Ingredients

2 pounds mixed wild mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, porcini, and portobello
1/2 cup good olive oil
1 cup chopped shallots (4 large)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped garlic (6 cloves)
1 cup chopped flat leaf parsley

Directions

Brush the caps of each mushroom with a clean sponge. Remove and discard the stems. Slice the small mushrooms thickly and cut the large ones in a large dice.

Heat the olive oil in a large (11 - inch) Dutch oven or saucepan. Add the shallots and cook over low heat for 5 minutes, or until the shallots are translucent. Add the butter, mushrooms, salt, and pepper and cook over medium heat for 8 minutes, until they are tender and begin to release their juices, stirring often. Stir in the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes. Toss in the parsley, sprinkle with salt, and serve warm.

Perfect Mushrooms!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Ina's Sauteed Wild Mushrooms are perfect! The recipe calls for a whopping six cloves of garlic which made me a little... nervous, but it turned out to be perfect. The mushrooms had just the right amount of garlic! The other thing that I love about this recipe is that it has so few ingredients. I tried another steakhouse mushrooms recipe in the past and it called for 8 million different ingredients. Ina's recipe uses simple ingredients that I already had around the house. Ina, you've done it again! I love these mushrooms!Read more

Fabulous!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Have made this recipe for "shrooms" a few times since the original airing, and have found extra uses for the leftovers as... well. I do prefer the oyster, baby bellas and button mushrooms vs. the shitake, but that is just my own personal preference. I used dried parsley instead of fresh b/c it iwas what was on hand, and just added a little more. I find this an easy recipe to reduce or increase depending on the amount of people or the meals I am planning the rest of the week. When we were done with our steakhouse meal, we used the leftover steak and shrooms to make some steak subs with the leftovers....since the shallots were already in the shrooms, no need to spend extra time making that to add to it. Mushrooms would work with chicken meals, pasta, or even just a top a burger. Thanks for sharing, Contessa! Would definitely recommend to anyone!Read more

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have never been a huge fan of the barefoot contessa, but this menu grabbed my attention as I was browsing through the... channels. When I heard that she was going back to basics with this dish and making it her own, I had to watch. I decided to add this dish to a meal I had already begun the day before (cornish hen), I decided to run to the supermarket and pick up the ingredients and just add it to my dinner ( i mean how bad could it be? its mushrooms) When we all sat at the dinner table everyone was blown away by the taste of the mushrooms! It was soo delicious you could have eaten them alone! I almost did when I finished the dish and decided to taste it; needles to say it was aewsome. And better yet, I had alot of mushroom left over and decided to use them the next day with angel hair pasta for dinner. Just added a bit more olive oil and stirred in the mushrooms and I had another phenomenal meal in my hands! Read more

Steakhouse Quality
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I love mushrooms and have been trying to find a recipe that semi-tastes like steakhouse ones. My search is over. These... were, hands-down, the best mushrooms I've had. I cut the recipe in half, using 1/2 button and 1/2 cremini. I did not use the parsley (not a fan of it in general). Taking the advice of previous posts, I followed the cooking process exactly. I couldn't have been happier with the results. Thanks Ina!Read more
