A delightful and easy-to-make appetizer featuring mushrooms marinated with garlic, herbs, and olive oil.
Combine the vinegar, water, and salt in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
Ensure the salt is fully dissolved for a balanced marinade.
Clean the mushrooms and trim the stems if necessary. Cut larger mushrooms into halves or quarters.
Use a damp cloth to clean the mushrooms to avoid them absorbing too much water.
Add the mushrooms to the boiling marinade and cook for 5 minutes.
Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Drain the mushrooms and let them cool slightly.
Gently press the mushrooms to remove excess liquid for better absorption of the marinade.
Place the mushrooms in a glass jar, add the garlic, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, and olive oil. Mix well.
Ensure the mushrooms are fully coated with the marinade for maximum flavor.
Refrigerate the jar for at least 2 hours before serving.
For the best flavor, let the mushrooms marinate overnight.
Serve the marinated mushrooms as an appetizer or side dish.
Garnish with additional fresh parsley for a vibrant presentation.
