How to Make All Day Mushrooms

  1. Gently wipe 1 pound of cremini mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Remove any excess dirt or debris.
  2. Place the cleaned mushrooms in a large (6-quart or larger) stockpot.
  3. Add 1 cup of chicken broth, 1/2 cup dry white wine, 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and 1 sprig of fresh thyme to the pot with the mushrooms.
  4. Note: The liquid will not fully cover the mushrooms initially.
  5. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to very low. Cover the pot and cook for 4 hours.
  6. Stir gently every 30 minutes to ensure all the mushrooms are evenly coated in the cooking liquid.
  7. After 4 hours, remove the lid and continue cooking over very low heat for an additional 4 hours, stirring occasionally.
  8. The mushrooms will shrink considerably and become richly saturated with the cooking liquid.
  9. Once cooked, carefully remove the mushrooms from the pot using a slotted spoon. Serve immediately in a bowl, and enjoy the fruits of your patience!
