Pickled Rufous Milkcap Mushrooms for Winter

Recipe for marinating and preserving tasty mushrooms for winter. Rufous Milkcap mushrooms grow in our forests, but many mushroom pickers do not collect them, considering them second-rate. Well, I believe there are no second-rate mushrooms, only poorly cooked and poisonous ones. Therefore, today I want to offer you a recipe for pickled Rufous Milkcap mushrooms, which I preserve for future use. In my opinion, in the case of Rufous Milkcap mushrooms, unlike some species of milk-cap mushrooms, it is possible to completely neutralize the bitterness by boiling and soaking in a salt solution.

Instructions

  1. Collect the mushrooms and rinse them in the sink to remove sand. Then boil the Rufous Milkcap mushrooms in lightly salted water for 20 minutes. Change the water and soak them for 24 hours, changing the water every 3–4 hours, until all the bitterness is gone. Taste the mushrooms; when they become bland, you can marinate them. Prepare the marinade (the amount depends on the quantity of mushrooms): per 1 liter of water add 10 black peppercorns, 1 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp salt, 4 bay leaves, 10 cloves, 20 coriander seeds, 5 allspice berries, 100 ml 9% vinegar. First add all the ingredients to the marinade except the vinegar and boil for 20 minutes, then add the vinegar and mushrooms and boil for another 10 minutes. Put the finished pickled Rufous Milkcap mushrooms into prepared jars, pour the marinade over the top, seal and wrap until completely cool. In winter, we eat the mushrooms with pleasure! Enjoy your meal!
