WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THIS RECIPE?

  • Olive oil and butter – why both?  The butter adds richness and the olive oil helps to raise the smoke point of the butter.
  • White button mushrooms – whole mushrooms.  You could also use baby portabellas.  Try to find mushrooms that are similar in size so they cook evenly.
  • Worcestershire sauce – brings a beefy flavor to the mushrooms
  • Dry white wine – this is optional but adds a TON of flavor
  • Black pepper – preferably freshly ground
  • Garlic – lots of it
  • Fresh parsley – for garnish

HOW TO CLEAN MUSHROOMS

Mushrooms often have quite a bit of dirt on them when packaged.  You want to make sure that you get all of it off before adding the mushrooms to your pan.

  1. Brush off as much dirt as possible with a paper towel or a very soft-bristled brush.  Be sure to get the stem and around the gills.
  2. Mushrooms are like little sponges, so if you plan on eating them raw, don’t wash them.  But for this recipe we’ll be pan-sauteing them, so run them under cold water to remove the last of the debris.
  3. If you feel the need, you can peel the mushrooms after rinsing them. Use a sharp paring knife to pry away the first layer of skin.

VARIATIONS

  • Add minced onion
  • Fresh thyme and rosemary are delicious with the mushrooms
  • You could use a dry red wine instead of the white wine
  • Don’t want the alcohol?  Add beef broth instead.
