I’ve made these for years especially at Christmas time.
They’re so easy to make that I’m not sure why I don’t make them more often.
Oh, right. No one in this house likes them!
I disagree with the females in the house on this one.
These are yummy little morsels (morels?) of happiness.
And I have a right to be happy.
I’m a fungi . . . (my token ‘shroom joke)
You will need:
1 to 1.5 lbs of fresh mushrooms, washed and cut up
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp light brown sugar
2 cloves of garlic, pressed with a cleaver (more garlic, if you prefer)
Dried basil, black peppercorns, crushed red pepper ( small amount of each)
Dash of Worcestershire Sauce
Heat everything except the mushrooms to a boil.
Simmer on low 10 minutes and add mushrooms.
Stir, cover and continue simmering for 5 minutes.
Cool, store and refrigerate.
(and find those toothpicks you know you bought last week)
Not sure what the shelf life is on these puppies because there are never any left.
Enjoy!
