Ingredients:


38 large gourmet mushrooms -- stems removed and reserved

6 bunch scallions chopped

1/2 stick butter unsalted

1 pint mushroom stems -- chopped fine

10 slices bacon

16 ounces blue cheese at room temperature

1 teaspoon sweet basil -- (5 ml)

1 teaspoon cardemon -- (5 ml)
 

Preparation / Directions:


Clean mushrooms: DO NOT RINSE THEM, BRUSH DIRT OFF WITH ANYTHING DRY (paper towel, brush, etc). Set out a cookie sheet with sides, clean and take out stems (keep stems), and set mushrooms in a row on cookie sheet. Saute stems and scallions until soft. Cool.Cook (on one side only) bacon. Mix blue cheese, basil, cardemon, sour cream in a bowl. Drizzle with wine, blending until mixture has a cookie dough consistency. Stuff the mushrooms with mixture (mound a bit) using two tsps. Cut each bacon slice into fourths and put the side that was NOT cooked up on top of mixture. Broil about 1 minute or two (WATCH IT), until the cheese melts and bacon is crisp.
