Honey Gorgonzola Mushrooms Recipes

BRUSCHETTA WITH GORGONZOLA CHEESE AND HONEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Arrange the sliced baguette on a baking sheet. Brush with olive oil. Bake until the bread is pale golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.
• Arrange the cheese on the toasts and bake until the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.
• Drizzle the toasts with honey. Place on a serving platter and serve immediately.

MUSHROOM-GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook 1 pound sliced assorted mushrooms in 2 tablespoons olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat, stirring, until browned and tender, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and cook, stirring, until softened, 30 seconds. Add 1 cup heavy cream; bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Toss with 12 ounces cooked fettucine, adding up to 1/4 cup pasta-cooking water to loosen the sauce. Off the heat, stir in 2 ounces crumbled gorgonzola until creamy; season with salt and pepper.

GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOMS AND GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the gnocchi: Lightly flour a baking sheet. Put potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with cold water by 2 inches. Bring to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Reduce to a simmer; cook until potatoes are very tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 25 minutes.
• Drain potatoes. When they are just cool enough to handle, peel, and then pass through a ricer or food mill into a medium bowl. Sprinkle with flour, and add eggs. Season with black pepper and 1 tablespoon salt. Stir mixture with a fork to combine.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; gently knead until it is soft and smooth, about 3 minutes. Divide dough into 4 to 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about 3/4 inch thick. Cut ropes crosswise into 1-inch gnocchi.
• Roll a cut side of each dumpling against the tines of a fork with your thumb so each piece has ridges on 1 side and an indentation on the other. Place on the floured baking sheet until ready to cook (up to 12 hours in the refrigerator, uncovered).
• Lightly brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer gnocchi with a slotted spoon to the oiled baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining gnocchi. (The cooked gnocchi can be tossed in oil and stored, in an airtight container, in the refrigerator up to 24 hours.)
• Make the sauce: Bring cream and stock to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Reduce heat, and let mixture simmer until slightly thickened and reduced by 1/3, about 10 minutes. Add Gorgonzola; stir until melted. Stir in nutmeg and cayenne. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium until hot but not smoking. Add mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and their released liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add gnocchi; cook, stirring gently, until just heated through. Pour cheese sauce over gnocchi and toss gently to coat evenly. Serve immediately.

GORGONZOLA STUFFED MUSHROOMS

• Remove from heat and add rest of ingredients.
• Fill the mushroom caps and brush all over with olive oil.

HONEY & GORGONZOLA MUSHROOMS

GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOMS AND GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Lightly brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add the salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer the gnocchi with a slotted spoon to the oiled baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining gnocchi.
• Bring the cream and stock to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, and let the mixture simmer until slightly thickened and reduced by one-third, about 10 minutes. Add the cheese; stir until melted. Stir in the nutmeg and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and any released liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add the gnocchi; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. Pour the Gorgonzola sauce over the gnocchi; gently toss.

CHANTERELLE MUSHROOM SAUCE WITH GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk sherry wine and broth into the flour mixture, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to a simmer.
• Stir in Gorgonzola cheese until melted. Add mushrooms, seasoning blend, and pepper; simmer over medium-low heat until sauce has reduced and desired thickness is achieved, about 30 minutes. I think it's just about perfect when the bubbles start to look like a heavy rain hitting the ground.
