Mushroom-Gruyère Swirls
Makes 16


1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 (4-ounce) gourmet blend fresh
mushrooms
¼ cup sliced shallots
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon fi nely chopped fresh
rosemary
¼ teaspoon salt
1⁄8 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff
pastry (1 sheet)
½ cup shredded Gruyère cheese
1 large egg
1 tablespoon water



  • In a medium nonstick skillet, com-
    bine butter and oil over medium-high
    heat. When butter melts, add mush-
    rooms, shallots, Worcestershire sauce,
    rosemary, salt, and pepper. Reduce
    heat to medium-low, and cook, stir-
    ring occasionally, until mushrooms
    are browned and tender. Let cool
    completely.

  • Transfer mushroom mixture to a
    cutting board, and using a chef’s knife,
    fi nely chop.

  • Let puff pastry thaw just enough to
    be able to roll up and encase fi lling.
    (It should still be cold and fi rm.) Unroll
    puff pastry sheet on a lightly fl oured
    surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out
    puff pastry to a 12x10-inch rectangle.
    Spread mushroom mixture onto puff


pastry, leaving a 1-inch margin around
edges. Sprinkle evenly with cheese.
Starting at a long end, roll up pastry
fi rmly and evenly to encase ingredients
and form a cylinder. Tuck ends under.
Wrap securely in plastic wrap, and
refrigerate for 1 hour and up to a day.


  • Preheat oven to 400°. Line a rimmed
    baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Unwrap puff pastry cylinder. Using
    a serrated bread knife in a gentle
    sawing motion, cut 16 (¾-inch) slices
    from puff pastry cylinder. Place slices 2
    inches apart on prepared baking sheet.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg
    and 1 tablespoon water. Brush slices
    with egg wash.

  • Bake until golden brown, 13 to 15
    minutes. Serve immediately.
