A flavorful mixture of asparagus, chanterelle and crimini mushrooms, gruyere, creme fraiche, lemon and thyme, baked on buttery puff pastry. A lemon-parmesan dressed arugula salad complemented.
FYI, Trader Joe’s has a delicious all-butter puff pastry that tastes every bit as good as the super-expensive Dufour brand, in my opinion. I much prefer it to the Pepperidge Farm (all shortening, I believe) frozen puff pastry. Definitely worth having some in your freezer.
A solid dressing that could stand up to the arugula. It was like flavors kick boxing in my mouth. In a good way.
Agreed, the dressing really made that salad.
That’s good to know about the Trader Joes puff pastry, but I really prefer to make mine from scratch.
Okay really, these meals look amazing, I am waiting for an invite to Chez Brasterrie.
