Catsup

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Collect mushrooms on a dry day; avoid those gathered after rain.

  2. Cut off the stalk ends and discard any worm-eaten or decayed parts.

  3. Slice the mushrooms into small pieces.

  4. Mix the mushrooms with a smaller amount of coarse sea salt than usual to draw out the juice.

  5. Ensure all utensils and bottles are clean and dry before use.
