Steps to make this recipe
Step 1: make your spread
To begin, start to make your spread. Bring out your goat cheese to room temperature (this helps make it creamy, and helps blend a little bit better). In a food processor or blender, add in your goat cheese, yogurt, garlic cloves, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper. Pulse and blend until a creamy dip forms.
*If it’s too thick, adjust as needed with more olive oil and lemon juice.
Step 2: make your mushrooms
Next, make mushrooms. In a cast iron, or skillet, drizzle olive oil and melt butter until glistening. Add in your assorted sliced mushrooms. Let them sweat out for 5-6 minutes until reduced in size.
Step 3: season as you go
Season with salt and pepper and add in your minced garlic as well as sage. Cook until fragrant and sautéed.
Step 4: add in white wine
Add in white wine and let reduce on medium high heat, about 15-20 minutes. Once reduced, let your mushrooms continue to brown and crisp a tad until your desired crisp, on a lower heat. I like mine to have some form of char and crisp, but also still have their regular texture and form.
Step 5: make your toasts
At this time, you can start to assemble your toasts. Preheat you oven to 400 degrees. Slice your baguette on a bias (or your desired slice), and place on a baking tray with parchment. Season with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper and toast/bake for about 10-15 minutes. Set aside when done.
*Tip: when your toasts are out of the oven, you can also take a garlic clove and rub it on the warm toast. This will add a lot of garlicky flavor to your toasts, if you’re into that.
Step 6
Now back to the mushrooms. When they are ready, turn off the heat, add in your lemon zest, lemon juice and toss.
Step 7: assemble
Begin to assemble your toasts. Spread on your whipped goat cheese on the toast, top with your mushrooms and finish with chopped parsley, a little drizzle of olive oil and flakey salt.
