HERB SAUCE WITH SHALLOTS RECIPE

It seems every February our farm is buzzing with potato, onion, garlic and shallot orders, as gardeners scramble to get their spring orders in, and we scramble to get them all fulfilled. Last week I took a break, and cooked some of what we sell, with a delicious result....

2 tablespoons organic virgin olive oil
1 clove Nootka Rose garlic , finely minced
3 large Dutch Red shallots, finely chopped
1/2 pound Crimini mushrooms, sliced
1/3 cup Marsala wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh organic basil or 4 ice cubes of frozen basil
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

In a heavy skillet, warm olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots, and saute until fragrant, about 2-3 Red Shallots organicminutes. Add sliced mushrooms, and continue cooking for 5-7 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are soft. Stir in the Marsala wine, and cook over medium-high heat for an additional 2-3 minutes. Add basil and parsley, and sea salt and pepper to taste, continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes or until all ingredients are heated thoroughly. If using frozen basil, add an additional 2-3 minutes of cooking time.

Use this robust sauce with pork chops, beef, chicken or turkey.

Shop for organic garlic and shallots
