Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 lb button mushroom

Method

  • In a medium saucepan, bring 1/4 cup water, 2 Tbs each olive oil and white wine vinegar, 2 minced cloves, 1/4 tsp dried thyme, 1 1/4 tsp coarse salt, and 1/4 tsp ground black pepper to a boil.
  • Add 1 pound button mushrooms, halved or quartered; stir to coat.
  • Cover; simmer over low heat until mushrooms are tender and have released their liquid, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon to a bowl; reserve.
  • Return liquid to a boil; cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Pour over mushrooms. Refrigerate until completely chilled; serve. For the most flavor, let them marinate overnight.
