How to make mushroom pinwheels even better?

Enhance the flavour

• White wine: Add a splash of white wine to the chantrelle mushrooms while sautéing. This adds a bright, acidic note that enhances the natural flavours of the chanterelles.
• Cream: A dash of cream can make the filling richer and more luxurious. It blends well with the earthy mushrooms and creates a velvety texture. Check this recipe for winter chanterelle puff rolls

Only for Cheese lovers

• Parmesan cheese: Sprinkle grated Parmesan over the chanterelle mushrooms before rolling the dough. This adds a sharp, nutty flavour that complements the mushrooms beautifully.
• Gruyère cheese: Grated Gruyère has a creamy, slightly sweet flavour that melts perfectly and adds a delicious layer of cheese to the pinwheels.

No chanterelles? No problem, mushroom pinwheels can also be made with other types of mushrooms.

Chanterelle mushrooom substitutes

• Cremini mushrooms: If you can’t find chanterelles, cremini mushrooms are a great alternative. They have a meaty texture and a robust, earthy flavour that works well in this recipe.
• Shiitake mushrooms: Shiitake mushrooms have a rich, umami flavour. They add depth and a unique savoury note, making them an excellent substitute for chanterelles.
• Oyster Mushrooms: With a delicate texture and mild flavor, oyster mushrooms work well as a substitute. They also have a lovely, slightly nutty taste.

Herbs to add or replace that I know work

• Thyme: Fresh or dried thyme adds a subtle, earthy flavour that pairs beautifully with mushrooms. Sprinkle it over the mushrooms while sautéing.
• Rosemary: Rosemary adds a piney, aromatic flavour. Use it sparingly as its strong flavour can quickly overpower a dish. Add a few finely chopped leaves to enhance the overall aroma and flavour.
