Mushroom Soufflé With Parmesan Recipes

MUSHROOM PASTA WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Set the timer for a few minutes less than the package instructions and then taste: the pasta should be just done, still with some firmness. The pasta should also taste salty from the salted water. Drain the pasta and save out 1/2 cup pasta water (you'll likely only need a few tablespoons).
• Clean the mushrooms, then slice them. Thinly slice the onion. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Then mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and cook another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is cooked out and the mushrooms are tender (taste to assess doneness). Add 1 tablespoon butter and lemon juice and increase heat to high. Cook 2 minutes until the edges of mushrooms are golden brown. Taste and add a few more pinches of salt until the flavor pops. Stir in the Italian breadcrumbs or panko and remove the mushrooms to a bowl.
• Mince the garlic. In the same skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter over medium low heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant and garlic just starts to turn golden. Remove from the heat before garlic browns.
• To the skillet with the garlic butter sauce, add the mushrooms, cooked pasta, grated Parmesan cheese, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and just enough pasta water until saucy (we used 2 to 3 tablespoons pasta water). Taste again and add a few more pinches of salt if desired. If using, stir in the soft crumbled goat cheese at the end until it makes a creamy sauce. Enjoy warm.

MUSHROOM PARMESAN

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil over both sides of the mushrooms. Sprinkle the mushrooms with salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil on the grill to prevent the mushrooms from sticking. Grill until the mushrooms are heated through and tender, about 5 minutes per side.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread 1/2 cup of the marinara sauce on the bottom of a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Place the grilled mushrooms on top of the marinara sauce and top with the remaining marinara sauce. Sprinkle with the cheeses and top with the butter pieces. Bake until the cheese melts and the top is golden, about 15 minutes. Serve.

STUFFED MUSHROOM DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up into bite-size pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned and almost cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until softened, about 1 minute. Add in the mushrooms, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft and the moisture has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the cream cheese and stir until melted, about 1 minute. Add the Parmesan and half-and-half and cook, stirring occasionally, until bubbly 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the mushroom mixture into a 1-quart ramekin. Mix the butter with the panko and parsley and sprinkle on top of the mushroom mixture. Bake until the bread crumbs are golden brown and the dip is bubbly around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes then serve with toasted, sliced baguette.

MARY BERRY'S DOUBLE-BAKED MUSHROOM SOUFFLéS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7 and butter the ramekins generously. Lay a piece of kitchen paper in the base of a roasting tin - the paper stops the ramekins slipping in the tin. 2. Melt 25g (1oz) of the butter in a large, non-stick frying pan, add the mushrooms and fry them over a high heat for a few minutes. Cover the pan with a lid, lower the heat and cook for another 4 minutes, then remove the lid and fry over a high heat to evaporate the liquid. Remove the mushrooms with a slotted spoon and set them aside. 3. To make the soufflé base, melt the remaining butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour to make a roux and cook for a minute. Gradually add the hot milk and whisk over a high heat until you have a thickened, smooth sauce. 4. Remove the pan from the heat and beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, until the sauce is smooth. Add the mushrooms and the cheese and season, then set aside to cool a little. 5. Whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Stir about a tablespoon of egg whites into the egg and mushroom mixture and carefully fold it in, keeping everything light and airy. 6. Divide the soufflé mixture evenly between the ramekins and sit them on the paper in the roasting tin. Pour enough boiling water into the tin to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins. Bake the soufflés for about 15 minutes until risen and lightly golden. 7. To make the sauce, pour the cream into a jug and add the spinach and mustard. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine. 8. To serve, preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7. Carefully run a knife around the edge of each ramekin and remove the soufflés. Sit the soufflés, browned side up, in an ovenproof dish, then spoon the sauce around them. Reheat for about 12 minutes until piping hot. Serve with dressed leaves or some brown bread. Prepare ahead: Can be made up to 8 hours ahead and reheated with the sauce as in step 8.

