Italian Mushrooms Recipes

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 the oven to 425 degrees F. Remove the stems from 24 large cremini mushrooms (finely chop the stems for the filling).
• Wipe the caps clean with a damp paper towel, then toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt . Arrange on a baking sheet.
• Cook 4 ounces sweet Italian sausage (casing removed) in a skillet with olive oil over medium heat, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, 3 minutes. Add 1/2 finely chopped fennel bulb and the chopped mushroom stems and cook until tender, 3 minutes. Add 2 chopped garlic cloves, season with red pepper flakes and cook 1 minute. Let cool, then mix with 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup shredded fontina and 2 tablespoons each grated parmesan, chopped parsley and chopped green olives. Divide among the mushroom caps.
• Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then remove from the baking sheet.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• For the mushrooms: If your mushrooms caps are very rounded, trim a very thin slice from the top of the caps to help them sit upright for baking. Toss the mushroom caps with the olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• For the filling: Heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped mushroom stems, celery and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until just soft, 6 to 8 minutes. Scrape into another large bowl, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and set aside to cool.
• Add the mozzarella, sausage, basil and pepperoncini to the cooled mushroom stem mixture. Stir in the breadcrumbs until well moistened.
• Pack each mushroom with an equal amount of filling and transfer the filled mushrooms to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the mushrooms are tender and the filling is brown and crispy on top, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet. Sprinkle with basil leaves if using.

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:

• Place mushrooms in a 6-qt. slow cooker. Mix remaining ingredients; pour over mushrooms. Cook, covered, on low until mushrooms are tender, 5-6 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:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic in the oil until they start to become tender. Add the mushrooms, and fry until they begin to shrink, about 3 to 4 minutes. Toss in the spinach, and fry, stirring constantly for a few minutes, or until spinach is wilted.
• Add the vinegar, stirring constantly until it is absorbed, then stir in the white wine. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until the wine has almost completely absorbed. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish with oil. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped mushroom stems, fennel, tomatoes, and garlic. Sauté until stems and fennel are tender and beginning to brown, about 12 minutes; transfer to medium bowl. Cool 10 minutes. Mix in cheeses, then basil. Season filling to taste with salt and pepper. Mix in egg. Arrange mushroom caps in prepared dish, cavity side up. Brush mushroom cavities lightly with additional oil. Mound filling in mushroom cavities, pressing to adhere. Bake until mushrooms are tender and filling is heated through, about 25 minutes, and serve.
