The final week of our Holiday CSA brings an extra special treat. We just started harvesting our Nameko mushrooms this winter. These beauties are in the same genus as chestnut mushrooms, and have a similar nutty flavor profile, but with an extra crunch, and covered in a layer of natural gelatin called mucin. Most often used in soups where the gelatin acts as a thickener. These are also amazing in a stir fry, or our marinated mushroom recipe. Sign ups for our Winter CSA start today, so join us for weekly or biweekly mushrooms. Message or email us for details, [email protected].

This is our most advanced recipe but it is worth it! Perfect for your New Years Eve party, a pate that looks beautiful and everyone will love. Make it a day in advance to let the flavors really mingle. We just dropped fresh mushrooms & so make any of our holiday recipes for your New Years Celebrations.

Mushroom Pâté Appetizer
• 1 lb mushrooms, torn or cut into chunks (a variety is great!)
• 1 head of garlic, roasted and removed from husk
• ½ large onion, diced
• 1 tsp salt
• ¼ c walnuts
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• ½ tsp dried sage
• ⅛ c white wine
• ½ tsp blk pepper
• 4-6 TBS unsalted butter, divided

Dry fry (or use a little oil) the mushrooms in batches until all are softened and browned. Once all mushrooms are removed, add 1 TBS of butter and the diced onion and salt. Once softened add herbs, walnuts and roasted garlic. Stir and cook until fragrant. Add mushrooms back to pan, add wine and cook until reduced. Add black pepper, 1 TBS of butter, taste and add more seasoning to your preference. Remove from heat.

Working in small batches, blend (use a food processor or blender- a blender will give you a smoother pâté). Be patient, scrape down often and blend until your desired consistency. If your mushroom mixture is too dry to blend, you can add melted butter, 1 TBS at a time.

Once you have blended it all, pack into a ramekin or serving dish, smooth the top. Pour 3 TBS of melted butter over the top to create a fat cap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours. You can garnish with a sprig of fresh thyme if you have one. Serve with crackers or slices of toasted baguette, pickled red onions and/or a grainy mustard. Can be made up to 5 days in advance.
