Mushroom Turnovers Come Alive!
These are even better than the fried version! With deep, dark, woodsy shiitake mushrooms marinated in rich seasonings layered between delicate, crispy flax "pastry". Decadent! Yet very healthy. And, most importantly, alive and full of natures mysterious goodness.
This recipe takes a day or so to make right. So I like to prepare this larger quantity of the flax pastry and mushroom filling ahead of time, at the same time, and then once the pastry is crispy, assemble as needed. The crust keeps for a long time. And the mushroom filling will keep for a couple of days, and get more yummy after a day or so, but is yummy even immediately, if you can't wait!
Also, if you're looking for a raw, healthy version of phyllo dough, for baklava, or spanakopita or whatever, this flax pastry is for you!

4. Hopefully, the instructions
Hopefully, the instructions are at least reasonably indicative of the actual process of making this! :-) I made it again yesterday and just ate it for breakfast, and it wasn't quite as good. I think I used more of the other mushrooms that I had, and not as many of the shiitake, which I think might really be the key to success. Those shiitake are just so flavorful...
