Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Pour vegetable oil in a medium saucepan with high sides to a depth of 2 inches. Preheat oil to 375 degrees F.
  2. Combine the buttermilk and hot sauce in a small bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, salt, Essence, and pepper. Dip the mushrooms into the buttermilk, and 1 at a time, dredge in the cornmeal mixture. Shake any excess mixture off of the mushrooms and fry, in batches, in the preheated oil until crispy and golden, about 1 1/2 minutes per batch. Remove the mushrooms with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season fried mushrooms with additional Essence.
  3. Toss the greens in a large bowl with the desired amount of dressing. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper, as needed. Arrange the salad greens on plates and divide the chanterelles, evenly among the plates. Top each salad with Parmesan shavings and serve immediately.

  37. In a food processor or blender, blend the whole egg, the yolk, lemon juice, mustard, and 1 tablespoon of water for 20 seconds. With the processor running, slowly pour in the oil through the feed tube, processing until the mixture begins to thicken. When half of the oil has been incorporated, add the remaining tablespoon of water. With the motor running, add the remaining oil in a thin, steady stream, processing until thick.

  39. *RAW EGG WARNING
  40. Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
