Poached Maitake Mushrooms and Fava Beans in Parsnip Broth with Spanish Olive Oil and Epazote
- Level: Intermediate
- Total: 2 hr 45 min
- Prep: 45 min
- Cook: 2 hr
- Yield: 6 to 8 servings
Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds parsnips, cleaned and brunoise
2 quarts water
Sea salt
1/2 pound maitake mushrooms, diced
4 tablespoons epazote sprigs, Mexican herb
1/2 cup peeled and blanched fava beans
1/4 cup Spanish extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
- Place parsnips in a saucepan and cover with water. Simmer until the parsnips are soft, about 1 1/2 hours. The reduction of liquid will result in flavor intensity. Pass through a strainer, discard the solids, and season with salt.
- For each serving place two or three pieces of maitake mushrooms, and a few sprigs of epazote into a small saucepan. Cover with the hot parsnip broth, and simmer for 3 minutes. Finish with 4 or 5 fava beans and a tablespoon of olive oil. Simmer for 1 minute. Remove the epazote and discard.
- To serve, place in a small serving bowl, and garnish with a fresh sprig of epazote.
