CHEF's TIP:
If the mixture is fluid enough, fill a plastic storage bag and slice off one of the bottom corner. Use this as a "pastry bag" to fill the mushrooms - this is especially important if you've doubled or tripled the recipe and have many mushrooms to fill. Otherwise, a Parisianne Scoop (or "Melon Baller") may be used to evenly portion and fill the caps.
