Recipe by Bruce Aidells Both the turkey and the gravy get big-time flavor from earthy dried porcini mushrooms.

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms*
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 4 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh mint
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place porcini in small bowl; add 1 cup boiling water. Let stand until softened, at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours. Drain mushrooms, reserving soaking liquid. Chop mushrooms. Transfer half of chopped mushrooms (about 1/3 cup) to small bowl; reserve for gravy.
  2. Chop garlic finely in processor. Add butter and next 6 ingredients, then remaining porcini. Blend to coarse paste. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Transfer to bowl. Cover and chill mushroom butter, reserved chopped porcini, and mushroom liquid separately. TRUE GRIT: When using the porcini soaking liquid, pour it off slowly so that any grit or sediment at the bottom remains in the bowl.
  3. *Dried porcini are available at supermarkets, specialty foods stores, and Italian markets.
