Marinated Mushrooms

From Oonagh Williams of Royal Temptations Catering

Fresh mushrooms cooked in an oil, vinegar, garlic, onion, sugar and herb marinade until tender and then left to absorb all the wonderful flavors. These mushrooms are not overly vinegary like store bought, but truly addictive as part of a salad plate, antipasto, side dish with grilled meats, etc. 

For Easter, serve these mushrooms with spiral, boneless, brown sugar spice ham (not sweet or spicy). My husband asked for the tiny fresh mushrooms to pair with cubes of cheese on a toothpick. 

Gluten-Free Marinated Mushrooms

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup oil (I use avocado oil) 
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tablespoon light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup freshly chopped parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper or 8 peppercorns
  • 3 small bay leaves
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  • 1 medium onion, peeled, halved, thinly sliced and separated
  • 1 lb whole baby mushrooms, cleaned

Directions:

  1. Combine all ingredients except mushrooms in a non reactive (stainless steel or non stick) saucepan, bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Vinegar smells strong as it heats.
  2. Add mushrooms, bring back to boil and simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Mushrooms will shrink and produce liquid.
  3. Remove from heat, pour into glass or similar non-reactive dish, cover and chill.
  4. Allow to marinate for at least 4 hours.

Mushrooms are nicest served at room temperature. I also substitute 1 lb thawed pearl onions for mushrooms and cook for about one hour to make addictive onion relish/chutney. Great on French bread with cheese, anywhere.
