Best 7 Bulgur With Crimini Mushrooms Recipes

BULGUR-STUFFED SUMMER VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the bulgur in a heatproof bowl. In a sauce pan, bring the chicken broth and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil. When the liquid has come to a boil, pour over the bulgur. Let sit until the bulgur absorbs the liquid, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prep the vegetables: Cut off the top third of the bell peppers. Remove the seeds and ribs leaving a 'cup' for the stuffing. Dice the flesh from the top 1/3 and reserve. Cut a 1/3 of the zucchini lengthwise to reveal the seeds. Scoop out the seeds to create a boat. Dice the remaining 1/3 pieces. Slice the tomatoes in half and scoop out the seeds to create a cup.
• In a large saute pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sweat until translucent. Add the reserved chopped peppers, squash, mushrooms, and garlic to the pan. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the cooked vegetables, if necessary, and add to the cooked bulgur.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on the inside of the vegetable 'cups.' Stuff the vegetables with the bulgur mixture, place in a shallow baking dish, cover with foil, and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, then bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is brown and melted.

ROASTED CREMINI MUSHROOMS WITH GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Toss the mushrooms with a pinch of salt and nestle stemmed-side up in a small baking dish so the mushrooms are touching.
• Put the butter, parsley and garlic in a small bowl and mash with a fork until well mixed. Evenly divide the butter between each cap. Drizzle the oil over the mushrooms.
• Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the butter has melted, about 20 minutes. Top with a few grinds of pepper and serve warm.

BULGUR BOWL WITH SPINACH, MUSHROOMS AND DUKKAH

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the bulgur and salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, until the water is absorbed. Remove from the heat, uncover and place a clean dish towel over the pan, then replace the lid. Allow to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes or longer. Alternatively, reconstitute the bulgur just by placing it in a bowl, mixing with salt to taste, and pouring on 1 1/2 cups boiling water or stock. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes, until the bulgur is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Transfer to a strainer and press out excess water. Set aside.
• To make the dukkah, chop the nuts very fine. Mix with the toasted sesame seeds in a bowl. In a dry skillet lightly toast the coriander seeds just until fragrant and immediately transfer to a spice mill and allow to cool completely. In the same skillet toast the cumin seeds just until fragrant and transfer to the spice mill. Allow to cool. When the spices have cooled, grind and add to the nuts and sesame seeds. Add the nigella seeds, sumac and salt and mix together.
• In a large, heavy skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat and add the red onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is very tender and lightly colored, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Add the mushrooms to the skillet and turn up the heat to medium high. Cook, stirring or tossing in the pan, until the mushrooms begin to sweat, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and continue to cook, stirring, until just tender and moist, another couple of minutes. Add the remaining olive oil and the garlic, stir together for about 30 seconds, until fragrant, and stir in the wine. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until the liquid in the pan has evaporated, and add the spinach and salt to taste. Cook, tossing the spinach in the pan with tongs, until the spinach has wilted, which shouldn't take much longer than a couple of minutes. Add the dill and stir everything together.
• Combine the bulgur and chickpeas and heat through, either on top of the stove or in the microwave. Spoon into wide bowls and top with the mushrooms and spinach. Arrange the red onions on top and if desired add a drizzle of olive oil. Sprinkle each serving with about 2 to 3 teaspoons dukkah and serve.

BULGUR WITH WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Soak dried mushrooms in hot water to cover.
• Heat butter in a skillet large enough to hold all ingredients. Saute onion and celery until soft.
• Meanwhile, clean and slice fresh mushrooms. When onion and celery are cooked, push them to side of pan and saute fresh mushrooms until they begin to color, 4 or 5 minutes.
• Squeeze liquid from dried mushrooms and stir them into the pan. Reserve mushroom-soaking liquid.
• Stir in bulgur and cook over medium heat until bulgur begins to color.
• Stir in beef stock and 1/4 cup of mushroom liquid. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, cover and cook about 10 minutes, until bulgur grains soften. Season with salt and pepper. Add more mushroom liquid if needed. Freeze if desired.
• To serve, defrost and bring to room temperature. Reheat in 350-degree oven, covered, about 20 minutes, until steaming. Stir in toasted pecans and decorate with parsley.

BULGUR WITH CRIMINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. When hot, put in the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until the onion turns translucent (a couple minutes).
• Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. If the mushrooms give off liquid, cook and stir until the liquid evaporates.
• Add the stock, bulgur, rosemary, thyme, and a good amount of black pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Cover, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the liquid is all absorbed and the bulgur is cooked, about 15 minutes.
• If your stock is not salted, you may want to give it a sprinkling of salt before serving. You may also want to garnish it with additional fresh herbs or a grating of Parmesan. Enjoy!
