Warm Wild Mushroom Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Clean the mushrooms by brushing the tops with a clean sponge. Don't wash them! Remove and discard the stems and slice the caps 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. In a large saute pan, heat the butter and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until bubbly. Add the mushrooms, salt, and pepper to the pan, and saute for 3 minutes over medium heat, tossing frequently. Reduce the heat to low and saute for another 2 to 3 minutes, until cooked through.
• Meanwhile, arrange the arugula on 4 lunch plates (or on a platter) and cover each portion with 2 slices of prosciutto. When the mushrooms are cooked, add the sherry vinegar and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the hot pan. Spoon the mushrooms and sauce on top of the prosciutto. With a vegetable peeler, make large shavings of Parmesan cheese and place on top of the hot mushrooms. Sprinkle with the sun-dried tomatoes, parsley leaves, salt, and pepper, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Whisk 2 tablespoons oil, vinegar and thyme in small bowl to blend.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and shallots; sauté until beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Cover skillet; cook until mushrooms are tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Uncover; simmer until any juices evaporate. Mix 2 tablespoons dressing and chives into mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper.
• Toss greens with remaining dressing in large bowl. Top with mushrooms.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook shallots until tender and golden, about 5 minutes.
• Add garlic and cook just until fragrant (do not let garlic brown), about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, salt and pepper and saute until golden, about 8 minutes.
• Drizzle with vinegar, thyme and tarragon. Cook 1 minute. Sprinkle with brandy if using. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Place large bowl of cool water near stovetop. Pour additional water into large skillet to reach depth of 2 inches. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice and generous sprinkling of coarse salt to skillet. Bring water to simmer over medium heat. Crack eggs, 1 at a time, into water (whites may spread). Simmer until whites are cooked through and yolks are still soft, occasionally spooning water over, about 3 minutes.
• Using slotted spoon, transfer eggs to bowl of cool water. Reserve skillet with poaching water. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Bring reserved skillet of water to simmer. Rewarm eggs 1 minute.
