Russian Pickled Mushrooms
This easy Russian pickled mushrooms recipe is a great way to use some of those leftover mushrooms, and use them for your sandwiches and snack bars.
Ingredients
- 1 lb button mushrooms
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup vinegar
- 2 tablespoon green onion chopped
- 2-3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoon chopped fresh basil leaves
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Add water to a medium saucepan or pot and bring to a boil.
- Add the mushrooms and let the mushrooms cook for 3-4 minutes, until they're just a bit tender.
- In a bowl, add all the rest of the ingredients and prepare a marinade.
- Drain the mushrooms. Add mushrooms into the marinade.
- Marinate for at least 24 hours, and keep in the fridge at all times.
- Your pickled mushrooms are ready to eat.
Notes
- To add more flavor and a bit of a different texture and color to these mushrooms, you can also add some carrots into the mix.
- Another great idea is to try this recipe with two different kinds of mushrooms. Choose what you can get your hands on, clean it, and put it to use.
- Ideally, you’ll want to transfer them to a clean mason jar, and let them refrigerate for at least 24 hours. This gives the mushrooms time to absorb all of the delicious liquid and flavors.
- If the mushrooms are large, you can cut them in half and then into bite sized pieces before you add them to the pickling brine.
