Recipe Difficulty

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp salted butter
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 cup diced yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 6 cups sliced mushrooms
  • ½ cup white wine
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 4 cups milk (2%)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground pepper
  • ¾ cup shredded smoked Gouda
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese, divided
  • 1 tsp dried thyme, crumbled

Directions

  1. Melt butter with oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté onion until softened and slightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Increase heat to medium-high. Add mushrooms; sauté until softened and slightly browned, about 3 minutes. Pour in wine. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute. Add flour and Dijon mustard. Stir until incorporated. Reduce heat to medium. Gradually whisk in milk. Simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 8 – 10 minutes.
  2. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Stir in Gouda cheese, ½ Swiss cheese and thyme. Stir until cheese is melted. Transfer sauce to a heatproof bowl. Let cool, stirring occasionally, to room temperature. Partially cover bowl and refrigerate until completely cooled, about 1 hour. Remove sauce from refrigerator. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  4. Spread 1/3 cup mushroom sauce down center of each crepe. Roll up crepes to enclose filling. Transfer crepes to a greased 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with remaining Swiss cheese. Crepes may be prepared to the point and cooked or refrigerated overnight.
  5. Bake until heated through and cheese is melted, about 25 – 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes. Makes 18 crepes.
