How to cook it

  1. Slice off the bottom of the mushrooms, then cut into slices. The bottoms are likely dirty: cut that part right off!
  2. Cook 2 minutes over medium heat. We like using a mix of olive oil and butter to cook in, but you can use all olive oil for dairy-free and vegan.
  3. Flip and cook 1 to 2 more minutes, then add seasonings. Once the mushrooms are browned on both sides, we add a little garlic powder, soy sauce and a pinch of salt. Taste and add more salt if desired!
