Mushroom Crostini

ep121 - mushroom crostini

‘Crostini’ too fancy-sounding? Then let’s just call this ‘mushrooms on bread’. Better?

Ingredients

  • 3 cups sliced mushrooms (your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons rosemary
  • 1 large clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons vermouth
  • 1 baguette, sliced into diagonal 1/4 inch slices
  • fresh ground pepper
  • olive oil

Steps

  1. Brush one side of bread slices lightly with olive oil
  2. Saute mushrooms in oil in nonstick pan over medium heat
  3. When soft, add pepper, rosemary and garlic – stir well for a minute
  4. Heat broiler, and toast bread slices lightly; oiled side up
  5. Add vermouth, taking care as it may flame up
  6. When most of the liquid has evaporated, remove from heat
  7. Spoon mushroom mixture on the tops of the toasted bread
  8. Sprinkle lightly with Parmesan and serve

    Shrimp & Pork Gyoza

    More dumplings with this Asian classic that may have seemed nearly impossible to make at home prior to watching this show. In true Sam fashion, rather than make just shrimp or just pork, he had to combine them together into one epic Asian dumpling. Find the recipe here.

  • honey walnut shrimp - the sam livecast

    Not-Fried Honey Walnut Shrimp

    Normally these crispy shrimp are cooked in hot oil, but in the spirit of Sam’s ‘never-fry-anything-because-its-too-damn-smelly’ mantra, we decided we’d rather throw them into a pan for just a little color. Simple and of course, delicious. Find the recipe here.
