For best results, ensure the beef tenderloin is completely chilled before assembling the croûtes. This will prevent the pastry from becoming soggy. Feel free to experiment with different types of mushrooms in the duxelles. A mix of wild mushrooms will add a complex flavor. The red wine reduction sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. Serve the Boeuf en Croûte with a side of roasted asparagus or a simple green salad.
