My friend, Kukla posted 2 recipes for Duxelles and I took some from both and this is how I make it....I'm sad to say that she has left the site and taken her wonderful recipes with her....I use this on sandwiches, in soups, on crostini, in gravies...... More

Ingredients
  • 8 oz. white button mushrooms, chopped as finely as possible (I've used a food processor but personally think hand chopping makes a better Duxelle)
  • 2 small shallots, chopped the same as the mushrooms
  • 4 tbls. butter, I use unsalted for this
  • Parsley, chopped to garnish
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions
  1. Clean mushrooms using a damp paper towel
  2. Dry completely
  3. In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt butter
  4. Add shallots and cook until tender
  5. Add mushrooms
  6. Cook over low heat until the mushrooms throw off liquid leaving no liquid in pan and mushrooms look black, stirring occasionally (This can take up to 30 minutes)
  7. Add salt and pepper to taste
  8. Add parsley
  9. Can be refrigerated for up to a week or frozen for up to a month

Oh yeah Corrine...I'm a major fan/groupie of the Duxelles and yours sounds delicious. I agree with the hand chopping dealio - I do think it makes a difference. You're right again - you can use this for so much and it really brings a wonderful earthy mushroom-i-ness to any dish. Thanks for your recipe, GF - and high 5! I love your Surfin' Santa avatar - grooovy baaaby! ;)

Wonderful stuff, thanks for the post. Yummy anyway you make it. Love duxelles.


Oh YEAH - this is a MUST...what great flavor! I can eat this just outta the pan, but it IS good on just about anything.


Great recipe thanks bunches


Ok, so, I'm a mushroom lovah from way back, and never ever heard of duxelles...this sounds good...use it for dip? Spread? both??? SOunds yummy!!!


This sounds so wounderful. Will try it soon. Thanks


I make a similar dish quite often, except keep the mushrooms in medium slices and just serve it as a side dish. This is a delicious dish, and I'll have to try chopping it fine and putting it on bread!


Great post!! I love duxelles and use it in a lot of recipes.... Thanks..... Jim


Ah Wynne m' old sausage, a culinary classic of the real old school variety, when I first started in hotels as a new commis many years ago, I was often grabbed by someone senior and given the bag of shallots and several chips of mushrooms and told to reduce them to a fine "brunois"( 1/8" to 1/16") usualy followed by the sack of garlic to peel, life was tough for the new kids.
Anyway good old "duxelle" try adding a little grated black truffle!!!! "WOW"!!!!!!, even make it into a pate by adding 4oz soft butter to every 8oz of duxelle, still best on hot toast as it is though.


Great post.... dave
