    Ingredients

    Ingredients for boursin stuffed mushrooms.

    Button Mushrooms: Button mushrooms and cremini mushrooms are both small mushrooms that are perfect for a stuffed mushroom appetizer. Remove the stems and chop those up to mix with the other flavorings.

    Boursin Cheese: Boursin is a French cheese that is incredibly creamy and savory. You can often find it in the cheese section of grocery stores as it’s become more widely available. There are a few flavors of boursin cheese, but the more popular one and the one used in this recipe, is flavored with garlic and herbs.

    Olive Oil: A good drizzle of olive oil is used to saute the shallots and chopped mushrooms.

    Shallot: I love the flavor of shallot as it’s a bit sweeter and works so well with the boursin cheese and mushrooms. If shallot isn’t available, finely chop 1/4 cup worth of red onion.

    Thyme: Fresh thyme offers an earthy layer of flavor to the cheese stuffing. Remove the leaves from the stem and give it a rough chop before adding it to the sautéed shallots.

    Panko Breadcrumbs: Panko is a Japanese style of breadcrumb that has a really nice crunch. A small amount is added to the mixture to help bind the ingredients together and offer a bit more texture.

    What main goes with stuffed mushrooms?

    Stuffed mushrooms go well with a variety of main dishes, such as individual beef wellington, pan seared pork chops or salmon wellington.

    How do you clean mushrooms?

    When buying mushrooms, they may come with dirt on them. To clean mushrooms, use a damp cloth and wipe any dirt away. Do not submerge mushrooms under water, as they can soak up too much moisture and not cook down as easily.
