I made this for a dinner party I catered last night. It’s a great dish for entertaining because all the work is done ahead of time. It’s simple to prepare, but does take several steps to achieve the rich, finished flavors. One step I skip (to the horror of Julia Child and Escoffier) is browning ...

3oz shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps roughly chopped
1 large shallot, roughly chopped
