Source: Venturi-Schulze Vineyards
Calories per serving: 355-400 (depending on Bread)
Ingredients
- 1 lb. small chopped fresh mushrooms, well cleaned
- ½ cup whipping cream
- ½ cup aromatic white wine
- 2 ounces (¼ C) unsalted butter
- 2 Tbs. Venturi-Schulze balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tbs. all purpose flour
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1. Melt half the butter in a heavy skillet and when it starts foaming, throw in the mushrooms. Keep simmering, shaking the pan, until the mushrooms are nicely browned. |
2. Add the pepper and wine and, over low heat, simmer until the liquid has reduced to less than half. Now, sprinkle the flour on the mushrooms and stir quickly to prevent sticking. |
3. After a minute or so, add the cream and cook, stirring frequently for another couple of minutes. Turn the heat off and stir in the rest of the butter cut into small chunks. |
4. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and serve immediately. |
