Easy

Guess what? I brought you the recipe for the quickest, most delicious marinated mushrooms! They are truly amazing, yet require almost zero effort. They come together super fast and honestly don't last long in the fridge.

I actually made a batch big enough for 4–5 people, and ended up eating most of it myself. I’m a total mushroom enthusiast, of course, but still—that’s a pretty good sign, right? 😉

The best part about these little gems is that you can serve them the same day you make them, or prep them a couple of days in advance. It’s entirely up to you.

Ingredient Notes:

Mushrooms. The most basic option is button mushrooms. They have a good texture, a light sweet flavor (which is not present in more mature mushrooms), and look great whole.
According to this recipe, you can marinate oyster mushrooms. Here, too, it is better to choose ones that are not the largest.
Honey. For this recipe, it is better to use honey with a mild flavor, such as linden or acacia honey. Bright honeys, such as buckwheat or chestnut, will give too strong a flavor.
You can use either liquid or crystallized honey because you’ll be heating it for the marinade.
Vinegar. You can use any mild, light vinegar here, such as apple cider vinegar, white wine vinegar, or rice vinegar. Spirit vinegar with 9% acidity will be too pungent; save it for other uses.
Garlic. You have options here, too. Fresh garlic will give a more pronounced, spicy flavor, while dry, granulated garlic will be milder and more delicate. If you are substituting, use 1/2 teaspoon.
Chiles. If you don’t have fresh chili peppers, you can use chili flakes. You can adjust the spiciness to your taste by increasing or decreasing the amount of pepper. According to the recipe, the mushrooms will have a moderate spiciness.
Thyme. Yes, you can use dried thyme instead of fresh. One-quarter teaspoon will suffice.

Let’s start cooking!

Sauté the mushrooms in a frying pan over high heat with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil for 3 to 5 minutes.

Turn off the heat.

Mix the remaining ingredients for the marinade, mincing the garlic and pepper finely.

Place the saucepan back on the stove and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and pour the mixture into the saucepan with the mushrooms. Cover with a lid and refrigerate until completely cooled.

Add the chopped parsley leaves to the cold mushrooms and stir.

Serve as an appetizer.

Enjoy!
