I didn’t blend and added garlic to the shallots. Everyone loved this with steaks, even the take-them-or-leave-them mushroom people.

Made with dried cepes. Didn’t blend. Great with a pork roast that needed some moisture.

Made with beautiful oysters here in Mexico. Used crema. Excellent. Served on roasted chicken thighs.

Very easy. I was surprised how much blending the mushrooms added to the overall flavor. I cheated by adding the additional butter and cream to the blender instead of returning it to the pan. The mushrooms were plenty hot to melt the butter.
