Hen Of The Wood Mushroom Toast

Serves 4

Ingredients

1/4lb of your favorite mushrooms (we love wild Hen of the Woods. Cultivated Hens also are called Maitake)

2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves minced garlic

1 shallot, diced

1 tablespoon of finely chopped flat leaf parsley

1 teaspoon sherry vinegar

4 slices of your favorite bread (1/2″ slices)

1 tablespoon olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

4 poached eggs (optional for on top, but Mike Says No)

Instructions

Turn on your broiler

Brush the bread slices with good olive oil and salt/pepper

In a large saute pan, over medium/high heat, add the butter and oil and mushrooms. Toss a few times to coat with fat, season with a few pinches of salt and then let them sit and sear for several moments. Toss and leave alone again. When they are a little crispy on the outside and cooked through add garlic, shallots and parsley. Toss a few times to cook the garlic and pull from the heat. Add the vinegar.

While the mushrooms rest, broil your bread until toasted and dunk your eggs into simmering water and pull from the heat.

Mound the mushrooms on the hot toast. Drizzle with olive oil, salt & pepper.
