“Duxelles” is a fancy (well, not so much fancy as it is a French) word for a finely chopped mixture of mushrooms, mushroom stems, onions, shallots, and herbs sauteed in butter, then reduced to a paste. Sometimes cream is added, as well. It’s a basic preparation used in gravies, sauces, and as a filling for a savory pastry mushroom tart.
