How to make a delicious champignon sauce?

The main rule for preparing the sauce is the heat treatment of the mushrooms themselves; you should not overcook them or dry them out in a frying pan, however, excess moisture will make the dish watery, which will also affect the final taste characteristics. Mushroom champignon sauce should be rich, thick and satisfying.

To do this, you can change the ingredients, for example, cream for sour cream, add flour or, conversely, dilute with milk. There is a recipe with cheese for mushroom sauce; it can replace flour, while the champignon sauce itself will not suffer in any way, but the cheese aroma will add a milky piquancy.

How to cook “Mushrooms with cheese sauce”

Grate the cheese using a grater with medium-sized holes.

Fry mushrooms in 2 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil until it has a characteristic golden color and a magical aroma, then add sour cream and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly. The liquid contained in the sour cream should evaporate during this time.

Add the cheese, cook for literally a few minutes, as soon as it completely melts and becomes viscous, enveloping each mushroom, the dish can be considered ready.

Transfer the mushrooms with cheese sauce to a small plate, garnish with herbs and immediately bring to the table. I recommend preparing this dish immediately before serving so that the cheese remains soft and chewy.

Delicious champignon sauce with cream

A very satisfying recipe - mushroom sauce from champignons - becomes thicker and tastier when cooked with cream, you don’t have to use butter. The percentage of fat in the cream will not affect the sauce, but will only emphasize the pleasant taste of the champignons. From the products we will need:

• butter – 20-30 g for frying mushrooms;
• fresh mushrooms – 200-500 g;
• garlic – 1-3 cloves (optional);
• grated lemon zest - 1 teaspoon;
• cream – 200-300 g;
• ground pepper, nutmeg, salt - to taste.

Let's start cooking:

1. Wash fresh mushrooms under the tap, cut off the ends of the stems, remove stains and dirt, and dry. Cut into slices, the size depends on your preference.
2. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the mushrooms and fry until the excess moisture evaporates.
3. Take a lemon, wash it well and dry it. We grate the zest on a fine grater, all over the lemon, not reaching the pulp, only the yellow part. When a lemon is “stripped” it is not a death sentence; it can be used further, but the storage method is a little different. Cut it into slices, sprinkle with sugar, put it in a container with a lid and put it in the refrigerator; the shelf life in this form is unlimited.
4. When the mushrooms are stewed, pour the cream into the frying pan, add salt, pepper, sprinkle with nutmeg and lemon zest, mix well and simmer for another 5-7 minutes.
5. Garlic should be added at the very end, as it does not like prolonged heat treatment.

The mushroom sauce is ready, add it to chops, fish or poultry, serve with pasta or buckwheat; the aroma of champignons combined with cream will pleasantly and deliciously surprise you.

What mushrooms are suitable

The main ingredient of the delicate cheese sauce is mushrooms. They impart an amazing aroma, amazing taste and a nice texture with soft bites. Of course, it is important what mushrooms are used in the recipe; the taste, aroma and quality of the prepared product depend on this.

Champignons are the most common and inexpensive, they can be used quite successfully. It is better not to take very large ones, and preferably brown ones, as this variety is much more aromatic.

Wild mushrooms are an ideal choice. They can be either fresh, if it’s mushroom season, or frozen - they will also work out amazingly. If you have dried mushrooms at home, that's great - they enhance the flavor really well, and also add them if you're using button mushrooms. However, pickled or salted mushrooms are not suitable.
