CHAMPLAIN VALLEY MUSHROOMS
MUSHROOM STROGANOFF
Instructions:
1) In a medium saucepan on medium heat, melt the butter. When melted, add the shallots and cook until translucent, about 3 minute
2) Next, add the mushrooms and cook until soft or sweating, 5-7 minutes, adding the balsamic vinegar or wine and garlic cloves as mushrooms are softening. Cook to absorb moisture for 4+ minutes.
