Mushroom Toasts Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and McCormick Paprika and let sizzle for a minute. Stir in the mushrooms and salt, adding in a little more oil if the pan looks dry. Saute until mushrooms are browned, about 10 minutes.
• Pour in heavy cream and scallions (reserve a couple scallions for garnishing). Stir to combine, then remove from the heat and set aside.
• Brush both sides of the pieces of bread with olive oil. Toast bread in a skillet over low heat until golden brown on both sides.
• Pile mushrooms onto the toast. Top each with a poached egg. Lightly dust each egg with a bit of McCormick Paprika and garnish with a couple of scallions.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion; saute 1 minute. Add all mushrooms, garlic and thyme; saute until beginning to brown, about 6 minutes or until liquid evaporates. Remove from heat. Stir in cream and cheeses. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top each toast with about 1 tablespoon mushroom topping. Place toasts on rimmed baking sheets. Working in batches, broil until cheese is melted and begins to brown, watching closely to prevent burning, about 2 minutes. Transfer to serving platter and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Use a small cookie cutter to cut rounds out of the bread. Press the rounds into ungreased mini muffin tins, and bake for 8 or 9 minutes until golden; keep a close watch on them, as they bake fast. Turn out bread cups to cool.
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the mushrooms and onions, and cook until soft, about 8 minutes. Season with cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley. Gradually stir in half-and-half, and sprinkle with a bit of flour until mixture gets thick.
• Fill bread cups with mushroom mixture, top each with a sprinkle of Parmesan, and place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Wipe any dirt from the mushrooms with a damp cloth or paper towel.
• Cut off any tough stems; half smaller mushrooms and quarter larger ones to make approximate even sizes.
• Heat butter and 1 Tbsp of the oil in a 10-12 inch deep saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, for 8-10 minutes, until any liquid has evaporated. If the mushrooms become too dry add a drizzle of oil.
• Transfer mushrooms to a cutting board, let cool a few minutes, and chop coarsely.
• Wipe out the pan and set over medium heat with 1 Tbsp olive oil.
• Add shallots, thyme and a pinch of salt and stir for a minute or two until shallots are tender and slightly golden.
• Return the mushrooms to the pan and stir in the creme fraiche to heat through without bringing to a simmer.
• Remove from the heat and stir in parsley and more salt and black pepper to taste.
• Note: If you are making the mushrooms in advance stir in only 1/4 cup of the creme fraiche now and add the other 1/4 cup when reheating later.
• Just before serving position oven rack 6 inches below the broiler element and heat broiler.
• Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil; Broil for a minute or two to toast.
• Spread warm mushroom mixture over toasts and sprinkle on the Parmigiano-Reggiano.
• Note: Do not at any time overheat the mushroom mixture once the creme fraiche has been added or the cream will break.

Steps:

• Heat a wide skillet over high heat and add butter, swirling pan. When butter begins to sizzle, add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add thyme and garlic, and stir to coat. Season well with salt and pepper and continue to sauté for a minute more, then add sherry, if using. Add crème fraîche and let mixture simmer 2 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast bread slices until golden. Lightly butter them and place on individual warm plates.
• Spoon mushrooms and juices over toasted bread. Top with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• Toast the sourdough bread, cut each slice in half, then set aside. Heat a large frying pan with the olive oil. Fry the prosciutto in the pan for about 2 mins on each side until golden and crisp. Break into large pieces and set aside on some kitchen paper.
• Add the butter to the pan followed by the mushrooms. Cook for 2 mins, then add the garlic and crème fraîche. Cook for 3-5 mins more until the mushrooms are soft and lightly coated in the crème fraîche. Stir through a little parsley. Pile up on the toasts and top with the prosciutto and more parsley.
