Ingredients
- As many good firm St George mushrooms as you can find (keep the less firm ones for a simple fry up in butter)
- 1 unit Vinegar
- 2 units of water
- Salt
- Sugar
- Onions
- Garlic
To do
- 1) Cut the mushrooms into smaller bits and rinse in cold water
- 2) In a small pot put water and vinager, salt and sugar untill you like the taste- it can be a bit on a strong side now as the mushrooms will let in more water.
- 3) Add mushrooms into the pot and bring to boil, simmer for 5 min.
- 4) Chop up a little bit of inion- but at the bottom of sterilized jar
- 5) Retaste the liquid – if it still tastes good, start scooping the mushrooms with the liquid into your jar. Otherwise add salt or sugar (sweetener instead of sugar add a better taste for me) More mushrooms less liquid.
- Close the lid and leave to cool.
- These are good to eat after a few days but will also last a long time.
Lovely health meal on its own as very rich in flavour or as an acompaniment to main dish.
