Creamed-Mushroom Bruschetta With Caramelized Onions image

Start by making the caramelized onions. These take a great deal of time. The onions here, barely slicked with neutral oil, surrounded by sweet wine, can take up to 30 minutes to achieve the excellence you are looking for. You stir and stir and stir.

Time 1h15m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 small yellow onions, peeled and thinly sliced
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
1/2 cup sweet Marsala wine
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
1 1/2 pounds best-quality common mushrooms, ideally cremini or babybella, cleaned and sliced
1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground blackpepper, to taste
2 small shallots, peeled and minced
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 pieces rye bread, sliced thick
Caramelized onions (see above)
Creamed mushrooms (see above)
2 tablespoons minced chives

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add vegetable oil. Once the oil shimmers, add the onions and salt. Do not stir immediately. Wait 1 minute, then begin to stir frequently over high heat for 5 minutes, or until the onions have released liquid and started to become translucent.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and add Marsala. Cook, stirring often, for what will seem like an eternity, until the onions are fully melted and dark brown, approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Heat a heavy-bottomed pan with high sides over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add vegetable oil. Once the oil shimmers, add butter. When butter foams, add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and are golden brown, approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium low and, using a wooden spoon, create a well in the middle of the mushrooms. Add thyme, salt, black pepper and shallots; sweat until shallots have cooked through and become translucent, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Return heat to high and add sherry vinegar to deglaze pan, then add cream and bring to a low boil.
  • Check for seasoning. Mushrooms can be reserved until needed, then reheated over a medium flame. Add a splash of extra cream to loosen, if needed.
  • Grill or toast bread to a light char.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons caramelized onions over each piece of toast, followed by approximately 1/4 cup of creamed mushrooms.
  • Garnish with minced chives.

I might as well jump on the Bruschetta Bandwagon! Experiment using local onions in your area! Also, try other similar hard cheeses in place of the Parmesan: asiago, fontina, pecorino romano, etc. From the cookinglight.com website with some changes.

Time 5m

Yield 1 baguette loaf

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (NOT dried)
1 French baguette
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
fresh ground black pepper
fresh basil leaf, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven on BROIL.
  • Heat the butter and olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sugar; cook 15-20 minutes or until very soft and golden brown; stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
  • Cool mixture slightly then stir in the fresh basil.
  • Cut baguette into 1/2" slices. Place bread slices on a baking sheet.
  • Broil the bread for 2 minutes or until toasted. Watch oven carefully!
  • Divide and spread caramelized onion mixture over each bread slice. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and season with fresh cracked black pepper.
  • Return to oven and broil for 1 minute or until cheese melts.
  • Garnish each slice with 1 or 2 fresh basil leaves if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chanterelle mushrooms. Fresh chanterelles have a more intense flavor and aroma than dried or frozen mushrooms.
  • Clean the chanterelles thoroughly. Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris from the mushrooms.
  • Slice the chanterelles thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Caramelize the onions slowly. This will bring out their sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A good balsamic vinegar will add a rich, complex flavor to the bruschetta.
  • Garnish the bruschetta with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or chives, will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This chanterelle and caramelized onion bruschetta is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. The combination of earthy mushrooms, sweet onions, and tangy balsamic vinegar is sure to please everyone. Serve it at your next party or gathering, or enjoy it as a light meal on a busy weeknight.
