Best 8 Portabella Mushroom Caviar Recipes

GRILLED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS WITH BALSAMIC

Steps:

• Preheat the grill. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, toss the garlic cloves with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and some salt. Wrap the garlic cloves in tinfoil and place on the tray in the center of the oven. Cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 20 to 25 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the balsamic with 3/4 cup of the olive oil and the mustard.
• In a medium bowl, toss the mushrooms in the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt. Place them, stem-side up, on the hottest part of the grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, you may see liquid starting to emerge from the stem area. Flip to the other side and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer them to a tray and place in the center of the oven. Cook until they are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, an additional 12 to 15 minutes. Season them lightly with salt.
• Remove the garlic from the oven. Squeeze the garlic pulp out from their skins and whisk it vigorously into the dressing. Arrange the mushrooms on a serving platter and top with the dressing. Serve immediately.

PORTABELLA MUSHROOM CAVIAR

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm up 1 teaspoons of olive oil and saute the green onion for 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil. Add mushrooms, garlic, and thyme; saute until tender. Don't overcrowd the pan, or mushrooms will be poached. Work in 2 batches.
• Move the green onions and mushrooms to a food processor. Use the pulse button, and process until coarsely chopped(not mushy!). Don't overprocess.
• Return the mushrooms to the pan. Add lemon juice, vinegar, and pepper. Saute over medium high heat until the liquid has evaporated, 1-2 minutes.
• Serve in a small crock as a spread for toast, pita crisps, veggies, lettuce, etc. Enjoy!

ROASTED PORTOBELLOS WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove the stems of the mushrooms, and carefully scrape away the gills using a spoon. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place, rounded side down, on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Place in the oven and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are beginning to soften and throw off liquid. Remove from the heat and fill with the pesto. Return to the oven and continue to roast until thoroughly softened, about 10 more minutes.

MUSHROOM CAVIAR

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet and saute onion for about 1 minute. Add mushrooms, garlic, and nutmeg; continue to saute for 4-5 minutes, until very soft.
• Add vermouth, cook another minute or so, then remove from heat and cool. Stir in mayonnaise, salt and pepper to taste.
• Chill, covered, until ready to serve.

PASTA WITH PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Trim hard parts from mushrooms and discard. Rinse mushrooms quickly to remove grit; cut caps into slices and stems into small chunks. Combine in a medium skillet with 1 clove garlic (crushed and peeled), thyme, olive oil and some salt and pepper. Cook over sufficiently low heat so that mixture bubbles but mushrooms do not brown. Continue to cook, stirring infrequently, until they are quite shrunken in size and appear firm, 30 to 45 minutes. (At this point, you can pause for several hours before resuming cooking.) If you are using porcinis, soak them in hot water to cover for a few minutes so that they soften.
• Set a large pot of water to boil for pasta and salt it. Mince remaining garlic. Turn heat under oil to medium, and add garlic to the portobellos along with the drained porcinis. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic begins to color. Add tomatoes and raise heat to medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they break up and become saucy, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta until it is tender but not mushy. Taste sauce and adjust its seasoning. When pasta is done, drain it, toss with sauce, top with Parmesan, and serve.

PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS STUFFED WITH EGGPLANT AND GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange mushrooms, rounded side down, on large baking sheet. Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add eggplant, sun-dried tomatoes and garlic. Sauté until eggplant is soft, about 8 minutes. Stir in red wine and simmer until liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; stir in Gorgonzola cheese and 1 tablespoon basil. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mixture evenly into mushroom caps. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover mushrooms with aluminum foil. Bake mushrooms for 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until cheese melts, filling bubbles and mushrooms are tender when pierced with sharp knife, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle mushrooms with remaining 1 tablespoon basil and serve warm.

STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the mushroom caps on it, upside down. Whisk together 3 teaspoons olive oil with the balsamic vinegar, ¼ teaspoon sea salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Brush the mushrooms with the mixture and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until tender.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat remaining olive oil and cook the shallots for 5 minutes, until beginning to brown. Add the garlic and rosemary and cook for another minute or two. Stir in the spinach and broth. Remove from heat as soon as the spinach begins to wilt.
• In a large bowl, mix together the shallot-spinach mixture, beans, parsley, breadcrumbs, nutritional yeast and the remaining sea salt and pepper. Divide the mixture among the mushrooms. Sprinkle the tops with some extra breadcrumbs and nutritional yeast for more crunch, if desired. Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until heated throughout. Serve hot.

STUFFED PORTABELLA MUSHROOMS WITH SWISS CHARD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the chard. Blanch two minutes until tender, and transfer to the ice water. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop fine, and set aside.
• Set aside 1/2 garlic clove, and mince the rest. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet, and add the pine nuts or almonds. Cook, stirring, until the nuts begin to color, and add the minced garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add the chard and salt and pepper to taste. Stir together for a minute or two, and remove from the heat. Taste and adjust seasonings. Transfer to a bowl, add 1/4 cup of the Parmesan and stir together.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a baking sheet or baking dish that will accommodate all the mushrooms. Gently twist the stems off the mushrooms, if they are still there, and set aside for another purpose. Heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat in the skillet, and add the half clove of garlic that you set aside. Cook the garlic in the olive oil until it turns golden, then remove it from the oil and discard. Add the mushrooms to the oil, season with salt and pepper, and cook, shaking them in the pan, just until they begin to soften, no longer than three minutes. Using tongs, remove from the oil and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet or in a baking dish, rounded side down.
• Fill the mushroom caps with the chard mixture, packing it in tight. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top. If any oil remains in the pan, drizzle it over the mushrooms. Place in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the mushrooms are moist and tender.
