OVERNIGHT ASPARAGUS & MUSHROOM STRATA



OVERNIGHT ASPARAGUS & MUSHROOM STRATA image

Categories     Egg     Bake     Casserole/Gratin     Kosher

Number Of Ingredients 13

Overnight Asparagus & Mushroom Strata
Ingredients
7 or 8 thin stalks of asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 small shallot, finely chopped
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups coarsely grated Gruyere cheese
1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
2 ½ cups 1% milk
8 large eggs
½ pound Ciabatta bread, cut into 1 ½-inch cubes

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium saute pan melt the butter over medium heat and add the asparagus, shallots, and mushrooms. Allow the vegetables to saute for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms and shallots are softened and the asparagus can be easily speared with a fork. 2. Meanwhile, Mix the cheeses in a bowl with the salt and pepper and set aside. Then whisk together the eggs and milk and set aside. 3. Generously butter a 13 x 9 baking dish and layer everything as follows: one third of the bread cubes, followed by one third of the cooked vegetable mixture, followed by one-third of the cheese mixture. Repeat this layering two more times. Then, pour the egg and milk mixture over the entire dish, pushing down on the bread so it begins to soak up the custard. Cover the dish and chill it in the refrigerator for 6 hours, or up to 24. 4. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bring the strata to room temperature, then bake it for 40 to 45 minutes, or until it is puffed up the the bread tops are golden brown. Allow to cool slightly and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh asparagus and mushrooms. Fresh vegetables will give your strata the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a cheese that you love the taste of.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. This recipe is very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your own taste.
  • Make sure the strata is cooked all the way through before serving. Insert a toothpick into the center of the strata; if it comes out clean, the strata is done.

Conclusion:

Overnight asparagus mushroom strata is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast casserole that is perfect for a weekend brunch or holiday gathering. It can be made ahead of time, so it's a great option for busy families. The strata is packed with fresh asparagus, mushrooms, and cheese, and it's baked in a creamy egg custard. It's a hearty and satisfying dish that will keep you full all morning long.
