Directions

1

Mushrooms contain almost as much nutrition as meat. The simplest way of cooking mushrooms is the best. Sherry and madeira are sometimes used with them for flavoring, but to many their flavor, alone, is far preferable. They decay quickly and should not be used unless fresh. Use silver knife for peeling. Wash them, remove the stem and peel the caps. The stems can be boiled separately and the water used to flavor sauces or soups.

2

Saute Mushrooms. — Cut or break the caps in pieces, put them in a sauce pan or chafing dish with some butter. Let cook in the butter for ten minutes. Season with salt and pepper and a little sherry if you like. Serve on toast.
