Marinated Spicy Button Mushrooms

With damp paper towels wipe each mushroom cap clean. I like to keep my button mushrooms whole. If you prefer, you can cut them in half or quarters. Put mushrooms into a large mixing bowl. Add balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, peppercorns, basil, green onions and hot sauce and stir well.

In several sterilized mason jars, divide marinated mushrooms and put sterilized lids/rings on. I place them in the refrigerator to keep cold until I’m ready to use them in a recipe.

Note: Some people choose to place the sterilized filled jars on a pantry shelf. If you choose this method to store be sure to process the mushrooms using safe canning sterilizing procedures.
