Poached Eggs With Mushrooms Two Ways Recipes

POACHED EGGS WITH MUSHROOMS TWO WAYS

Steps:

• Prepare mushrooms:
• Preheat oven to 450°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
• Thinly slice two thirds of mushrooms 1/8 inch thick. Toss with 1/4 cup oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, then spread evenly in 2 large 4-sided sheet pans. Roast, switching position of pans and stirring mushrooms occasionally, until all of liquid has evaporated and mushrooms are golden and crisp, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut remaining mushrooms into 1/2-inch wedges. Finely chop parsley with garlic. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sautémushroom wedges with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper 1 minute. Add red-wine vinegar and sauté 1 minute. Stir in parsley mixture and butter and sauté until butter has melted. Season with salt. Remove from heat and keep warm, covered.
• Poach eggs while mushrooms roast:
• Bring 1 1/4 inches water to a boil in a deep large skillet or saucepan with distilled vinegar. Break each egg into a cup and slide egg into water, spacing eggs apart. Poach at a bare simmer until whites are firm but yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes.
• To serve:
• Stir together mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon toasted cumin in a large bowl, then divide among plates. Lift eggs out of poaching liquid 1 at a time with a slotted spoon and drain briefly in spoon on paper towels before transferring to mushrooms. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with sea salt and remaining toasted cumin to taste.

POACHED EGGS AND WILD MUSHROOMS ON TOAST

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, melt the butter in the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Toss quickly, cover, and cook, undisturbed, until the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned on the bottom, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, stir in the lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap to keep warm.
• Wipe out the skillet. Fill the skillet with water and heat over medium heat until tiny bubbles appear on the bottom. Stir in the vinegar and a generous pinch of salt. One at a time, crack the eggs into a small bowl and very carefully slide them into the water. Poach over medium heat until the whites are just firm and the yolks are runny, 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a plate.
• Meanwhile, toast and butter the bread and then transfer to plates. Stir the basil into the mushrooms and spoon onto the toasts. Carefully slide the poached eggs onto the toasts over the mushrooms. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve with a knife and fork.

POACHED EGGS WITH MUSHROOMS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Fill a large, deep skillet with 3 inches of water. Add the vinegar and bring to a bare simmer.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the tomatoes with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook until just tender, 1 to 2 minutes per side; transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, thyme, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and cook, tossing occasionally, until golden brown and tender, 6 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, poach the eggs in 2 batches: Crack each of 4 eggs into separate custard cups, then, one at a time, slide gently into the water in the deep skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes for slightly runny yolks and remove with a slotted spoon. Repeat with the remaining 4 eggs.
• Top the bread with the tomatoes, mushrooms, eggs, and Parmesan. Season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper and sprinkle with the chives.

Steps:

• Bring 2" water to a boil in a large saucepan; reduce heat to a gentle simmer and add vinegar. Crack an egg into a small bowl; gently slide egg into water. Repeat with remaining eggs, waiting until whites start to set before adding the next. Poach until whites are set and yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs as they are done to paper towels.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add half of both mushrooms; season with kosher salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
