Mushroom And Fontina Crostini Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of each baguette slice lightly with olive oil. Bake for 4 minutes per side. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the Gruyere evenly over the bread. Turn the oven to broil. Place the crostini back in the oven under the broiler until the cheese is melted.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, white wine and tamari. Cook until the mushrooms are soft and the liquid has evaporated. Finish with a small pinch of sea salt.
• Spoon the mushrooms out of the pan directly onto the crostini. Garnish with the chopped chives and flat-leaf parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange baguette slices on rimmed baking sheet. Toast in oven until golden, about 9 minutes. Cool. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
• Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots; sauté 1 minute. Add all mushrooms; sauté until beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in garlic; sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in cream, rosemary, and lemon peel. Season with salt and pepper. Cool. Mix in both cheeses. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Preheat broiler. Top each toast with about 1 tablespoon mushroom topping. Place on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Working in batches, broil until cheese is melted and begins to brown, watching closely to prevent burning, about 3 minutes. Transfer to serving platter. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the cremini, shiitake and oyster mushrooms and saute for 5 minutes. Add the shallots and sweat until translucent. Add the wine and thyme. Cook until the wine has reduced and the pan is dry, about 5 minutes. Remove the thyme.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Grill the slices of baguette until golden brown. Rub the bread slices with the garlic. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Place the bread on a baking sheet. Place 1 to 2 slices of cheese on each piece of bread.
• Broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Top each toast with 1 heaping tablespoon of the mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with chives.

Steps:

• Spread baguette slices on a baking sheet. In a skillet, melt the butter at medium heat. Brush the slices with about 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Cook under the preheated grill for about 4 minutes or until the slices are golden and crispy (flip at mid-cooking). Set aside.
• Meanwhile, in the skillet, add shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until softened. Add mushrooms, thyme, salt, pepper and cook while stirring for about 7 minutes or until mushrooms are golden and liquid has evaporated. Add parsley and stir.
• When ready to serve, spread about 1 tablespoon of the mushroom mixture on each crostini and sprinkle with oil. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut baguette crosswise into 12 quarter-inch thick slices; place on a baking sheet. Brush with oil; season with salt and pepper. Toast in the middle of oven until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallot; cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and any juices have evaporated, 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place a round of goat cheese on top of each crostini; top with a tablespoon of mushroom mixture. Sprinkle with chives. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Place a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Brush both sides of the bread slices with olive oil and place a few at time in the hot skillet. Toast for 2 minutes, turning often, until browned and firm. Rub the cut side of the garlic on the bread toasts to infuse a subtle flavor.
• Place a skillet over medium heat and coat with olive oil. Add the shallot, garlic and rosemary. Sauté for 1 minute to soften. Add the mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are soft and brown, about 10 minutes. Stack the mushrooms on the garlic crostini.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet on high heat, add mushrooms, and cook until tender. Add thyme.
• Put a few mushrooms on each piece of toast, and serve.
