The ultimate flavour of mushrooms combines with cream cheese for an easy party spread – for variety use half goat cheese. For convenience make the mushroom mixture or spread a day ahead and if any left spread over freeze for a later party.
1½ tbsp
22 mL
1/2
medium onion, finely chopped
8 oz
fresh Mushrooms, finely chopped
250 g
1
large clove garlic, minced
2 tsp
10 mL
1/4 tsp
1 mL
In large skillet melt butter over medium heat; sauté onion for 1-2 minutes just to soften. Add mushrooms sauté 3-4 minutes or until liquid is released; reduce heat to low and add garlic, soya sauce, pepper and thyme if using. Continue to cook, stirring often until a thick paste is formed, about 5 minutes. Cool to room temperature. In a medium bowl mix with cream cheese until well blended. Spread on thin slices of fresh or toasted baguette or refrigerate covered. Bring to room temperature before serving. Makes 2 cups (500 mL). Tip: Finely chop vegetables in food processor to save time. Use any mixture of mushrooms and it is also a good way to use up stems from mushroom caps other than Shiitake stems. Variation: Substitute 4 oz (125 g) chevre (soft goat cheese) for 4 oz (125 g) cream cheese.
