Preparation

Step 1

Wipe the caps and stems carefully with a damp cloth. Discard any mushrooms that are at all buggy. Only very perfect young or button mushrooms are suitable for this recipe.

Put the vinegar and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Submerge the mushrooms and blanch them for 4 minutes, then remove them with a slotted spoon and pack them tightly into a 1-quart jar. Fill the jar to the top with olive oil of good quality, add a couple of bay leaves and the peppercorns.

Place the jar in a pressure canner and cook for 20 minutes at 240 to 250 degrees. When the jar has cooled down, check the seal and store in a cool place.

This recipe yields 1 quart.
