Duxelles (Mushroom Paste) Recipe
- 1 pound mushrooms
- 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup shallots
- 2 tablespoon dry sherry or dry port or Madeira
- kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- Place 1 pound of assorted stemmed and quartered mushrooms in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade attachment and pulse until very finely chopped.
- Melt 3 tablespoons unsalted butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- When the foaming subsides, add 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots and cook until softened and translucent, about 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low, add chopped mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid has evaporated and the mushrooms have formed a thick paste, about 40 to 50 minutes.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, add 2 tablespoons dry sherry, dry port, or Madeira, and cook until evaporated, about 5 minutes.
