Sautéed Mushrooms with Herbs and Sherry

Mushrooms come in a wide array of shapes, sizes and flavor-intensities. Combining different mushroom varieties not only increases the flavor but also gives interest to the dish.  For Sautéed Mushrooms with Herbs and Sherry, we combine at least two varieties, add simple herbal notes and finish with dry sherry to provide a relatively simple but deeply flavorful dish.  Interestingly, while sautéed mushrooms are often served as a first course in Italy, they are relegated to a side dish in the United States.  Either way, you’ll be adding Sautéed Mushrooms with Herbs and Sherry to your culinary repertoire, just be ready for the applause from your guests, especially when paired with Savory Grilled Pork Roast.
