Marinated mushrooms

Marinated mushrooms are a versatile and flavorful ingredient used in various recipes to add an acidic and aromatic touch. These are fresh mushrooms that have been preserved in a mixture of vinegar, oil, spices, and herbs, which gives them an intense flavor and a firm yet tender texture.

The origin of marinating mushrooms is very old and is present in many culinary cultures, especially in Mediterranean and Latin American cuisines, where they are used to enhance salads, antipasti, side dishes, and both cold and hot dishes.

Among their properties, marinated mushrooms provide low calorie content, high dietary fiber, and natural antioxidants. They also contain B vitamins and minerals such as potassium and selenium, which contribute to a balanced diet.

In different Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America, marinated mushrooms may have various names, although the most common term is mushrooms in escabeche. Other less frequent synonyms may include pickled mushrooms or simply preserved mushrooms.

This ingredient is ideal for enhancing the flavor of salads, tapas, sandwiches, and vegetarian dishes, providing a unique acidic and textural touch.
