Polish Marinated Mushroom Recipe

Ingredients:

2 kg of small mushroom caps

2 cups of water

2 cups of vinegar (10%)

2 teaspoons of salt

4 teaspoons of sugar

2 teaspoons of allspice

2 teaspoons of black pepper

5 bay leaves

0.5 kg of sugar

0.1 kg of salt


Preparation method:

Bigger cups cut into halves or quarters, smaller leave uncut. Pour vinegar and water into a pan, add all spices and cover with a lid, bring to boil. Leave to cool. Clean your mushroom, rinse thoroughly. Boil 2 liters of water in a big pan, place your mushroom and simmer for 30 minutes on low heat. Strain, place in jars and when they cool off, cover with marinade. Place your spices evenly in jars. Then cover your jarred mushroom with lids, close well and store in cool, dry place.

how long do they keep for and do you need to keep them in the fridge or just a cupboard will do?

I suggest at least a couple of months. Yes, store in cool place - the fridge would be best.

What kind of mushrooms are best? Can you mix types?
