Italian Mushroom Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange first four ingredients in a shallow glass pan.
• Combine salad dressing ingredients in a jar with a lid; shake very well and pour over vegetables.
• Cover and refrigerate for an hour.
• Drain dressing into salad cruet.
• Toss vegetables and arrange on chilled plates lined with mixed salad greens.
• Serve with extra dressing to pass.

Steps:

• Shake together oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
• Pour over very thinly sliced mushrooms.
• Toss lightly until mushrooms are thoroughly coated.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 1 to 2 hours, or overnight if preferred.
• To serve, place drained mushrooms on lettuce, endive, or watercress.
• Garnish with green onion, chives, or anchovies.

Steps:

• The stems and caps of the mushrooms are used for different parts of the recipe, so separating them is the first step. Take a knife and cut the stems from the caps of all the different mushroom varieties, put the caps in one bowl, and the stems in another. Next we make a stock by placing all the mushroom stems into a pot, along with the bay leaves, white peppercorns, teaspoon of salt and water. Bring that to a heavy boil, and let reduce. All of this needs to reduce to 1/4 of a cup of finished stock, so patience is needed. After about 15 to 20 minutes on high heat, take the stock and pour through a fine strainer, if 1/4 cup of liquid is left, discard the pulp and save the liquid off to one side. Take the mushroom caps, and slice them. Add the sliced mushroom caps and saute in butter until tender. Then add in the shallots and garlic, and only saute for about another minute, or until the shallots and garlic are translucent. Pull the saute pan off the stove, and add the curry powder, fresh herbs, red bell peppers, oils, rice vinegar, pinch of salt and pepper, and mushroom stock. Pour this mixture into a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let sit in a warm place for 1 hour, to allow all the flavors and aromas of the stock to infuse into the mushrooms. Strain this salad, and serve the mushrooms on one plate, and save the stock as a dressing.

Steps:

• Toss 1 pound thinly sliced button mushrooms with 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons each chopped parsley, dill and chives in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Place the mushrooms in a medium glass bowl. Add the vinaigrette and toss gently. Allow to sit at least 10 minutes, until the mushrooms are wilted and impregnated with sauce. Check for seasoning and add additional salt and pepper, if necessary.;
• Place shallot, garlic, parsley, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper in the bottom of a small mixing bowl. Stir to combine, then whisk in olive oil in a slow, steady stream. Alternately, place all ingredients in a clean 8-ounce jar. Cover and shake vigorously.

Steps:

• In a 3-qt. slow cooker, layer mushrooms and onion. Combine butter and salad dressing mix; pour over vegetables. Cover and cook on low until vegetables are tender, 4-5 hours. Serve with a slotted spoon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F/180°C.
• Brush off any dirt from mushrooms, remove and finely chop stems and put caps aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in large skillet and add chopped stems, onion, pepper and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, about 3-5 minutes, until onions have softened.
• Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Stir in bread crumbs, parmesan, olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly. If mixture seems a bit dry, add a little more olive oil.
• With your hands, fill mushroom caps with mixture. Place on oiled baking sheet with lip or jellyroll pan. Drizzle a few drops of olive oil onto each mushroom.
• Bake 15-20 minutes until golden and hot.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Boil vinegar and water.
• Wash, clean mushrooms. If small, leave whole. If large, cut and quarter, slice them so they are not too big.
• Cook for 5 minutes.
• Drain liquid. I like to squeeze out some of the liquid out of mushrooms. Place in quart size glass jar, add garlic, spices and drizzle of oil. Shake it up and refrigerate. Can stay up to two weeks if they last that long.

Steps:

• Toss together the mushrooms, celery, parsley, and chives, and season with salt and pepper. Mix together the lemon juice (or lemon juice and vinegar) and olive oil, and toss with the vegetables. Just before serving, toss again with the Parmesan.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
• Combine olive oil, white wine vinegar, red onion, oregano, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large jar with a lid. Close jar and shake well. Add cooked mushrooms and refrigerate at least 5 hours. Remove from refrigerator 10 minutes prior to serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Remove stems from mushrooms. Chop stems and set aside. Brush caps with 1 tablespoon olive oil and place on the prepared baking sheet with the open sides up.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and Italian seasoning; cook for 2 minutes. Add mushroom stems and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl.
• Add crushed saltines, Asiago cheese, and ricotta cheese to the onion-mushroom mixture and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Fill each mushroom cap with a spoonful of the mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until mushrooms are tender and filling is bubbling slightly, 20 to 25 minutes.
