 Filled with our Mushroom & Sage EVOO, herbs and sweet cranberries, our stuffed mushrooms taste like Thanksgiving in every bite. Makes 12. 12 whole mushrooms about 2 inches in diameter 1/4 cup Mushroom & Sage Olive Oil, divided 1/4 cup shallots or onion, finely diced 1/4 cup dried cranberries, diced 2 cloves garlic minced 3 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs 1/4 cup parmesan cheese fresh grated 1/2 teaspoon Tuscan Herb Spices Salt + Pepper, to taste Cinnamon Pear, Fig or Aged Dark Balsamic Gently wipe off any excess dirt from the mushrooms with a clean kitchen or paper towel. Remove the stems from the mushrooms. Cut off and discard the tough ends. Finely chop the stems. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons Mushroom & Sage Olive Oil. Add the shallots, cranberries, garlic, mushrooms, and parsley to the skillet with a pinch of salt. Cook until ingredients are softened, stirring occasionally, about 5-7 minutes. In a medium bowl, mix the mushroom mixture with the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Place the mushrooms in a baking dish. Stuff them with the mixture, pressing down to get as much in as possible. Drizzle the remaining two tablespoons of Mushroom & Sage Olive Oil on top of the stuffed mushrooms. Cover the baking sheet with foil. (At this point, you can refrigerate the mushrooms for up to a day to be baked later.) Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 10 more minutes, until golden and bubbling. Drizzle with Cinnamon Pear, Aged or Fig Dark Balsamic!  Ingredients
Directions Preheat oven to 425F. To slice the potatoes: Lay a pencil or chopstick next to each potato as a guide as you slice, so you do not cut all the way through. Slice 1/8” thick slices, cutting down to the chop stick or pencil. Place hasselback potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of Truffle EVOO and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Arrange potatoes in an even layer, cut side up, on the baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven. Drizzle with remaining tablespoon of Truffle EVOO and garlic. Return to oven and roast an additional 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove potatoes from oven and immediately dust with freshly grated parmesan. Serve hot.  This is a delicious dressing that works year-round. Add to hot or cold pasta. Served hot, add halved cherry tomatoes and top with shaved parmesan cheese. Serve cold with halved ripe cherry tomatoes and fresh mozzarella. A little lemon zest will add brightness. You can also blend it with pine nuts or walnuts and cheese, like a traditional pesto. Speaking of which, a little Sicilian Lemon to your pesto is delicious as well!
