Wild Mushroom Salad With Corn Mustard Dressing Recipes

WARM MUSHROOM SALAD

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.

CORN AND MUSHROOM SALAD WITH SESAME VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until slightly golden, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer to a bowl to cool.

• Put the corn on a baking sheet; broil, turning occasionally, until slightly charred, 5 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk the vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the grapeseed oil to make a smooth dressing. Stir in half of the cilantro, the shallot and 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds. Add the tomatoes, radishes, jalapeno, mushrooms and the remaining cilantro; toss to coat. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Cut the corn kernels off the cobs; scatter them over the salad and gently toss to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining sesame seeds.

WILD MUSHROOM-BACON SOURDOUGH DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the bread cubes in an even layer on a large baking sheet and bake, stirring a few times, until light golden brown, about 12 minutes. Allow to cool, then transfer to a very large bowl.
• Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Combine the mushrooms on a baking sheet, toss with 3 tablespoons canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven, stirring several times, until soft and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat has rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan and place it back on the stove over high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Add 3 cups chicken stock and the herbs, season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer.
• Add the mushrooms to the bowl with the bread, then add the stock mixture, the bacon and the eggs; season with salt and pepper and gently stir until combined. The mixture should be very wet; add more stock if needed. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Add the stuffing and cover with foil. Bake 20 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking until golden brown, 30 to 40 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 10 minutes before serving.
