Notes

  • Chop the mushrooms and onions small. Otherwise, the sauce will be too chunky.
  • Use a damp cloth to remove dirt from the mushrooms. Avoid rinsing mushrooms under water to prevent them from getting spongy consistency.
  • Stir the sauce frequently as it begins to thicken. This will create smooth and creamy results.
  • Cook the mushrooms long enough to shrink and soften completely. This will create better flavor and texture.
  • Use a wood or silicone spoon to avoid scratching the bottom of the pot.
