SAUTEED WILD MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Brush the caps of each mushroom with a clean sponge. Remove and discard the stems. Slice the small mushrooms thickly and cut the large ones in a large dice.
• Heat the olive oil in a large (11 - inch) Dutch oven or saucepan. Add the shallots and cook over low heat for 5 minutes, or until the shallots are translucent. Add the butter, mushrooms, salt, and pepper and cook over medium heat for 8 minutes, until they are tender and begin to release their juices, stirring often.

SAUTEED VEAL KIDNEYS WITH ROASTED SHALLOTS, MADEIRA AND CREAM

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place shallots in a roasting pan or casserole dish. Rub with vegetable oil, cover and roast until soft, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, split kidneys lengthwise and remove nerve and core from each side. Slice clean kidneys into silver-dollar-size pieces. Set aside.
• Squeeze roasted shallots out of their skins. Reserve 4 whole shallots for garnish and chop remainder. Place a large skillet over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add chopped shallots and saute until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Madeira and saute until reduced to a glaze. Stir in cream and simmer until reduced by half. Remove from heat.
• Place a clean skillet over medium heat, and add remaining butter and the olive oil. When butter melts, add kidneys and saute until browned on all sides. Remove kidneys from pan, pour out any liquid in pan, and return kidneys to pan. Add cream sauce and simmer until kidneys are cooked to medium (pink inside) and glazed with sauce. Add parsley and chives. To serve, place equal portions on four plates, and garnish each with a whole roasted shallot. If desired, serve with sauteed spinach.

VEAL OR LAMB KIDNEYS SAUTEED WITH LEMON AND MUSTARD

Steps:

• Mash together the mustard and 3 tablespoons of the butter and set aside.
• Remove the button of fat at the kidney hilum without piercing the flesh. Kitchen scissors work best for me. If the butcher left any opaque membrane on the kidney, remove it.
• Over medium heat melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a medium skillet until the foam begins to subside.
• Roll the kidneys in the melted butter, then cook them uncovered for about 10 minutes, turning every minute or two. Regulate the heat so that the butter is always very hot but not discoloring. The kidneys should brown lightly and stiffen but not become hard.
• Remove them from the skillet and keep warm for the few minutes it takes to make the sauce.
• Stir the shallots into the butter in the skillet and cook for about one minute. Add the wine and the lemon juice. Boil, scraping up the coagulated cooking juices and reduce the liquids to about 4 tablespoons.
• Off heat swirl in the mustard butter by spoonfuls into the skillet.
• Rapidly cut the kidneys into slices 1/8 inch thick (they should be a light pink). Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Toss the kidney slices in the skillet with their juices and the parsley over low heat for a minute or two to warm them without allowing the sauce to simmer.
• Serve immediately, preferably on warmed plates.
