How to Make Sourdough Mushroom Toast

This recipe is incredibly straightforward, making it ideal for a quick preparation.

Heat a medium-sized pan over medium-high heat.
Add the vegan butter and let it melt completely.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 45 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the sliced shiitake mushrooms, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the mushrooms begin to turn golden brown and soften.
Add the chopped kale and 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds to the pan. Cook until the kale is wilted, stirring occasionally.
Push the mushroom and kale mixture to one side of the pan. Place the sourdough bread slices directly into the pan next to the mixture to "toast" them in the same pan, absorbing some of the delicious flavors.
Once the bread is toasted to your liking, remove it from the pan.
Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus evenly over each slice of toasted sourdough.
Generously top the hummus-coated bread with the savory mushroom and kale mixture.
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley, additional sesame seeds, and a drizzle of tahini for an extra layer of flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Variations & Adaptations

Make it Gluten-Free: Simply swap the sourdough bread for your favorite gluten-free bread slices.
Spice It Up (or Down!): Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes to suit your heat preference. For more kick, add a pinch more; for less, reduce or omit entirely.
Add Extra Creaminess: A few slices of fresh avocado or a dollop of vegan cream cheese can add another layer of richness.
Protein Boost: For an even heartier meal, add a small side of scrambled tofu or a sprinkle of hemp seeds on top.
Herb Power: Experiment with other fresh herbs like chives or cilantro for different flavor profiles.

Tips for the Perfect Mushroom Toast

Pan-Toasting Perfection: Toasting the bread in the same pan as the mushrooms not only saves a dish but also infuses your sourdough with extra savory flavor. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Browning Mushrooms: Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms. If you have a smaller pan or a larger batch, cook them in batches to ensure they brown nicely rather than steam. This brings out their deep umami flavor.
Wilted Kale: Cook the kale just until it's tender and bright green. Overcooking can make it mushy and diminish its vibrant color.
Freshness is Key: The fresh parsley and tahini drizzle truly elevate this dish, adding brightness and nutty depth. Don't skip them for the best flavor!
