This Wild Mushrooms on toast recipe is simple but amazingly tasty. The beurre blanc sauce finishes the dish with its lovely smooth texture and outstanding flavour. I normally use oyster mushrooms, button mushrooms, chanterelles amongst others. Just visit your local supermarket to discover a world of flavours that most people walk past. I serve this as a breakfast or brunch and is one of the most requested recipe. This recipe uses wholegrain bread but I have also used Brioche as the base. Both breads are ideal at absorbing the juices and the beurre blanc sauce. If you would like a meal in a rush then this is one of them.
