How-To-Mushrooms

Mushrooms are a great addition to almost any recipe. However, they yield so much liquid when cooked the juice can take over the flavor of a dish. We learned a nifty trick from a Cook's Magazine to microwave the mushrooms until cooked to get all the liquid out before adding them to your favorite recipe. You get all the mushroom flavor and versatility without all the juice!

Just put the desired amount of mushrooms in a microwave-safe container with a tight fitting lid. Microwave on high until cooked through - about four to five minutes, depending on the amount. Drain the liquid and cook as normal! This is a great way to start out mushrooms in wine sauce, as pizza toppings or to pasta sauces!
