I have to say there is no good way to take a picture of marinated mushrooms so I apologize for the picture!
If you are from anywhere in New England you know about warrens lobster house in southern maine. They have been open for over 78 years! Sadly they will be closing their current location right on the water. It’s unsure if they will be re opening in another location.
Warren’s is know for the fresh seafood and their AMAZING salad bar. I love the salad bar it has everything imaginable including these marinated mushrooms.
We stopped by Warren’s a few weeks ago to grab not only lunch but a small cookbook that they publish that has many of their famous dishes including the mushrooms and their pumpkin bread that has a cult following!
I made these for our Thanksgiving and it was a hit! My Dad along with Jim loved them. I don’t care for mushrooms but I loved that it was a make ahead recipe! These would also be great with a charcuterie board.
Each year Warren’s goes through 6 tons of these mushrooms!
Makes 4-6 portions
INGREDIENTS
1 pound of medium sized mushrooms
3/4 Tablespoon of salt
1 Tablespoon of oregano
3/4 cup oil
3/4 cup red wine vinegar
3/4 Tablespoon black pepper
1 Tablespoon of sugar
Juice of one fresh lemon
DIRECTIONS
Place all of the ingredients into a heavy, thick bottommed pan.
Stir all ingredients together gently so all the spices are dispersed evenly.
Bring to a simmer over medium high heat and maintain a simmer for 12-15 minutes. Stir frequently and be gentle so you don’t break up the mushrooms.
When the mushrooms are tender to the touch they are finished cooking.
Remove from heat and chill for at least 12 hours.
Enjoy!
