Mushroom And Shoyu Gougere Recipes

Steps:

• Make the choux pastry:.
• Sift the flour with a pinch of salt. Put the measured water and butter into a saucepan and bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and add the flour. Beat well until the mixture is smooth and glossy and leaves the side of the pan clean. Leave it to cool slightly.
• Beat the eggs and cheese, if using, into the flour mixture until it's smooth and glossy. Make the gougere by buttering a large shallow ovenproof dish and lightly pressing the choux pastry around the edge, leaving a hole in the middle. Cover and chill while preparing the filling.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add the mushrooms, and cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes. Lift out with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and gradually blend in the milk. Bring to a boil, stirring until the mixture thickens. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Return the mushrooms to the pan and add the tarragon, salt and pepper to taste. Pour into the middle of the choux ring and bake in a 425*F. oven for 35-40 minutes, until well risen and golden. Garnish with tarragon, and serve hot. Enjoy!

Steps:

• PREHEAT OVEN TO GAS MARK 6/ 400F/ 200°C.
• First make the choux pastry.
• Put water and butter in a pan and stir over medium heat until butter melted. As soon as mixture comes to boil, turn off the heat.
• Quickly and carefully tip all the flour in at once but stir with wooden spoon quickly.
• Beat the mixture until it is a smooth paste that does ot stick to the sides of the pan.
• Next beat in the eggs, a little by little, followed by the cheese. Beat until smooth and glossy.
• Spoon mixture onto a lightly greased baking sheet in a circle about 8-10" across.
• Next make the mushroom filling:.
• Slice the onion and fry in a little oil or butter until soft. Add sliced mushrooms and flour, then the soy sauce. Add a little water if needed.Finally add nuts and parsley.
• Mix together and use to spread on top of the choux circle.
• Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees, and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water, butter, salt and cayenne to a boil. Stir in flour all at once and cook, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon, until dough pulls away from the sides of the pot, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Scrape dough into the bowl of an electric mixer and beat with a paddle until cooled slightly, about 30 seconds. (Or you can do this with a wooden spoon if you beat vigorously.) Add one egg at a time, letting each one incorporate before adding the next. Mix in Gruyère and continue to beat until it is mostly melted into batter.
• Transfer batter to a large, sealable plastic bag, and snip off 3/4 inch from one corner. Pipe 2-teaspoon-sized balls, spaced 1-inch apart, onto baking sheets. Or use a spoon to form the balls. Sprinkle Parmesan on top, and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue to bake until golden and cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly then serve immediately.
