My Goals and Discoveries
Easy method; complex flavor
Taking time to develop a good fond by browning the mushrooms and aromatics, deglazing with sherry, and using the broiler to crisp bread cubes turn simple ingredients into a satisfying meal.
Varied textures
Dense mushrooms, tender carrots, creamy beans, and toasted bread cubes make each bite slightly different.
Silky gravy
Starchy bean liquid and flour thicken the sauce nicely.
