CLASSIC MOCK MEATLOAF WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY



Classic Mock Meatloaf with Mushroom Gravy image

Provided by Food Network

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

9 slices (8 ounces) commercial whole wheat bread (such as Arnold or Pepperidge Farm)
2 cups (8 ounces) walnuts
3 large eggs
3 medium onions, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
1 small celery rib, minced
1 small bunch parsley, stems discarded and leaves chopped
2/3 cup canned crushed tomatoes or 1 (16-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained very well
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
Generous seasoning freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups (8 ounces) thinly sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup unbleached flour
2 1/2 cups vegetables stock, store-bought or homemade
1/4 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons tamari soy sauce
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Toast the bread slices either in the toaster or on a baking sheet placed under the broiler. Let cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan, then line the bottom with wax paper and butter the paper.
  • Tear up the toasted bread slices and make crumbs out of them in a food processor. Place in a large bowl.
  • Process the walnuts until finely ground and mix into the breadcrumbs. Combine the eggs and onions in the processor and process until fine but not liquefied. Stir into the breadcrumbs. Place the green pepper, celery, parsley, tomatoes, and oil in the processor and grind until fine but still with some texture. Stir into the loaf mixture along with the poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix this all very well until evenly moistened. (The mixture may be prepared to this point and refrigerated up to 8 hours in advance.) Scrape it into the prepared loaf pan and smooth over the top. Cover the loaf with foil.
  • Bake 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out dry. Let sit 5 minutes, then run a knife all along the sides of the loaf to help loosen it. Unmold the loaf onto a platter and remove the wax paper. Let the loaf cool 20 minutes or so before slicing it. It's best to serve the loaf warm and the gravy hot.
  • Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until brown, about 7 minutes. Stir in the flour; it will become very pasty. Cook this roux for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. It will stick to the bottom of the pan a little bit; that's okay.
  • Stir in the stock, wine, soy sauce, and pepper, and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce at a lively simmer for 5 minutes, stirring almost constantly and scraping any crusty bits that adhere to the bottom of the pan. Serve in a sauceboat.

MO'S MEATLOAF



Mo's Meatloaf image

MO is for mushrooms and onions. Canned mushrooms and the liquid were used because together they provide a natural source of flavor enhancement similar to MSG. The catsup, is of course optional, but it does add a desirable sweetness. Cooking is a creative sport. This recipe will serve four people, or one solo meal and enough cold meatloaf to make several more lunches.

Tips

  • Choose your ground meat wisely: Use a combination of beef and pork for a moist and flavorful meatloaf. Ground turkey or chicken can also be used, but they may be drier.
  • Don't overmix the meatloaf: Overmixing can make the meatloaf tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined.
  • Season the meatloaf generously: Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor the meatloaf. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, or chili powder.
  • Don't pack the meatloaf too tightly: This can make the meatloaf dry and dense. Leave it a little loose so that it can expand as it cooks.
  • Use a loaf pan with holes in the bottom: This will allow the grease to drain out of the meatloaf as it cooks, resulting in a more flavorful and less greasy meatloaf.
  • Cook the meatloaf at a low temperature: This will help to prevent the meatloaf from drying out. Cook it at 350°F for about 1 hour, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F.
  • Let the meatloaf rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meatloaf, resulting in a more moist and flavorful slice.

Conclusion

Meatloaf is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make a delicious and flavorful meatloaf that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give meatloaf a try!
