Honey Mushroom Spread for Winter with Green Onion

A great make-ahead appetizer to put up for winter — perfect for any table! For a really good honey mushroom spread, pick firm, fresh mushrooms with intact stems. This recipe, by the way, was passed down to me from my grandmother, who loved preserving mushrooms. It's traditional Russian home cooking, as far as I know.

    Step 7:

  • Start by sorting through the honey mushrooms, then wash them well and boil them until done. Drain the mushrooms and transfer them to a skillet with vegetable oil to fry. Fry until all the moisture has cooked off. Then take them off the heat, let them cool, and run them through a meat grinder. Chop the onion very finely and fry it in the same oil the mushrooms were fried in. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and at the very end add the chopped green onion. Cook for about a minute, pour in the vinegar, fry another minute while stirring, and take it off the heat right away. Mix the mushrooms with the onion and pack them into prepared jars. Separately, heat sunflower oil until very hot and pour it over the mushrooms to cover them completely. Sterilize the jars, then seal them. Store this in a dark, cool place. Use it as a ready appetizer or as a filling for pies. You can even use these mushrooms in soup — just add them right at the end.
