Ingredients
- 340 grams mushroom mixed, left whole and rinsed in cold water
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ⅛ tsp pepper
- 2 tsp butter unsalted, cut into little pieces
- 1 tsp thyme fresh
- 1 tsp rosemary fresh
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp parsley chopped, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400˚F.

- Using the lower half of the parchment paper, place the mushrooms down in a circle .340 grams mushroom
- Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and herbs. Distribute the butter pieces evenly around the mushrooms. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the mushrooms.⅛ tsp salt, ⅛ tsp pepper, 2 tsp butter, 1 tsp thyme, 1 tsp rosemary, 1 tsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp parsley
- Fold the upper half of the parchment paper over the mushrooms (you should leave enough space around the food to allow the air to expand and circulate). Starting from the upper right corner, make a fold in the parchment, continue folding along the half moon with overlapping folds. You should be making very tight, closely overlapping little folds starting from one corner and work your way around, towards the opposite corner. Fold the last fold over itself, staple the last fold to itself, and then staple a few of the folds along the parchment paper.
- Place the package on a baking tray and bake for 20-30
- Cut the package open and either slide the contents onto a plate or serve directly from the open parchment (you can cut away the top flap and staples).
Cooking Tips
- Mushroom selection: Using a variety of mushrooms can enhance the flavor and texture of the dish.
- Herb choices: Fresh herbs like thyme and rosemary add depth; however, dried herbs can be a convenient alternative.
- Parchment paper folding: Ensure the parchment paper is sealed well to keep the steam in for even cooking.
