Marsala Mushrooms On Toast Recipes

MUSHROOM MARSALA

Steps:

• In a large pan over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoons butter. Add mushrooms and sauté, stirring often, for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the garlic, sauté for 1 minute until softened.
• Sprinkle in the thyme, salt, and pepper and cook for another 1-2 minutes, just until most of the water evaporates.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes until mushrooms have a nice dark brown glaze and are softened.
• Add the Marsala wine, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Continue to boil, stirring regularly, for 2-3 minutes, just until the liquid has cooked down. Remove from heat. Serve.

MUSHROOMS MARSALA

Steps:

• Clean and take stems off (optional) the mushrooms.
• Place mushrooms in a sauce pan at medium to high heat, sprinkle them with the salt and cover them almost completely with a lid for about 8-9 minutes. Stir them a couple of times just so they don't burn.
• You want them to render just about all of their water, reducing them in size and growing in flavor. Once they've rendered just about all their water and the bottom of the pot is dry.
• Add the oil, the basil and the garlic and saute, browning the mushrooms a bit and always stirring so that the garlic does not burn.
• After about 1 minute of sauteing add the balsamic vinegar and stir for about 30 seconds (the balsamic should boil as it hits the pan) and keep stirring.
• Lastly, turn the heat a little bit higher and add the marsala wine, stirring and deglacing the bottom of the saucepan as well as burning off the alcohol.
• Continue to stir for 1 minute or so until the balsamic and marsala sauce begin to thicken a bit. Take off the heat and let it cool.

CREAMY SAUTEED MUSHROOMS WITH TOAST

Steps:

• Divide butter between 2 heavy large skillets and melt over medium-high heat. Divide shallots between skillets; sauté until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Divide mushrooms between skillets. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté until almost tender, about 8 minutes. Divide Marsala between skillets; stir until evaporated, about 1 minute. Pour 1 cup cream into each skillet; cook until sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Combine mushrooms in 1 skillet. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Cover; chill. Before serving, rewarm over medium heat, thinning with more cream if necessary.)
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Place bread slices on baking sheets. Brush with olive oil; sprinkle with pepper. Bake until beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Stir parsley into mushroom mixture; transfer to chafing dish. Serve with toasts.
