Marinated Mushrooms

Cooking the mushrooms really gets the marinade and spices in the shrooms. These are always a hit served as an appetizer at a get together.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 lbs fresh white mushrooms
• 1 1⁄2 cups white vinegar or 1 1⁄2 cups wine vinegar
• 1  cup  Italian dressing
• 1  teaspoon oregano (any spice can be substituted, I'd like to try dill next time)

Directions

1. In a non-aluminum saucepan, combine vinegar with 1 1/2 cups water and heat to boiling.
2. Add cleaned mushrooms (clean with damp cloth, not water so they don't absorb the water);.
3. boil 2 minutes.
4. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup reserved cooking liquid.
5. Cool mushrooms for 1 hour.
6. Mix the 1/2 cup reserved liquid with the Italian dressing and seasoning; pour over cooled mushrooms.
7. Add salt and pepper to taste.
8. I prefer them warm but they are also delicious cooled.
