Shiitakes And Corn En Papillote

The mounded mushroom mixture will seem like a lot per person but will shrink during baking. Leave some space between the mushrooms and the crimped edge to allow room for the packet to puff up.

Type: Vegetables
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

  Olive oil - as needed
2   Fresh corn ears - kernels removed (large)
3/4 lb 340g / 11ozShiitake mushrooms - stemmed, wiped
  Clean and cut into 3/4" dice
2   Garlic cloves - minced
1 tablespoon 15mlChopped fresh thyme
3/4 cup 177mlDry white wine
3/4 cup 177mlHeavy cream
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut 4 sheets of baking parchment into 15- by 12-inch pieces. Fold each piece in half and cut into the shape of half a heart. Open to reveal a whole heart and brush each sheet lightly with olive oil along the fold in the middle. Set aside.

Combine the corn kernels, mushrooms, garlic, thyme, wine and cream in large bowl and toss to mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Divide the mixture among the parchment sheets, mounding along the fold on one side of the heart. Fold the parchment over and tightly crimp the edges to seal completely. Transfer to a baking sheet.

Bake 30 minutes. Transfer to serving plates and slit open just before serving. Serve immediately.
