Wild Mushroom Duxelles

Duxelles are actually nothing more than minced and flavoured mushrooms that have been deprived of most of their moisture. They can then be used as a filling for many dishes, such as ravioli, stuffed mushrooms, squid or pockets of puff or other pastry, or they can be added to sauces, stews and soups. You could also use this tasty treat on toast or bruschetta. It may most famously be of French origin, but it is now used all over the world.
