Mushroom And Wild Rice Strudel Recipes

MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE STRUDEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• In a large bowl, beat the egg with the feta. Stir in the mushroom ragoût, chopped herbs and 1/2 cup of the cooked rice. Add a little freshly ground pepper.
• Combine the melted butter and olive oil in a pyrex measuring cup or microwave-safe bowl, heat very slightly at 50 percent power and stir together. Place 8 sheets of phyllo dough on your work surface. Cover with a dish towel and place another, damp dish towel on top of the first towel. Each time you take a piece of phyllo from the pile, replace the towels so that the phyllo doesn't dry out. Place a sheet of parchment on your work surface horizontally, with the long edge close to you. Take a sheet of phyllo from the pile and lay it on the parchment. Brush the first sheet of phyllo lightly with the butter and olive oil mixture and top with the next sheet. Continue to layer all eight sheets, brushing each one before topping with the next one.
• Brush the top sheet of phyllo dough with the butter and olive oil mixture. Spread the remaining wild rice over the surface, leaving a 3-inch margin at the bottom and a 2 1/2 inch margin at the top and on the sides. Spread the mushroom mixture over the rice. Fold the bottom edge of the phyllo up over the filling, then fold the ends over and roll up like a burrito. Using the parchment paper to help you lift the strudel, place both the parchment paper and the strudel on a baking sheet with the seam side down. Brush with butter and olive oil and make 3 or 4 slits on the diagonal along the length of the strudel.
• Place the strudel in the oven and bake 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush again with the butter and olive oil, rotate the pan and return to the oven. Continue to bake for another 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes and preferably for 30. Serve warm. Reheat in a medium (325 degrees) oven if the strudel loses its crispiness before you are ready to serve. It will crisp up in about 10 minutes.

WILD MUSHROOM STRUDEL

Steps:

• For the mushrooms: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Stir together cremini and oyster mushrooms, sherry, oil, thyme, dill and some salt and pepper in a roasting pan, then roast for 10 minutes. Allow to cool. Remove and discard herb stems.
• For the filling: Sweat carrots, fennel, onions and celery in oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat until soft. Turn off heat and add goat cheese to melt. Transfer to a half-sheet pan to cool.
• For the strudel: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 3 sheet pans with parchment and spray with nonstick spray. (Each strudel must be rolled and baked on its own sheet pan.)
• Mix mushrooms together with the veggies in a large bowl.
• Lay each sheet of pastry on a lined sheet pan.
• Brush the border of each pastry with egg wash, then sprinkle panko in a line down the center of the pastry. Spoon a third of the filling in a line on top of the panko, then sprinkle more panko on top to absorb excess liquid.
• Roll up tightly (like a burrito) and lay seam-side down. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with dill, salt and pepper. Repeat with remaining pastry and filling.
• Bake for 10 minutes, then switch and rotate the sheet pans and bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Cool, then cut into 1/2-inch slices.

WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the rice and toast while stirring until it begins to smell nutty, about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook on low until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter along with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the button mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and thyme and cook, stirring often until they begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• When the rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and gently fold in the mushrooms. Add to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the parsley before serving.

WILD MUSHROOM STRUDEL

Steps:

• Clean the mushrooms and slice any large ones into pieces no larger than of an inch. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil and add the mushrooms, onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms have released all their liquid and are lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add the wine and thyme and cook until the wine has evaporated. Remove from the heat and transfer the mushrooms to a bowl. When the mushrooms are cool, stir in the cheese, parsley and 3 tablespoons of the bread crumbs. Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. On a work surface, brush one of the sheets of phyllo with melted butter and dust with the remaining crumbs. Top with the second piece of phyllo and brush again with butter. Spoon the mushroom mixture down the short end of the phyllo, leaving it about 2 inches from the edge. Fold the dough over the edge and continue rolling, encasing the filling in the phyllo.
• Brush the strudel with more butter and lightly butter a baking sheet. Carefully transfer the strudel to the sheet and bake until golden brown and crispy, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Remove the strudel from the oven and allow to cool 5 minutes. Trim the ends if they are overly browned and frayed. Slice the strudel and serve with field greens dressed with a tart vinaigrette.

MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE STRUDDLE

Steps:

• PREPARATION Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, beat the egg with the feta. Stir in the mushroom ragoût, chopped herbs and 1/2 cup of the cooked rice. Add a little freshly ground pepper. Combine the melted butter and olive oil in a pyrex measuring cup or microwave-safe bowl, heat very slightly at 50 percent power and stir together. Place 8 sheets of phyllo dough on your work surface. Cover with a dish towel and place another, damp dish towel on top of the first towel. Each time you take a piece of phyllo from the pile, replace the towels so that the phyllo doesn't dry out. Place a sheet of parchment on your work surface horizontally, with the long edge close to you. Take a sheet of phyllo from the pile and lay it on the parchment. Brush the first sheet of phyllo lightly with the butter and olive oil mixture and top with the next sheet. Continue to layer all eight sheets, brushing each one before topping with the next one. Brush the top sheet of phyllo dough with the butter and olive oil mixture. Spread the remaining wild rice over the surface, leaving a 3-inch margin at the bottom and a 2 1/2 inch margin at the top and on the sides. Spread the mushroom mixture over the rice. Fold the bottom edge of the phyllo up over the filling, then fold the ends over and roll up like a burrito. Using the parchment paper to help you lift the strudel, place both the parchment paper and the strudel on a baking sheet with the seam side down. Brush with butter and olive oil and make 3 or 4 slits on the diagonal along the length of the strudel. Place the strudel in the oven and bake 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush again with the butter and olive oil, rotate the pan and return to the oven. Continue to bake for another 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes and preferably for 30. Serve warm. Reheat in a medium (325 degrees) oven if the strudel loses its crispiness before you are ready to serve. It will crisp up in about 10 minutes. Tip Advance preparation: You can make the strudel a day ahead and recrisp in a medium oven; in fact, once it has sat for more than a half hour you will have to recrisp it. You can also freeze it, before or after baking. Add 10 minutes to the baking time if you have not yet baked it, or thaw in a medium oven until crisp. The mushroom ragoût will keep for 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator. Leftover strudel will crisp up nicely and it keeps for about 5 days in the refrigerator.

WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS
