Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms*
2/3 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
6 ounces crimini (baby bella) mushrooms, halved or quartered if large
6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, sliced
2 tablespoons minced shallot (about 1 large)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1 13- to 14-ounce Brie (about 5 inches in diameter; preferably in wooden box)
1 baguette, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices

Steps:

  • Rinse dried porcini to remove any grit. Place porcini and wine in small saucepan. Bring to simmer over low heat; remove from heat. Let soak until soft, about 20 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer porcini to work surface and coarsely chop. Line strainer with damp paper towel; strain wine into small bowl and reserve.
  • Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add crimini and shiitakes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until brown, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Add shallot and stir until soft, about 1 minute. Add chopped porcini and strained wine. Boil until almost dry, about 1 minute. Stir in thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cool.
  • Remove Brie from box, discarding lid and paper. Using sharp knife, cut top rind from Brie; discard. Return Brie to box. (Alternatively, stack two 12-inch rounds of foil and fold up around bottom and sides of Brie, crimping foil at edges, leaving top exposed.) Mound mushroom mixture atop Brie. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before continuing.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Place Brie with mushrooms on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until cheese begins to melt and mushrooms are warmed through, about 15 minutes. Transfer Brie in box to plate. Serve hot with baguette slices.

BAKED BRIE WITH MUSHROOMS AND THYME



Baked Brie With Mushrooms and Thyme image

This is a wonderfully indulgent appetizer! I sometimes roast 2 heads (not cloves) of garlic and let my guests spread some garlic on the bread before spreading the cheese on...divine!! Tho the recipe calls for brie in a box, I usually buy a round of Brie and put it into a small oven-proof dish. I have also used minced green onions instead of the shallots with good results. If the baby bella shrooms are large, cut them into quarters.To cut the top off the round of Brie more easily, first place the cheese in the freezer for a few minutes to firm it up slightly. If you can get a sour dough baguette in your neck of the woods I highly recommend it! This is adapted from a recipe of Rick Rodgers.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup diced onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary, plus rosemary sprigs, for garnish
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup red wine, such as Cabernet
1 large egg
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One 8-ounce wheel of Brie
Dried cranberries, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment.
  • Put the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the onion, minced rosemary, thyme and garlic and stir to combine. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper, then stir. Deglaze the pan with the wine and continue to cook until the wine has reduced, about 1 minute. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, make an egg wash by beating the egg with 1 tablespoon of cold water.
  • Lay out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface and pile the mushrooms in the middle. Place the wheel of Brie in the center. Fold up the sides of the puff pastry to enclose the mushrooms and Brie, folding in the edges to seal. Place the wrapped Brie on the prepared sheet pan seam-side down and brush with the egg wash.
  • Bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then top with rosemary sprigs and dried cranberries to resemble an evergreen bush with berries.