MUSHROOM SOUFFLé WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 190c. Grind the bread to breadcrumbs in a food processor. Butter and breadcrumb the inside of the soufflé dish, knocking out any excess. My dish was 20cm wide and 8cm high - with this size of dish, the soufflé will rise about 3cm above the edge. If you want a higher, more spectacular rise, use a dish with a smaller volume.
• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, cream and rye flour (sprinkle the flour in gradually to avoid lumps). Add the mushrooms, garlic, paprika and black pepper and heat over medium heat until very well thickened. Add the fresh basil and salt. Taste a little of the mixture and add more salt if you think it needs it - it should be fairly salty to allow for the addition of egg whites - and stir to combine. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside to cool for about 10 minutes.
• Separate the eggs, adding the yolks to the mushroom mixture and the whites to a very clean bowl for whisking (the bowl you choose will depend on your whisking method and whether you are using a machine or not.) Beat the yolks into the mushroom mixture until thoroughly incorporated. Whisk the whites to stiff peaks (I used a stand mixer). Gently fold the whites into the mushroom mixture - there should still be lots of air in the batter, but there should be no large blobs of egg white.
• Pour into the prepared dish - if necessary, the uncooked soufflé will hold for about an hour after it has been added to the dish. Bake at 190c for 35 minutes, until well risen and firm, but still moist and creamy in the centre. Serve immediately.

PARMESAN CHEESE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Butter 6 (7 1/2 by 3 1/2-inch ramekins. Sprinkle with some grated Parmesan, and coat all sides and the base of the dish. Pour out the excess cheese into the next ramekin to coat. Continue coating the ramekins with the cheese and set aside.
• Heat the milk in a small saucepan over low heat.
• In another medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook out raw flour taste, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the hot milk and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Remove the pan from heat, add 3/4 cup of grated cheese and season, to taste, with salt and pepper (watch salt levels because of the cheese). Pour the mixture into a large bowl and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• In a stand mixer, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks.
• Whisk the yolks into the cooled bechamel. Fold 1/3 of whipped egg whites into the bechamel to lighten the base. Gently fold in the remaining whipped egg whites in order to keep the incorporated air. Carefully fill the prepared ramekins and arrange them on a baking sheet. Bake until risen and golden on top, about 20 minutes. The center will have just a slight jiggle when ready. Remove the ramekins from the oven and serve immediately.

MAKE-AHEAD MUSHROOM SOUFFLéS

Steps:

• Fry the mushrooms in the butter for about 3 mins, then remove from the heat and reserve a good spoonful. Add the flour to the rest, then blend in the milk and return to the heat, stirring all the time to make a thick sauce. Stir in the cheese, season to taste, then leave to cool.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Butter 8 x 150ml soufflé dishes and line the bases with baking paper. Stir the egg yolks into the soufflé mixture, then whisk the egg whites until stiff before folding in carefully. Spoon into the soufflé dishes and bake in a roasting tin, half-filled with cold water, for 15 mins until risen and golden. Leave to cool (they will sink, but they are meant to). You can make the soufflés up to this stage up to 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
• When ready to serve, turn the soufflés out of their dishes, peel off the lining paper, then put them on a baking sheet lined with small squares of baking paper. Top each soufflé with 1 tsp crème fraîche and a little cheese, then scatter with the reserved mushrooms. Bake at 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 for 10-15 mins until slightly risen and warmed through. Sprinkle with chives and serve.

SHEET-PAN MUSHROOM PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange the cherry tomatoes on a sheet pan, along with half the garlic, and drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and toss to coat the tomatoes.
• To the sheet pan, add the mushroom caps in between the tomatoes, gill side up, and drizzle each generously with olive oil. (Don't skimp here, as the olive oil will add lots of rich flavor.) Scatter the mushrooms with the remaining garlic, and season each mushroom with salt and black pepper. Fill each mushroom with marinara sauce, and top with cheese. Place in the oven and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly and golden.
• Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and add the bread crumbs, basil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden. Remove from heat immediately and transfer to a bowl or jar.
• To serve, transfer mushrooms to serving plates, along with a few of the roasted cherry tomatoes. Top each mushroom with the basil bread crumbs and scatter with a few basil leaves.
