OK Christmas is over and I'm just hanging out with 2 pounds of mushrooms on this snowy afternoon so I'm going to make something yummy. It is a bit time consuming but it's mostly waiting over night. So let's being.
Mushroom Ketchup
2 pounds of mushrooms
2 spoonfuls of salt (I used Tablespoons)
2 bay leaves
1 Tablespoon finely grated horseradish
1 cup chopped onion
Zest of 1 lemon
½ teaspoon Allspice
¼ teaspoon Cloves
A pinch Cayenne pepper
½ cup Apple cider vinegar
Chop up 2 pounds of mushrooms and toss with 2 spoonfuls of salt add the bay leaves. Cover and let sit over night.
In the morning add in 1 tablespoon finely grated horseradish, 1 chopped onion, the Zest of 1 lemon, ½ teaspoon Allspice, ¼ teaspoon Cloves, a pinch of cayenne pepper and a ½ cup Apple cider vinegar.
Bring to a soft boil about 3 to 5 minutes. Simmer for 15 minutes and let cool and the squeeze the pulp through a cloth and bottle the juices.
Dehydrate the mushrooms and pound into a powder. Store for use as a salt.
Pour the ketchup on a steak or use as you would use soy sauce or worcestershire sauce.
