Mushrooms and more mushrooms.

[cookie1]

We had two large boxes of mushrooms dropped off to us. I think I will be making every mushroom dish on the forum at least once.
I was wondering if anyone had any uses for them that aren't on the forum?  DH has been looking all morning and has found a few extra.
Thanks.

Wow, lucky you, I love mushrooms i amjmust doing some stuffed ones for lunch

What about drying them. Haven't tried it myself though. Just a thought.

[Aussie Brenda]

If you have some really big jars you could marinate some, I see they are large, yes I think drying some might be a good idea. 

[Katiej]

Wow that is a lot of mushrooms.  I have no idea how you could use that many!
I would try AB's suggestion and marinate some.

We have lots of 2 litre jars AB. Will definitely marinate some. Off to find recipes. Thanks.
We have just filled the dryer with the first load to be dried.

That's a lot of mushrooms to get through Cookie, you'll be tied to the kitchen for a while with that lot.

Mushroom sauce

From Oprah.com - When you've bought more mushrooms than you can use up, a simple way to keep them is to dice and sauté them. You can then pack the sautéed dice, which the French call duxelles, in a small freezer bag and dip into it whenever you want a tablespoon or so to add to a sauce, a soup, an omelet, whatever.

Thank you everyone. So far I have done soup, the dryer is full and I have some marinating and for dinner we are having Mich's summer burgers.

Jeninwa and Judy I will do both those things this afternoon.

Cookie, I made the mushroom stroganoff from this 5:2 thread link http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/dieting/recipes/52-diet-fast-low-calorie-1770918 and it was delicious. I made a quarter serve for my lunch and gave my Dd A taste, and promptly had to make up another batch for her and two of her friends.
I also have a recipe for mushroom filo triangles that I often make for parties. I have taken a photo of my handwritten recipe which you may or may not be able to read. I also have some notes about converting it to thermie, but I haven't written them up properly. If you are interested, I can post them

mmmmmm my favourite is mushroom sauce!! I make batches of it, freeze it in ice cube trays and then when we want it for steak take out a few. I MUST get me some more cheap mushrooms

Great buckets of mushrooms cookie. Love them, but not really sure what to do with that many. Will be interesting to see what you come up with.
