How to cook it

Prep timer

285:00
  1. Set a large skillet or saute pan over medium to medium-high heat and keep the ingredients close so the cooking stays fast and even.
  2. 1. Soak dried porcini mushrooms in a heatproof bowl covered with boiling water for 10 minutes.
  3. 2. Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium heat, add onion, garlic, thyme, and salt, then sauté slowly until onions are translucent but not browned.
  4. 3. Add sliced fresh mushrooms, stir to coat in butter, and cook for 15 minutes until softened, then stir in 2 tablespoons of the porcini soaking liquid.
  5. 4. Drain the porcini mushrooms (discarding remaining liquid), add them to the pan, reduce heat to low, and cook another 10 minutes before cooling for 20 minutes off heat.
  6. 5. Transfer the cooled mushroom mixture to a food processor along with sour cream, lemon juice, extra butter, and white pepper, then blend into a smooth paste and adjust seasoning.
  7. 6. Spoon the pâté into small jars or ramekins, cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving with crackers or toasted bread.
  8. Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
