Steps:
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and saute the mushrooms for 15 to 20 minutes until all the moisture is gone. Add the shallots and garlic and saute 2 minutes longer. Remove the skillet from the heat and add in the Boursin, Asiago, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly and allow it to cool in an uncovered bowl. While the mushroom mixture is cooling prepare the phyllo. Layer 3 sheets of phyllo pastry, lightly brushing each layer with melted butter using a pastry brush. Cut the layered phyllo into 4-inch squares using a pastry wheel or sharp knife. Keep pastry covered with a lightly damp towel until ready to fill. Using a spoon, place a small amount of the mushroom duxelle into the center of each Phyllo square and draw the corners of the squares up to the center and twist. Lightly brush with melted butter and place in a lined baking sheet. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes at 350 degrees.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Finely chop the mushrooms in a food processor.
- Scrape the mushrooms onto a clean cotton kitchen towel. (Choose an old towel as the mushrooms will stain it. Do not use terry cloth.)
- Over a sink, twist the towel around the mushrooms to wring out as much liquid as possible.
- Heat a large (10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and swirl to melt and avoid burning.
- Add the mushrooms, shallot, thyme, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
- Cook until the mushrooms release their liquid and continue to cook until the liquid evaporates and the mushrooms appear dry and begin to brown, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and, when melted, add the vermouth.
- Cook until the vermouth has evaporated, stirring frequently. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.

MUSHROOM DUXELLE
Steps:
- In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and saute for 6 minutes. Add the shallots and garlic and continue to saute for 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the port wine and cook until almost all the liquid has cooked off, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the duxelle from the pan and cool completely. Season the entire quail with Essence. Stuff the quail with the duxelle and set aside.
DUXELLES: A WAY OF PRESERVING YOUR MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- Trim off, if necessary, the woody part of the mushroom stems, and with a damp cloth wipe off any dirt (don't immerse the mushrooms in water). Chop both stems and caps into small dice. Spread them out on a towel, and sprinkle the salt over them. After about 10 minutes, pat dry to remove excess juice. Meanwhile, heat the butter and oil in a fairly large skillet, toss in the shallot, and sauté it gently for about 2 minutes. When the mushrooms have released their liquid, add them to the shallot, and cook together few minutes, until the pan is dry. Cool, and store in the refrigerator for a few days or freeze.

Steps:
- Trim ends of portobello mushrooms. Break stems and caps into small pieces. Finely chop mushrooms in a food processor. Squeeze dry in a clean kitchen towel.
- Melt unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add shallot; cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, and cook, stirring often, until beginning to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Stir in heavy cream, dry sherry or Madeira, parsley, and fresh thyme; season with coarse salt and freshly ground pepper. Let cool.
Tips:
- Use fresh mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will have the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh mushrooms, you can use dried mushrooms, but be sure to soak them in hot water for at least 30 minutes before using.
- Chop the mushrooms finely. Finely chopped mushrooms will cook more evenly and will have a better texture in the duxelles.
- Sauté the mushrooms over medium heat. Sautéing the mushrooms over medium heat will help to release their moisture and will prevent them from burning.
- Add some aromatics to the duxelles. Aromatics such as onions, garlic, and shallots will help to add flavor to the duxelles.
- Season the duxelles to taste. Season the duxelles with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
- Use the duxelles as a filling for savory dishes. Duxelles can be used as a filling for savory dishes such as beef Wellington, chicken breasts, and portobello mushrooms.
Conclusion:
Mushroom duxelles is a versatile and flavorful ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
