Note
For best flavor, let the mushrooms marinate overnight rather than just 8 hours.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The flavors will intensify over time.
You can substitute white mushrooms with cremini or button mushrooms based on preference.
If you prefer a milder heat, reduce the hot pepper sauce to a few dashes or omit it entirely.
