4 servings
For the bruschetta base
- 8 slices sourdough bread, cut ½ inch thick
- 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
For the mushroom topping
- 1 lb mixed mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, and oyster), cleaned and roughly torn or sliced
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 shallots, finely minced
- 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tsp dry sherry or dry white wine
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For finishing
- 1–2 tbsp truffle oil
- 1 oz parmesan cheese, shaved or finely grated
- 1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven broiler to high and position a rack 6 inches from the element. Arrange the bread slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and brush both sides lightly with 2 tbsp of the olive oil. Broil for 1–2 minutes per side, watching closely, until the surface is golden and crisp at the edges.

While the toast is still hot, rub one side of each slice firmly with the cut face of a halved garlic clove — the rough surface of the toast will grate the garlic into the bread. Set the toasts aside on the baking sheet.
