  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Buying mushrooms in the store or collecting them yourself, you need to be completely sure that these are really honey mushrooms, not false mushrooms. Mushrooms are thoroughly washed, garbage and leaves are removed. For caviar, you can use mushrooms of any size, caps or legs or together, then the legs need to be cut off, leaving a length of no more than two or three centimeters.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Put the mushrooms in an enameled saucepan and boil in salted water for 40 minutes from the moment it boils. Caviar can be made not only from fresh, but also frozen and even pickled mushrooms. Therefore, if you suddenly want mushroom caviar, and there are no fresh mushrooms at hand, you can use any available ones.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Drain the water from the pan, throw the honeydew into a colander so that the broth completely drains, let them cool down a little and grind with a blender or pass through a meat grinder. If you want the caviar to turn out to be more coarse and crispy, then it is better to use a meat grinder, in a blender the mushroom mass turns out to be more homogeneous in consistency.

    Fry the mixture over low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally so that the mushrooms do not burn to the bottom of the pan. Then add table vinegar, mix the mass, keep on fire for about 5 more minutes. Turn off the fire.
