Description

These hot pickled mushrooms offer a vibrant burst of flavor with a perfect balance of tangy vinegar, sweet apple juice, and a gentle heat from dried red peppers. The earthy richness of button mushrooms is elevated by aromatic garlic and bay leaves, creating a complex, savory profile. Ideal for preserving the harvest or adding an unexpected punch to everyday meals, these pickles hold up beautifully in jars for months. Serve them alongside cheese boards, toss into grain salads, or use as a topping for burgers and sandwiches. Their crisp texture and robust flavor make them a versatile pantry staple that brings gourmet appeal to simple dishes.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash mushrooms thoroughly and slice off and discard the stem ends.
  2. Cut mushrooms into halves, quartering larger ones for uniform size.
  3. Prepare hot, clean jars by filling them halfway with the prepared mushrooms.
  4. Distribute the sliced garlic, dried red peppers, peppercorns, and broken bay leaves evenly among the jars, adding about one-third of each ingredient to each jar.
  5. Fill the jars to within 1 inch of the top with the remaining mushrooms.
  6. In a saucepan, combine the distilled vinegar, water, apple juice, and salt.
  7. Bring the liquid mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  8. Pour the boiling liquid over the mushrooms in the jars, adding more hot water if needed to cover completely, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
  9. Wipe jar rims, cap with hot lids, and process in a boiling water bath for 20 minutes after the water returns to a boil.
  10. Alternatively, process in a pressure cooker at 10 pounds pressure for 20 minutes.
