Mushroom Croustades are a one-bite, timeless, crowd-pleasing appetizer that can be made ahead - perfect for entertaining! Finely chopped mushrooms and onion are sautéed in butter, thickened with flour and seasoned with cream, wine, green onion, parsley and cayenne pepper. After resting, the mixture is spooned into small toasted bread cups, topped with Parmesan cheese and baked. Can be frozen for up to 3 months, too!

CREAMY MUSHROOMS ON TOASTED COUNTRY BREAD

Categories     Milk/Cream     Wine     Dairy     Mushroom     Appetizer     Sauté     Vegetarian     Lunch     White Wine     Fall     Spring     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ounce dried morel mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
1 pound button mushrooms, trimmed and wiped clean, and thinly sliced
1 cup buttery white wine, such as an Arbois or a light Chardonnay
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
One-half cup crème fraîche or heavy, non ultra-pasteurized cream
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 good-sized (about 6 x 4 inches) slices of freshly baked, crusty bread
Chervil sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Place the dried morels in a medium-sized bowl and pour the water over them. Let sit for 1 hour, then lift the mushrooms from the soaking water, and strain the water if necessary through several thicknesses of cheesecloth. Reserve the soaking liquid.
  • 2. Place the morels and the button mushrooms in a medium-sized, heavy bottomed saute pan, pour the wine over them and place over medium-high heat. Cook the mushrooms in the wine, which should remain at a vigorous boil, stirring from time to time so they cook evenly, until all but about 1 tablespoon of the wine has evaporated, and the mushrooms are still moist, not dry which will take 8 to 10 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, add the butter to the mushrooms and stir until it has melted, then sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir constantly for about two minutes, so the flour is completely mixed into the mushrooms. Add the mushroom cooking liquid and stir until it is thoroughly blended with the ingredients in the pan and has begun to thicken, about 4 minutes. Stir in the crème fraîche and cook until it is thickened and completely incorporated into the ingredients and the mushrooms are tender though not completely limp, 4 to 5 minutes. Taste for seasoning.
  • 3. While the mushrooms are cooking, toast the bread lightly on each side, and place two pieces on each of four plates. Pour equal amounts of mushrooms and sauce over the bread. Garnish the plates with the chervil, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will give your croustades a more complex flavor. Feel free to mix and match different types of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. Otherwise, they will steam and become soggy.
  • Season the mushrooms well. Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or thyme.
  • Use a good quality bread bowl. The bread bowl is an important part of this dish, so make sure to use a good quality one. A stale or dry bread bowl will not hold up well in the oven.
  • Be careful not to overcook the croustades. The bread bowls should be cooked through, but they should not be too crispy. Otherwise, they will become difficult to eat.

Conclusion:

Mushroom croustades are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a special occasion. With a variety of mushrooms, a flavorful filling, and a crispy bread bowl, these croustades are sure to be a hit with your guests.
