Instructions
Step 1
Clean and trim morels. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add morels and shallots. Cook, stirring, until morels begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
Step 2
Increase heat to high, add madeira and heavy cream, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring frequently, for 8 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, remove and discard crusts from bread. Toast bread, cut diagonally, and arrange on 4 small plates.
Step 4
Dissolve arrowroot in 1 tbsp. water in a small bowl. Stir mixture into mushroom sauce, season with salt and pepper, and simmer until sauce thickens, 1–2 minutes. Spoon over toast. Garnish with parsley and serve.
