Autumn wouldn't be the same without mushrooms. We prefer to enjoy them in a sandwich, such as a panini or a focaccia. How about you? We're here to inspire you with this delicious vegetarian combination of oyster mushrooms, gorgonzola and truffle oil - finished with fresh spinach and parsley. The sandwich is at its best when served oven-fresh, so wait until the last minute to bake the bread. Is that a promise?
Mise-en-place
< Max 4 hours in advance >
Thaw the focaccia as indicated on the packet and bake only at the last minute.
< Max 4 hours in advance >
Prepare the oyster mushrooms: tear the oyster mushrooms into strips, cut the shallot into half-moons and crush the garlic. Heat a little olive oil or butter in a frying pan and brown the oyster mushrooms, shallot and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Top with half the parsley.
< Max 4 hours in advance >
Briefly toast the pine nuts in a dry frying pan.
Preparation
Bake the focaccia at the last minute. Open the fully baked, pre-sliced focaccia and drizzle both halves with the truffle oil.
Coat successively with the spinach, oyster mushroom mixture and gorgonzola.
Garnish with the pine nuts, the rest of the parsley and a freshly ground salt and pepper. Put the top slice on.
Serve immediately!
Tips from the chef
Tip 1
"Don't have time or prefer not to make this delicious oyster mushroom mixture yourself? Then use a ready-made mushroom spread, but make your mark on this sandwich by adding your own unique garnishes."
Tip 2
"Gorgonzola is not the only cheese that goes well with mushrooms. Herb cheese also makes for a tasty combination. But make sure you spread on the herb cheese first and only after add the mushrooms and other ingredients."
Tip 3
"Feel free to leave out the truffle oil and replace it with delicious green herbs such as tarragon, oregano and rosemary. These herbs also taste great with mushrooms!"
