INSTRUCTIONS
If you can't find fresh tarragon: you can substitute fresh basil or
even parsley. The mushrooms will darken a bit if kept in the
refrigerator overnight: but they will taste even better the second
day. INSTRUCTIONS: Slice off and discard the very bottom of the
mushroom stems if they seem gritty or dried out. Slice the mushrooms
vertically into slices about 1/4 inch thick. If the mushrooms are
very small -- with caps less than 1 inch in diameter ~- cut the
mushrooms vertically into quarters. Toss the mushrooms gently with the
oil: vinegar and tarragon. Season to taste with salt and pepper in a
mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and store in a cool place at
least 1 hour but up to 8 hours before serving. Serves 6 as a side
dish. PER SERVING: 180 calories: 1 g protein: 4 g carbohydrate: 18 g
