Wild Mushrooms en Papillote

This elegant vegetarian dish of wild mushrooms en papillote celebrates the earthy, deep flavours of seasonal fungi. By steaming the mushrooms inside parchment parcels, you lock in all the natural juices, creating a sophisticated woodland aroma that is released the moment the paper is opened at the table. It is a wonderful way to showcase a variety of textures, from delicate oyster mushrooms to robust girolles.

Perfect as a light starter or a refined side dish, these parcels are remarkably simple to prepare. The combination of melted butter, garlic, and a trio of fresh herbs—tarragon, parsley, and chives—infuses the mushrooms with a classic savoury finish. Serve them with crusty sourdough bread to mop up the fragrant herb butter and a squeeze of fresh lemon to brighten the dish.
