This was great - easy, too. Make more than you need - they keep well to add to leftovers later in the week.

The Fungal Saute deserves 4 stars.

The rapid-fire instructions for making clarified butter with hot tap water did not work for me. Next time I follow
Emeril's recipe to clarify butter.

For years, I've been sauteing mushrooms over low heat. In fact, I did it that way because of the advice of a certain young, good looking upstart of a Food Network chef who usually knows what he's talking about. Not this time. Alton's deceptively simple high heat method, using clarified butter, produced the absolute best sauted mushrooms I've ever made. My life as a cook has change once again, thanks to Alton Brown!

it's a good technique for beginnging a recipte that requires mushrooms, such as the stuffed mushrooms discussed above, as a base for mushroom soup, or as a side for steak (although if serving with steak, the classic preparation is to saute them either whole or halved, instead of sliced. Oh, and brandy or sherry works well too.

These recipes were excellent, after I made the mushroom saute recipe, I used this recipe for Stuffed Mushrooms. They were so good that your mouth watered as you ate them, we could have made a meal out of them. I didn't have Cognac so I used Marsala wine and used pecorino cheese instead of parmesan, etiher would be excellent. Linda, El Dorado Hills, California

Alton:

Finally, a chef who washes mushrooms. I would not use a mushroom unless I washed it. I so enjoyed your technique of preparing the mushrooms, I used it today to make mushroom soup. I can't wait to try the stuffed mushrooms. I have just started to watch your show, and am amazed at how much I have learned from you. You are going to be my #1 guy.
