Description

These cold marinated mushrooms are a vibrant, refreshing appetizer that requires no cooking, just patience. The earthy flavor of the mushrooms absorbs the bright acidity of lemon juice and the richness of olive oil, creating a deeply savory profile. Fresh garlic, green onions, and parsley add aromatic complexity and a pleasant crunch. Perfect for serving at parties, potlucks, or as a light starter before a heavier main course, they are best when given time to meld flavors in the refrigerator. Simple, vegan, and utterly delicious.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash and dry mushrooms thoroughly, then slice into 1/8-inch thick slices.
  2. Trim and thinly slice the green onions, including the green tops.
  3. Finely chop the garlic clove.
  4. In a large 1 1/2-quart bowl, combine the sliced mushrooms and lemon juice; toss gently to coat.
  5. Add the olive oil, snipped parsley, salt, pepper, sliced green onions, and chopped garlic to the bowl.
  6. Toss all ingredients together until evenly distributed and coated with the marinade.
  7. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
  8. Just before serving, use a slotted spoon to remove the mushrooms from the excess marinade.
  9. Arrange on a serving platter, sprinkle with paprika, and garnish with additional parsley sprigs if desired.
