CARAMELIZE: Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter along with the 1 tablespoon of oil and sauté the onions for 5 minutes. Add the dried thyme and sugar and continue to cook for 25 minutes on medium low heat. Make sure to stir the mixture every 5 minutes or so. If the onions are caramelizing too fast, turn down the heat a little more. Add the balsamic vinegar to deglaze the pan, allow the onions to soak it all in. Turn off heat. Add the onions to the mushroom mixture. Season with the garlic powder and salt and pepper to taste, stir to combine. Allow to cool to room temperature. Mixture can be kept in an air-tight container and refrigerated for up to 48 hours at this point. Allow to come to room temperature before proceeding. Add the gruyere cheese and mix well.

FILL AND BAKE: Using a knife or a pizza cutter, cut the puff pastry into 2-inch squares and place them on a lined baking sheet. Make sure the puff pastry is cold before proceeding. If not, allow it to rest in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before proceeding. Using a pastry brush, brush the beaten egg on the squares. Prick the puff pastry using a fork in the center. Place a tablespoon of caramelized onion mixture in the center. Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway in between until crisp and golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.

Sautéed Cremini Mushrooms

Cremini (baby bella) mushrooms

butter

olive oil*

Salt and pepper

lemon juice

Start by thoroughly rinsing the mushrooms under water. Pat dry and then cut into thin slices (about ¼ inch thick). If you buy pre washed and sliced mushrooms, you can skip this step.

In a large skillet, combine the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once the butter is fully melted, add in the sliced mushrooms with a good pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes. Around this time, you’ll end up with a decent bit of excess moisture in the pan from the mushrooms and this is okay.

Add in the garlic and herbs, stir, and cook for an additional 3-4 more minutes. Most of the moisture from the mushrooms should have evaporated but if not, you can drain it off. Garnish with additional herbs, a squeeze of lemon juice, and ENJOY!
