1 tablespoon lemon juice
1⁄4 lemon pepper
1⁄4 teaspoon white pepper
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1⁄2 teaspoon dried mixed herbs

Serve as a side dish, on baked potato, on chicken schnitzels, on steak, in burgers, on fries etc.



Mushrooms have a distinctive flavor of their own that can be brought out with simple additions such as butter or olive oil. Mushrooms contain a lot of water, so they'll shrink considerably during cooking. Also be aware that they soak up fat readily, so always use quality butter or oil for cooking. Roast mushrooms to bring out their natural sweetness. Coat them in oil and roast in the oven at 400 degrees until well browned. Bread mushrooms as you would chicken and fry them in hot oil. Make sure you use a high quality oil suitable for frying. Stir fry sliced mushrooms with soy sauce and oil for a simple dish.  Grill mushrooms in the summertime. Simply place the mushrooms directly on the grill pan and cook until browned. Experiment with marinades for extra flavor. Saute them in a pan. This is one of the most common methods. Start with plenty of hot oil or butter and saute until browned.


This is a very simple and easy recipe you can use this sauce with various dishes you want. As we know that mushrooms are good for health as well it produce vitamin D and iron. they are low in calories 
including vitamin B and minerals such as selenium, copper and potassium, making them a nutritious addition to your diet.This article addresses how to find mushrooms and make nutritious and wonderful dishes with them.

Sauces add flavor to a lot of our favorite meals. Take for example, spaghetti, burgers, and salads. Spaghetti would just be a boring, bland mess of noodles without a zesty marinara sauce coating every strand. Burgers, no matter how juicy and meaty they are, need that extra pow! to make it really stand out, whether it is with mayo, ketchup, or pesto. And a salad without a vinaigrette is just a bowl of raw vegetables.
