Marinated Mushrooms

CM, I had a recipe very similar to this. The mushrooms were boiled too. Then, they were marinated in another oil and vinegar solution. They were great and I'm sorry I lost the recipe. What is your take on this additional step? (Love your CM's Cooking School!)

This is one of the best recipes for marinated mushrooms that I have had. They don't taste "pickled" but have a nice earthiness to them. They are good cold but I like them even better at room temperature.

These are very easy and my husband loved them. I added the 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar and left out the green onion (only because I didnt have one)I thought they would need to sit for several days to be good, but they were great the first day.I couldnt find small mushrooms, so I pulled off the stems and cut the caps in half. Perfect!
