Tips and Tricks

• Since the recipe celebrates mushrooms, fresh baby bella or cremini mushrooms will ensure the dish has a rich, earthy flavor.
• The choice of whole-grain Dijon mustard, specifically Maille Old-Style mustard, is recommended to balance the flavors with its tangy and slightly spicy taste.
• Swiss cheese is preferred for its reliability and mild yet distinct flavor. Grating it yourself from a block rather than pre-shredded cheese makes a difference in taste and texture.
