Chef’s Note
When purchasing fresh mushrooms, it’s important to clean them up, as they’ll likely have dirt stuck to them. Rinse under cool water, and use a paper towel or kitchen towel to wipe them clean. Then lay in a single layer to let them completely dry before starting the recipe.

Can this be made ahead of time?
This side is best served fresh, but it can be made ahead up to 2 days in advance. When reheating, add a small splash of cream if the sauce has become too thick.
How to Store
- Store: Wait for the dish to cool to room temperature. Transfer the mushrooms to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: To reheat, pour them into a large skillet and place them over medium-low heat. Stir as you cook until the mushrooms and sauce are warmed through. Add a splash of cream if needed.
- Freeze: You can also freeze for up to 3 months. However, freezing and thawing the cream-based sauce may alter the texture, so keep that in mind when you’re picking storage methods.
Cooking Tips & Tricks
Follow these quick, easy hints to make a rich, creamy, flavorful mushroom recipe!
- Pick good mushrooms
- When selecting for this recipe, make sure you’re getting plump, fresh and earthy smelling mushrooms. They come in a few different colors, including yellow, orange, and white. Look for little to no discoloration, and a dry texture. You don’t want any that are slimy, dry and shriveled, or ones with large dark soft spots.
- Let the wine reduce
- As you deglaze the pan, it’s important to let the cooking liquid reduce. This results in a thicker, more flavorful sauce.
