Categories     Mushroom     Side

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound mushrooms
1 shallot, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup sherry or dry white wine
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325° F. Remove the stems from the shiitakes (and reserve for stock-making or the compost pile or discard). Trim off the very bottom end of the cremini stems and discard. Quarter the mushrooms.
  • In a 9- by 13-inch baking dish, combine the mushrooms, thyme sprigs, shallots, garlic, sherry, and olive oil. Season with a big pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Toss to distribute everything evenly, then spread in a an even layer. Cover pan with foil, transfer pan to the oven, and cook for 30 minutes.
  • Bring the juices to a gentle simmer. Let the juices reduce slowly while the mushrooms finish cooking-they don't need to reduce by half or any particular amount, but the flavors will concentrate as it simmers/reduces. When the mushroom are nearly done, add the tablespoon of butter to the juices. When it has incorporated into the juices, taste them. Adjust seasoning as needed with more salt or butter to taste.
