Directions
Mushroom Toast Tapas, I had been wanting to try this recipe for a long time, and I’m glad I finally did It was wonderful, and would make a great appetizer, first course, or even (as I had it) a very light dinner or lunch used parmesan cheese and dried parsley instead of fresh (I added the dried while cooking the mushrooms so the mushroom liquid would help reconstitute the parsley), and I combined two cooking methods (since there is a choice) Instead of frying or simply broiling, I brushed the pan and the tops with just a touch of olive oil and then put it under the broiler The various cooking methods are explained at the bottom of the recipe If you like mushrooms, I think you’ll love this The time is approximately what it took me to prepare them to the point of cooking Since the different cooking methods have different times, I did not include that I don’t remember where I got the recipe from, but I’m glad I did , I made this with crescent roll dough in place of puff pastry Outstanding recipe! I actually doubled the ham (Virginia style) and made w/o nutmeg, and it was great , i did this recipe with the toast and my guest really liked it used 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg and cayenne and they all thought it was just right used fresh parsley and parmasan cheese excellent starter
