This all came together while walking through Costco. Had the baguettes in the cart - saw the steak and that sounded good - the spinach was next and I've been thinking of a mushroom pate for a while - they all worked together quite well...
Start With A Nice Baguette
The baguette came from Costco - they have pretty dang good bread products there; if you've never tried them you should...
Add Some Dijon Mustard
Just your average Dijon mustard - could use just about anything here I guess (well maybe not standard yellow mustard)
Pile On Some Fresh Spinach
Washed and uncooked spinach - gave a nice crunch and mix of textures...
A Nice Helping Of A Simple Mushroom Pate
The mushroom pate was very simple - normally I'd go with a pound of mushrooms, 1 small onion, 2 cloves garlic, thyme, splash of cognac, butter, half and half or cream cheese - cook all but the cream or cheese them blitz them all together to the consistency you want...
I used flank steak. It sat in some beer, garlic, salt, pepper, dash of cumin. Grilling it would be best but this was done in a pan on t he stove...
This was one for the keeper pile - it was freaking amazing...
Bon Appetit...
