Method

Preparation of Shiitake Mushrooms

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Rinse the shiitake mushrooms under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cleaned shiitake mushrooms and minced garlic cloves. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft and browned.

  3. 3

    Add Thyme

    Stir in the fresh thyme leaves and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Pickling Process

  1. 4

    Prepare the Pickling Liquid

    In a small saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, salt, bay leaves, and black peppercorns. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

  2. 5

    Pickle the Mushrooms

    Place the sautéed shiitake mushrooms into a clean jar and pour the pickling liquid over them. Make sure the mushrooms are fully submerged. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.

Make the Mushroom Pate

  1. 6

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the pickled shiitake mushrooms, cream cheese, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 7

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the pate and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lemon juice to your preference.
