Herbed Gorgonzola Mushroom Frittata
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 pound mixed mushrooms, (such as shiitake, cremini, or oyster), thinly sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 4 scallions, white and green thinly sliced
- 1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves
- 12 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup mushroom broth (see cook's note)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2/3 cup crumbled gorgonzola (about 2 ounces)
- Position a rack 6 inches below a broiler's heating element, and preheat.
- Heat a large heatproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil.
- Add the mushrooms, tossing briefly, and then cook until browned, about 12 to 15 minutes.
- Toss in the scallions once the mushrooms begin to brown, about 2/3 of the way of cooking.
- Stir in 1 cup parsley and tarragon.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs with the mushroom broth and season with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle in gorgonzola and stir gently to combine.
- Reduce heat to medium and pour the eggs into the skillet, stirring gently so that the mushrooms and herbs are evenly distributed.
- Continue cooking and gently stirring until the eggs begin to set, about 4 minutes.
- Place skillet under the broiler and cook until the frittata is set, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Slide frittata out of skillet if desired, sprinkle with remaining tablespoon parsley, and cut into wedges.
- Cook's note: There are prepared mushroom broths on the market.
- If you can't find one, make your own with a bit of dried mushrooms.
- Simply heat a couple cups water with a healthy pinch of dried mushrooms, like porcini, or shiitake, or a mixture.
- Steep until flavorful.
- Strain and reserve the liquid.
- Use the hydrated mushrooms as desired.
