I adore mushrooms. I love everything about them. But my favorite thing about them is that you really don’t need to do much to make them good. Simplicity wins out every time with mushrooms.
For instance, one of my absolute favorite ways to enjoy mushrooms is to slice some crimini mushrooms thinly. Very thinly. Sprinkle them with salt and pepper, freshly grated parmesan cheese and drizzle them with olive oil and voila. You have an absolutely amazing savory mushroom salad.
This love of mushrooms is why I immediately jumped on board when the nice folks at Whole Foods offered to send me a gift card to get my hands on some of the fresh mushrooms they are showcasing this holiday season.Walking in a seeing their display of mushrooms is enough to make the mushroom lover in us all buckle at the knees.
For this recipe, I decided again to keep things simple. I use crimini mushrooms (my all time favorite) and meaty, savory shiitake mushrooms. I simply sauteed them together with butter, olive oil, salt, pepper and parsley then piled it all on toasted bread that I rubbed with a little garlic.
It is rustic mushroom perfection friends.
