    How to Make Creamy Herbed Mushrooms à la Crème

    1. Heat the Skillet

    Begin by heating a skillet over high heat until it is very hot. This step is crucial because a hot skillet ensures that the mushrooms will sauté properly, giving them a beautiful brown color and enhancing their flavor.

    2. Add Olive Oil

    Once the skillet is hot, add enough olive oil to coat the pan.

    3. Sauté Mushrooms

    Quickly add your mushrooms and a pinch of salt. The salt will help draw out moisture from the mushrooms. If the mushrooms release too much liquid, tip off the excess to prevent them from simmering instead of sautéing. This will help the mushrooms to brown nicely.

    4. Adjust Heat and Oil

    If using domestic mushrooms, you may need to lower the heat slightly and add a bit more olive oil to keep them from drying out. Continue to sauté the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until they are brown and tender to the bite.

    5. Combine Mushrooms

    If you are using a variety of mushrooms, sauté each type separately to ensure even cooking, then combine them.

    6. Add Cream and Herbs

    For a creamy touch, you can add a splash of cream or a dollop of crème fraîche at this stage, stirring until it is just hot. If you prefer, you can also add some chopped thyme, minced garlic, or a sprinkle of gremolata for added flavor. Sauté these additional ingredients gently for a moment to release their aromas and blend their flavors with the mushrooms.

    7. Serve

    Serve hot, and enjoy the rich, earthy flavors of your creamy herbed mushrooms.
