Stuffed Mushrooms

Pair with Oloroso

Mushrooms and Oloroso are an unbelievable match thanks to their shared earthiness. The flavors of the wine are echoed both in the walnuts and the umami of the parmesan.

Ingredients

1 Tbs

olive oil

baby portobello mushrooms

1/2

onion

14 oz

can of artichoke hearts

2 cups

fresh spinach leaves

4 oz

cream cheese

1/2 cup

walnuts

1/2 cup

parmesan cheese, shredded

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degree F.

Wash and dry all produce. Remove stems from mushrooms and chop. Chop onion. Drain can of artichoke hearts and chop the artichokes into small pieces. Chop spinach.

Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until the onion starts to turn translucent (3-5 mins). Add in the chopped mushroom stems. Stir frequently. Once the mushroom stems have softened, add in spinach and artichokes. Cook until the spinach as wilted. Stir in the cream cheese and cook until the cream cheese has melted and is fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside.

Chop walnuts until they are very fine. Alternatively, you can use a food processor. Combine with shredded parmesan cheese.

Place the mushroom tops on a large baking sheet. Generously fill each with the spinach artichoke mixture and then sprinkle the walnut parmesan mixture on top. Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the mushrooms have softened. Remove from oven, let cool slightly then serve. Enjoy!

Pairing Oloroso with food

The ideal temperature at which to serve an Oloroso is at between 12 and 14ºC.

This is the most suitable wine to accompany red meat and game. It combines perfectly with meat stews and casseroles; especially gelatinous meat such as bull's tail or cheeks. The perfect match for wild mushrooms and well cured cheeses.
