Steps:

• Heat butter over medium heat in a saucepan until it foams. Stir in mushrooms. Season with salt. Simmer until liquid evaporates, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the flour, cooking and stirring for about 5 minutes. Add about 1 cup of beef stock, stirring briskly until incorporated, then pour in the remaining stock and mix thoroughly. Season with black pepper and thyme. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened, about 30 minutes, stirring often.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until dry and tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and cook, stirring until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add the Marsala and broth and continue to cook until it comes to a boil and thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the thyme and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a heavy 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and shallot. Saute, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons flour; cook until incorporated, about 1 minute. Add beef broth; cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in half-and-half, black pepper, and salt. Cook for 30 seconds more.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil over high heat.
• Add the mushrooms.
• Do not move the mushrooms until they have caramelized on the bottom.
• If you toss them too soon, they will release their liquid and begin to steam.
• When the bottoms are caramelized, toss them and continue to cook for about 5 minutes.
• Add the butter and continue to cook and toss for 5 minutes, until beautifully browned.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the garlic.
• Saute another 2 minutes, and add the thyme and lemon juice.
• Cook to evaporate the liquid.
• Add the wine and reduce until the mushrooms are glazed with the sauce.
• Toss in the parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Pour the oil into a sauté pan and set over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion and garlic and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• In a mixing bowl, stir together the eggs, thyme, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, and milk.
• Place the ground meat into another bowl and pour the egg mixture over the meat.
• Add the saltines, parsley, onion, and garlic to the bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Roll up your sleeves, and knead the meat together with the other ingredients until well blended (if you like, cook a small portion of the mixture in a pan, taste, and adjust seasoning).
• Transfer to a cookie sheet and form into a loaf.
• If using the bacon, wrap the slices lengthwise over the top and tuck them under the loaf, to completely cover the meat.
• Bake for 1 hour or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf reads 160 degrees.
• If the bacon on the top is not as crisp as you would like, put the meatloaf under the broiler for a few minutes.
• Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until they just turn bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. (You don't want to cook the green beans through as they will cook in the oven also.) Strain and plunge the green beans immediately in a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. When cool, drain and set out to dry on paper towels.
• Set a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and vegetable oil. Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, add the mushrooms. Cook undisturbed so the mushrooms sear nicely, about 1 minute. Add the thyme and garlic and continue cooking the mushrooms to achieve some nice color. Season with the salt, pepper, cayenne and nutmeg. Cook 2 to 3 more minutes longer, dusting the mushrooms with some of the flour as they release moisture. Stir with a whisk to incorporate the flour (just like making a roux) and gradually add in the chicken stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and add the sour cream and cream. Stir gently and cook over low heat until gravy thickens, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the blanched green beans to the pan and fold together so everything is mixed well. Spread out evenly in the pan. Sprinkle the green beans with the grated Parmesan and transfer to a roasting tray (to catch any spill-over). Bake until the casserole is bubbly and the top is melted and golden, 15 minutes.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a deep skillet and heat to 350 degrees F. Pour the flour into a large mixing bowl and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Toss the shallot rounds in the seasoned flour, then place in a strainer and shake off any excess flour. Fry the shallots in the hot oil in small batches until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and season with salt while still hot.
• Top the green bean casserole with the fried shallots and serve.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and mushrooms; cook, stirring, until well browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Slowly whisk in vegetable stock, a little at a time, until a smooth sauce forms. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes until thickened. Season with soy sauce, salt and pepper. Serve as is, or pass it through a fine mesh strainer.
