    Ah Wynne m' old sausage, a culinary classic of the real old school variety, when I first started in hotels as a new commis many years ago, I was often grabbed by someone senior and given the bag of shallots and several chips of mushrooms and told to reduce them to a fine "brunois"( 1/8" to 1/16") usualy followed by the sack of garlic to peel, life was tough for the new kids.
    Anyway good old "duxelle" try adding a little grated black truffle!!!! "WOW"!!!!!!, even make it into a pate by adding 4oz soft butter to every 8oz of duxelle, still best on hot toast as it is though.

    I make a similar dish quite often, except keep the mushrooms in medium slices and just serve it as a side dish. This is a delicious dish, and I'll have to try chopping it fine and putting it on bread!

    Oh yeah Corrine...I'm a major fan/groupie of the Duxelles and yours sounds delicious. I agree with the hand chopping dealio - I do think it makes a difference. You're right again - you can use this for so much and it really brings a wonderful earthy mushroom-i-ness to any dish. Thanks for your recipe, GF - and high 5! I love your Surfin' Santa avatar - grooovy baaaby! ;)
