Mushroom Toast With Melted Brie Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Balsamic Reduction

   In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and let simmer until it thickens and is reduced by half, about 10-15 minutes. Set aside to cool.

2. 2

   Prepare the Mushrooms

   Clean the mushrooms and slice them. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.

3. 3

   Toast the Baguette

   Slice the baguette into 1-inch thick pieces. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly brush the slices with olive oil and grill until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

4. 4

   Assemble the Toast

   Place the grilled baguette slices on a serving platter. Top each slice with sautéed mushrooms and a slice of brie cheese. Place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the brie is melted and bubbly.

5. 5

   Garnish and Serve

   Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the melted brie and sprinkle with chopped scallion grass. If desired, fry or poach an egg and place it on top for an additional charge. Serve immediately.
