February Recipe wellington Duxelles Ingredients Individual Wellington Ingredients

1 ½ lbs. Mushrooms (Shitake & Cremini) 4 Center Cut 8 oz Terrine of Liver Mousse Pate

6 Tbsp. Butter (7 oz. each) 1 Package , 2 Large Shallots, Finely Chopped 1 Tbsp. Canola Oil Defrosted for 2 hours in Fridge 4 Cloves Garlic, Finely Chopped 2 Oz. Brandy Small Handful of Flour

1 Tbsp. Fresh Thyme, Finely Chopped 4 Tsp. Dijon Mustard 1 Egg & 2 Tsp. Water ¼ Cup Dry Sherry (For Egg Wash) Directions 1. Clean mushrooms with a damp cloth, stem, and chop about ¼ inch. 2. For the duxelles, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter to a foam. Add mushrooms and brown until fragrant and volume reduces to about half. Add shallots, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper and stir to soften shallots, about 3 minutes. Add sherry and let absorb fully then remove from heat and cool in a shallow bowl or on a tray. 3. Bring meat to room temperature and pat dry. Gently press down each to spread surface area a bit, leaving steaks 2 to 2 ½ inches thick, and season with salt and pepper. Heat a cast iron skillet or griddle over high, add 1 tablespoon of oil, and brush or wipe the oil around the pan. Add the meat to pan and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook meat to develop a crust but not to cook through (about 1 minute on each). Turn the heat off, add brandy and let it absorb, turning the meat in it. Remove from pan and transfer to plate. Let steaks cool completely (10 - 15 minutes) and add about 1 teaspoon of mustard to each steak and spread to coat the top side of each steak. 4. Preheat oven to 425°F. Roll out dough a bit on floured surface and cut into 4 portions. Leave a border on each piece of dough and spread a centered layer of liver mousse pate on each piece (about 2 ounces). Top with about ¼ portion of cooled duxelles and center a steak, mustard side down, in the mushrooms. Wrap and trim the pastry, using egg wash to seal, flip, and brush with more egg wash. 5. Arrange wellingtons on parchment-lined sheet and bake until golden, about 20 - 30 minutes. Enjoy!
