  • Robbie, thats a good Cream of Mushroom recipe; thank you for sharing it here online. I am a private chef and enjoy trying other chef's variations. I did increase the sherry to two+ tablespoons of sherry. I used a good expensive spanish sherry and served the dish with a fume blanc [saugvion blanc + chardonnay]. The chemistry was good with the sherry. The blender puree is a nice touch incidentally. The mushrooms I used were half shitake pieces less stems and half 1" button browns chopped. When I have a few more minutes free I will order a copy of your book for the kitchen library. Two thumbs up!
