GROWER SPOTLIGHT

River Valley Ranch

Owned and Operated by Eric Rose, River Valley Ranch is committed to bringing you the best of the farm, from their homegrown mushrooms and vegetables, to their hand-crafted small-batch foods.

Sautéed Cremini Mushrooms

Ingredients:

• 1 pound of Cremini (baby bella) mushrooms
• 2 tablespoons of butter (vegan as desired)
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil
• 2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons of fresh thyme (other fresh herbs work well here as well!)(Optional)
• Optional squeeze of lemon juice as desired

Instructions:

1. Start by thoroughly rinsing the mushrooms under water. Pat dry
   and then cut into thin slices (about ¼ inch thick).
   
2. In a large skillet, combine the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once the butter is fully melted, add in the sliced mushrooms with a good pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes. Around this time, you’ll end up with a decent bit of excess moisture in the pan from the mushrooms and this is okay.
   
3. Add in the garlic and herbs (optional), stir, and cook for an additional 3-4 more minutes. Most of the moisture from the mushrooms should have evaporated but if not, you can drain it off. Garnish with additional herbs (optional), a squeeze of lemon juice, and ENJOY!
