently press the sides together to close. Note: I brushed an egg wash over each wellington, to give a lovely golden color to the pastry. Bake salmon wellington at 400°F (205°C) for 15 minutes. Lower heat to 325°F (165°C) and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until puff-pastry is flaky and golden brown. If using previously frozen salmon, allow fillets to completely thaw before assembling the salmon puff-pastry. Note: These can also be frozen, and then baked for a little extra time. I also tested reheating one of these, after they were baked, in a conventional oven (do not microwave), and they turned out just fine!

The salmon was perfectly cooked and the duxelle was delicious. However, the puff pastry was a bit too thick for my taste. Next time, I will try using a thinner puff pastry or making my own.
