Mushrooms And Sage With Grilled Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Combine 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon sage in a small bowl, and spread on both sides of bread. Sprinkle with salt, and grill until golden and crisp, about 30 seconds per side.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 of the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with remaining butter, oil, and mushrooms. Return reserved mushroom-shallot mixture to skillet with remaining sage, and cook for 1 minute. Stir in vinegar, and cook until it evaporates. Serve warm over the grilled bread.

Steps:

• Place the porcini mushrooms in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Let sit until softened, 30 minutes.
• Heat the grill to high.
• Brush the cremini or white button mushroom caps with the canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the mushrooms on the grill, cap side down and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the caps over and continue grilling until the mushrooms are cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Remove from the grill, let cool slightly then coarsely chop.
• Remove the porcinis from the soaking liquid and place in the bowl of a food processor with a few tablespoons of the soaking liquid. Add cremini mushrooms, garlic pulp, walnuts, parsley and thyme in a food processor and process until finely chopped. With the motor running, slowly add 1/2 cup of the olive oil and process until smooth. Add 1/4 cup of the Romano cheese and pulse a few times to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper.
• Brush the bread on the cut side with the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Evenly spread the pesto over the cut side of each half of bread. Top the pesto with the fontina cheese, return to the grill, cheese side up, close the cover of the grill and cook until the cheese has melted, about 2 minutes. Remove from the grill and sprinkle with the remaining Romano.

Steps:

• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, until hot. Add the veal and brown well for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then turn and brown the second side for another 3 to 4 minutes. When the veal is nicely browned on both sides, remove from the pan. In the same pan, saute the onions in the pan juices for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they are browned. Add the mushrooms to the onions and saute together until the mushrooms begin to wilt. Add the white wine and reduce until the wine evaporates. Add the veal stock, sage, and Prosciutto, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, return the veal to the pan and reheat for 1 minute to warm. Continue to cook the mushrooms and sage sauce for an additional 10 minutes. Add the butter to the finished sauce and whisk until it is incorporated. Serve the veal on individual plates with some of the sauce spooned over it.;

Steps:

• Heat butter in a saute pan til very hot, then add mushrooms. You want them to brown some, but not to give off a lot of liquid. Add sage, salt and pepper, til soft, but not too limp. Set aside.
• Butter one side of bread slices, place two in pan, sprinkle with half of the cheese, top with mushrooms, sprinkle with the rest of the cheese, and top with bread, butter side up.
• In my panini maker it's about 3-4 minutes for how I like it.
• To cook in a pan---cook over medium low heat until the bread is toasty, turn (carefully!) and weight the sandwich with another pan (or press down with a spatula) til golden.
