Best Mushroom Veloute With White Truffle Sabayon Recipes

ROBIOLA WHITE TRUFFLE PIZZA

Steps:

• In small bowl, stir together yeast, oil, sugar, and about 3 tablespoons water until smooth. Stir in remaining water. In large bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with dough hook whisk together 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, and salt. With mixer on low speed stir in yeast mixture and blend until mixture forms dough. With mixer on medium speed knead dough, adding enough of remaining 1 cup flour as necessary to prevent dough from sticking, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Put dough in an oiled deep bowl and turn to coat with oil. Let dough rise, loosely covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk, and punch down. Divide dough into 6 balls. On a lightly floured surface roll out each ball of dough into a 9 1/2-inch round and stack, lightly floured, between sheets of parchment paper. Dough may be made 8 hours ahead and chilled, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap. Preheat oven to 550 degrees F. Spread 1 cup robiola on each round of dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border around the edge. Place another piece of thin, rolled out dough on top. Dock pizza all over so cheese can ooze through. Sprinkle 1-tablespoon semolina on each of 2 baking sheets and transfer 1 pizza to each. Bake in batches in lower third of oven 10 minutes, or until crust is crisp and golden. Transfer pizzas to plates and drizzle each with 1-tablespoon truffle oil and shaved truffles. Top and bake remaining pizzas in the same manner.

WHITE TRUFFLES

Steps:

• Place the cream in a heat-proof bowl, and set the bowl over a pan of simmering water. Cook until heated through. Using a wire whisk, slowly stir the white chocolate into the warm cream until completely melted. Whisk in the liqueur and vanilla. Cover and chill for 1 hour or until pliable but firm enough to scoop. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. With 2 teaspoons or a 1 1/4-inch ice cream scoop, make dollops of the chocolate mixture and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for about 15 minutes, until firm enough to roll into rough spheres. Place the chopped hazelnuts on a sheet pan and place them in the oven for 8 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Melt the bittersweet chocolate in a heat-proof bowl, set over a pan of simmering water. Drizzle the melted bittersweet chocolate over 10 of the truffles. Roll the remaining truffles in the chopped nuts. Chill until ready to serve.

WHITE MUSHROOMS AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan or cast iron pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and the mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and add the thyme and the garlic and saute. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and a lot of the liquid has evaporated from the bottom of the pan, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Add the Marsala and cook until the flavor of the alcohol has mellowed considerably, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove and discard the sprigs of thyme and the garlic. Shut the heat off and stir in the spinach leaves so they wilt slightly. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

VELOUTE

Steps:

• In a saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add flour and stir (using a wooden spoon). In a separate saucepan have hot stock over low to medium heat. While constantly whisking, gradually add hot stock to the roux (the butter and flour mixture). Simmer mixture while continuing to whisk. Sauce will thicken in a few minutes. ***To basic finished veloute sauce, add 1 cup sauteed mushrooms, Tabasco, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan. Toss with pasta. Garnish with parsley.

TRUFFLE MUSHROOM PASTA

Steps:

• Boil the pasta according to package instructions. Reserve a few tablespoons of the starchy water before you drain the pasta once it's cooked.
• In a 10-inch skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and garlic and stir to coat them in the butter. Add the salt and cook the mushrooms for 10 minutes or until they've released their moisture and they are deep brown in color.
• Transfer the cooked mushrooms and garlic to a bowl or plate. In the same pan, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the cream and stir to combine it with the butter. Once the cream is heated through add the shredded cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted. Add one or two tablespoons of the pasta water to thin the sauce.
• Add the mushrooms and pasta to the pan and stir to coat them evenly in the sauce. Garnish with the chopped parsley and grated cheese and serve.

MUSHROOM VELOUTE (MUSHROOM SOUP)

Steps:

• Prepare a veloute base by cooking the onion in a 4 quart pot over medium heat. Stir almost continuously to prevent browning.
• When the onion turns translucent (after about 10 minutes), add the flour.
• Stir over medium heat for 5 minutes more to cook out the starchy taste.
• Add the Madiera (or sherry) and broth.
• Whisk the soup to get rid of any lumps, and bring it to a simmer.
• Simmer for 5 minutes.
• Put the mushrooms in a blender and add 1 cup of the hot soup base.
• Blend the mushrooms on high speed for about 2 minutes. (Add a little more of the soup base, if necessary, to get them moving.).
• Put a strainer over the pot and pour the contents of the blender through it, into the the pot with the rest of the base.
• Add the cream. (If you want the soup perfectly smooth, strain it through a medium or fine mesh strainer.).
• Bring the soup back to a simmer and season it with salt and pepper.
• Ladle it into hot bowls and put a dollop of whipped cream on each serving.
