Marinate Mushrooms







Perfect for picnics, or sophisticated enough to place on your Thanksgiving dinner table, marinated mushrooms have a tangy taste that will keep people asking for more. Here's a great recipe.


Instructions


1. Cut mushrooms into small bite-sized pieces. If you purchase white buttons mushrooms, they will not need any additional chopping. Place into first bowl.


2. Add chopped chives into first bowl with the mushrooms. Set aside the bowl.








3. Press two cloves of garlic using a garlic press and place the pressed cloves in a second bowl. Also, chop fresh basil finely and add to the garlic.


4. Combine cider vinegar, olive oil, salt, tabasco, dried parsley and dried oregano into the second bowl.


5. Whisk the contents of the second bowl until they are mixed.


6. Pour contents of the second bowl over the mushrooms. Allow the mushrooms to marinate for 1 hour. Half way through, give the mushrooms a good stir to make sure they mix with the dressing. Serve the mushrooms at room temperature. These mushrooms will keep a little over a week in your fridge.
