Mushroom Phyllo Turnovers




Cookbook * The Angelica Home Kitchen
Recipe * Mushroom Phyllo Turnovers
Yumm/Yuck * Yumm with Help

There was a time when the thought of using phyllo mortified me. Its too temperamental, too vulnerable to drying out or sticking together...you understand. Well, this recipe has cured my phllyo phobia. Instructions are easy to follow and after you do about 12 or so, it kind of becomes fun, in a "get a life" kind of way. The filling is rich with mushrooms, spinach, sage, tofu, garlic, onion, and other good stuff that tastes great and smells like the holidays. While these morsels are flavorful as is, they could be improved dramatically with a little help. Eat your spinach!

Help: Try steaming the spinach separately and then press, squeeze and otherwise ring the hell out of it before adding to the saute. If you follow the cookbook instructions, you will steam the spinach directly with the filling and the water released by the spinach when it cooks will dilute your lovely filling. I know, I should have known better, but I like to give cookbooks the benefit of the doubt as they are usually right.

I confess to being scared of phyllo. My attempts have been only moderately successful....

"wring the hell out of it" cracked me up! Well done,
Amey

Well, they certainly look like they turned out well and the filling sounds really tasty. Sometimes I wonder if using Pilsbury crescent rolls instead of phyllo would work just as well. Sometimes I'm an impatient cook!

I have been surfing online more than 3 hours today,
yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet
will be much more useful than ever before.

Hi there! Quick question that's completely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when viewing from my iphone. I'm trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to
correct this issue. If you have any recommendations,
please share. Thanks!
