These mushrooms were very nice although they were much better after I added a few splashes of lemon juice while they were cooking. Easy and tasty. Thanks! Read More

I'm game to try anything once and the unusual seasoning in this mushroom recipe caught my eye. It was interesting to try but Hubs and I didn't enjoy this at all. The combination of tarragon and nutmeg tasted off weird and even more weird on mushrooms. Simple salt and pepper would have been better. Read More

I was skeptical about this so I cut the receipe down to two servings to test it out on Ron and I. That was a mistake - Ron was begging for more and I had to part with some of mine!!!! This is a keeper and real easy to make. Read More

I decreased the ingredients by half (decreasing the nutmeg just a bit more). I didn't have tarragon so I used a bit of fennel seeds & a bit of marjaram instead. (My cook's thesaurus says that both marjaram & fennel seeds are good subs for tarragon.) Thsese were very tasty & oddly enough tasted quite a bit like the brandied mushrooms I have made before. I will make them again many times! Read More

We couldn't get enough of these tasty little mushrooms. I made them for Thanksgiving as a side dish for Turkey and they were delicious. I used whole mushrooms instead of slicing which helped save time in the kitchen. They had such a savory flavor. We also serve them with pierogies. This receipe is a keeper! Read More

Delicious! The addition of nutmeg gives the mushrooms a sophisticated taste. Do not leave it out! Loved this and will make many many more times. Served with the filet mignon with a balsamic glaze recipe from this site. Read More
