Ingredients

  • 10 mushrooms
  • 1 TBSP sea salt

For the marinade:

  • 10 TBSP good olive oil
  • 1 TBSP apple cider vinegar
  • 1 garlic clove grated
  • 1 TBSP lemon zest
  • Pinch sea salt
  • Freshly cracked black pepper
  • A handful of fresh basil roughly chopped if you have fresh oregano add that too!
  • Optional: a pinch of red pepper

Instructions

  • Wash, scrub and drain the mushrooms. Pat them dry with a towel.
  • Place them in a colander atop a big bowl and sprinkle 1 TBSP sea salt. Toss to cover them all in the salt and leave them for about 30 minutes at room temp.
  • Rinse the mushrooms well to get rid of the extra salt and gently squeeze out as much of the water as you can without making a mash out of your mushrooms. Pat them dry with a towel.
  • In a bowl mix the ingredients for the marinade I do this while they are sitting in the salt. – Olive oil, vinegar, garlic, lemon zest, spices. Add the mushrooms and toss to cover them in the marinade.
  • Cover the bowl and put the mushrooms in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy chilled with your favorite raw crackers or wholegrain toasted bread. They make a great addition to salad too !
