Garlic-and-Gruyère-Stuffed Mushrooms

Each summer, at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in Gilroy, California—home to 90 percent of the American garlic crop—festivalgoers can nosh on a wide assortment of garlicky dishes, ranging from spaghetti enrobed in a pungent pesto to garlic ice cream. One of our favorites is this dish of garlic-stuffed mushrooms, which we've enhanced with a little dry sherry and nutty Gruyère cheese.
