Roasted mushrooms?!
Roasted mushrooms?
how do you make perfect roasted mushrooms? i tried once by slicing them, mixing with oil, salt and herbs and roasting in the oven. however they turned out slightly cooked soggy mushrooms, not like the roasted ones you buy in shops or find in sandwiches. what do you do make them taste like real roasted mushrooms?
Answers:
You have to do them at high heat and in a metal pan.
I prefer to do mine on the top of the stove in a cast iron frying pan.
well I made the mistake by washing them (i mean litter ally soaking them) just wipe them off with a damp towel and season them with garlic salt,peeper,slightly pan fry them and place them in the oven for ten min
You want "roasted" or sauteed....Sauteed is done on the stove top...I use a pat of butter whole mushrooms and on a medium to low heat cook my mushrooms with salt/pepper
