I made this recipe last night for our families Christmas Eve Dinner...Holy Crap they are good!!!! I wanted to literally drink the sauce this morning :drool: :lol:

It does seem long that they need to cook for 9 hours....but they are worth it.

I started mine last night about 5:30 or so.(it says they will keep in the fridge for several days so I figured I'd get a head start on things) Cooked them covered for 6 hours as the directions stated...but I turned them off went to bed, then this morning when I woke up I reheated them to a simmer and cooked uncovered for another 3 hours. My house smelled so good this morning I hated to leave for work.

Also I did not need to add the salt the sauce was perfectly seasoned.

Burgundy Mushrooms:

Ingredients
■4 pounds White Button Mushrooms
■2 sticks Butter
■1-1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
■1 liter Burgundy Wine (other Reds Will Work) I used Merlot
■1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
■2 cups Boiling Water
■4 whole Chicken Bouillon Cubes
■4 whole Beef Bouillon Cubes
■1 teaspoon Dill Seed
■5 cloves Garlic, Peeled
■2 teaspoons Salt
Preparation Instructions
Thoroughly wash the mushrooms and throw them into a large stockpot. Add all the remaining ingredients except the salt. Stir to combine.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for six hours.

Remove the lid, then continue cooking, uncovered, for three hours.

Add salt to taste at the end if desired. The mushrooms will be very dark in color. Simmer until needed. Server straight from the pot or in a serving bowl. Dip crusty bread in the juice---yum!

Mushrooms keep for days in the fridge. You'll love 'em!

Sounds good and I really like mushrooms but 9 hours? Seems like a long time to cook a little mushroom....

Did you leave them covered on the stove overnight or did you put them in the fridge?

I don't want to give my family food poisoning. :angel:

triple the heat and cut the cooking time down to 1/3. she can have them done in three hours.

P.S.
For those of you that don't cook, do not really attempt my suggestion.

You mean if the recipe calls for 350 degree oven for 2 hours, you can cook it on 700 degrees for 1 hour?

You know, those mushrooms look very much like the ones at the Bon Buffet. Very tasty, but not sure there's any wine in them.

Maybe it would be easier to ask them to make an order for take out?
