Giant Mushroom Popover Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together milk, eggs, and melted butter in a medium bowl; set aside. Whisk together flour and salt in a separate medium bowl. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture; whisk until blended. Cover; let batter stand 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put 2 teaspoons oil into each cup of two standard 6-cup popover pans or a large (each cup having a 1-cup capacity) 12-cup muffin tin. Place pans on a rimmed baking sheet. Transfer to oven; heat oil in pans 20 minutes.
• Pour batter into popover cups, filling each two-thirds full. Bake (do not open oven while popovers cook) 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; continue to bake popovers until well browned and crusty, about 20 minutes more. Invert popovers to unmold. Transfer to a bowl lined with a clean kitchen towel; cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallots; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add sherry; cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Raise heat to medium-high; add cream, and bring to a boil, stirring. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 1 minute. Stir in tarragon, and season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, place popovers on plates, and spoon mushroom sauce on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Beat eggs in a medium sized bowl until light and fluffy.
• Add milk and 1 TBSP butter, mixing well.
• Combine dry ingredients; add to egg mixture, and beat until smooth.
• Butter 6 custard cups generously.
• Set the cups in a jellyroll pan, and place in a 400 F degree oven 5 minutes before filling.
• Remove from oven.
• Spoon batter evenly into the cups.
• Bake at 400 F for 25 minutes; reduce the temperature to 350 F and bake an additional 20-25 minutes.
• Turn off heat, and allow to stand 5 - 10 minutes.
• (They should be extra large, empty crusty shells.).
• Serve hot with butter, jam or jelly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375'F.
• Melt the butter in a 10" ovenproof skillet. Add the onion and saute over medium heat for 5 minutes.
• Stir in the mushrooms, garlic and salt, and saute for another 5 minutes. Add the sherry and cook, uncovered for 10 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, place the eggs, milk and flour in a blender, and whip them into a smooth batter. Pour this over the mushroom mixture in the skillet, and transfer the pan to the center of the oven.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until set. Cut into wedges and serve hot or warm.
• Serve popover with a green salad or some fresh fruit for a refreshingly uncomplicated meal.
