Sauteed Mushrooms

Ingredients:

1/2 kilo fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 tablespoon chopped green onion
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Sweet pepper, sliced
Salt

How to cook Sauteed Mushrooms:

• Wash or wipe mushrooms and slice them.
• In a saucepan, melt butter and when it begins to foam, add mushrooms, salt and stir constantly.
• After 3 minutes, add pepper and soy sauce and additional butter if necessary.
• Cook for 1 minute after juice begins to come from mushrooms. Yield: 5 servings.

COOKING AND HEALTH TIPS:

Mushrooms soak up water like a sponge, then release it later while cooking ( which can change the consistency of recipes ). Try “dry cleaning” your favorite fungi. You can find a “mushroom brush” with soft bristles at most kitchen stores. Lightly moisten the brush (or a rag) with water, and gently wipe the mushrooms clean.
