     Title: CATHE'S STUFFED MUSHROOMS
Categories: Appetizers, Cathe
     Yield: 1 batch

   1/2 lb Mushrooms (w/ big caps)
     1 md Onion, chopped finely
   1/2 c  Clam juice
     3 T  Sauterne wine
   1/4 c  Bread crumbs
     3 T  Butter
   1/2 c  Half and half
     3 T  Parmesan cheese

 Pop stems out of shrooms (don't tear cups).  Cut stems up finely.  Saute
 shrooms and onions in butter (or olive oil) slowly, over medium-low heat,
 until limp; be careful not to let mixture burn.

 Add clam juice and wine; cook slowly until most of the liquid has
 evaporated.  Add bread crumbs to shroom mixture in pan; mix well.  Should
 be quite dry.

 Add half and half until mixture has a good texture, like slightly dampish
 clay for hand-building pottery.  Add parmesan.

 Fill mushroom caps with mixture (will have to mound).  Bake in toaster
 oven at 250 degrees F. until mushrooms start looking shriveled and ooze
 juice, getting brown.  If unsure, taste.

 Vicki's notes:

 *  Don't cut mushrooms too finely.

 *  Try adding crumbled bacon to mixture.
