Recipe by Shelley Wiseman
Dried porcini give this vinaigrette a huge boost of flavor and marry beautifully with the asparagus and goat cheese for a spring-like first course. Serve this dish with sharp knives (like steak knives) so the toast and asparagus
Ingredients
1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
1/4 cup minced shallots
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing
2 bunches (2 pounds) green asparagus (not pencil), ends trimmed to 6 inches
8 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
8 (1/2-inch thick) slices good quality bread, such as pain de mie, pullman or sourdough, crusts trimmed
Instructions
Put dried mushrooms in a heatproof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let stand 20 minutes. Pour mushrooms with liquid through a paper towel-lined sieve into a small saucepan. Transfer mushrooms to a cutting board and finely chop. Add vinegar, shallots, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and half of mushrooms to saucepan and boil mixture until it is reduced to 2/3 cup, about 10 minutes. Whisk in 1/4 cup olive oil and add salt and pepper to taste. Sauce can be served warm or at room temperature.
