Instructions:

1. Prepare the Mushrooms: Start by washing the mushrooms thoroughly and setting them aside, ensuring they’re clean and ready for cooking.

2. Simmer the Flavorful Base: In a saucepan, combine the tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, dry vermouth (or white wine), shallots, minced garlic, coriander seeds, bay leaf, thyme sprig, and mineral water. Allow this aromatic mixture to simmer gently over medium heat for approximately 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and infuse.

3. Add the Mushrooms: After the base has simmered, introduce the button mushrooms and sliced white mushroom into the saucepan. Let them simmer uncovered for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soak up the delicious flavors of the broth.

4. Prepare the Sauce: Once the mushrooms are tender and infused with flavor, carefully remove them from the saucepan and transfer them to a serving dish, arranging them neatly for presentation. Meanwhile, continue simmering the liquid in the saucepan until it reduces to approximately 1 cup, intensifying the flavors.

5. Season and Garnish: As the liquid reduces, remove the bay leaf and thyme sprig from the saucepan. To the concentrated broth, add the freshly squeezed lemon juice, a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity, and season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.

6. Serve with Flair: Pour the seasoned liquid over the mushrooms, ensuring they are coated evenly with the delectable sauce. Finish off this culinary masterpiece by garnishing with a generous sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley, adding a vibrant pop of color and freshness to the dish.

7. Serve Hot or Cold: Indulge in the irresistible flavors of this dish either warm, straight from the stovetop, or chill it in the refrigerator for a refreshing cold option. Whether enjoyed as an appetizer, side dish, or light lunch, these Hot or Cold Mushrooms A La Grecque are sure to delight your taste buds with their rich, Mediterranean-inspired flavors.

Pro Tip: Feel free to experiment with different varieties of mushrooms to suit your preference and availability. Baby Portobellos, Crimini, or Shitake mushrooms all make excellent alternatives to the classic button mushrooms, adding depth and complexity to this versatile dish.
