Seriously Delicious Mushroom Pâté

In just 20 minutes, you can make mushroom pâté, or as I like to call it, the most easy, impressive, and delicious dip and spread. Mushrooms are blended with herbs, shallots, and ricotta to pack in layers upon layers of flavors. And to really elevate it, you can add a drizzle of truffle oil.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Saute: Melt butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium/high heat. Add garlic, shallots, and thyme/rosemary and cook until shallots are soft, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until the moisture released from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 7 more minutes.
  2. Puree: Add cooked mushrooms and ricotta to a food processor and blitz until smooth. Taste and season with salt as needed, finishing with a few drops of truffle oil if desired.
  3. Serve: Serve warm or cold with crackers or toast.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover mushroom pâté in a sealed container and keep it in either the refrigerator or freezer. Enjoy within 1 week from the fridge, and 3 months from the freezer.
