Mushrooms

Here it is, the newest challenge is...Mushrooms! I love mushrooms, it can make any bland dish exciting and have depth. I know I use them in so many different things, but my favorite is:

fresh mushrooms w/ cream over polenta or a nice piece of steak.

coat the pan with olive oil, toss in some shallots, garlic, and mushrooms reduce down. Always add in salt and pepper, making sure to layer it throughout the recipe. Then use one part chicken stock to two parts heavy cream and reduce down....yum! I love the flavor over polenta but over a nice steak, it can't be beat.

Now your turn, ideas on mushrooms??
