If mushrooms look dry while cooking, add a pinch of salt to bring out a little moisture but not too much.<br /><br />It's usually not a problem to add extra stock. Good call on the extra Marsala. The only other thing that you might need to adjust is salt and pepper. Sounds like it was a big hit, though, so as you see, the recipe can just be a guideline.

Everybody loved it, especially Laurel. She is a sauce girl through and through.<br /><br />I made maybe 3 modifications. First, I used shallots because I bought those before reading the recipe and did not have onions. I think it was good. Also, I was not careful on the measurement of the stock and think I used a bit much. With 5 minutes left simmering, I added about two shots more marsala to up the flavor. That worked. <br /><br />I really wanted porcinis but they were not in season and went with small, fresh shitakes. I think I cooked the mushrooms for about 15 before I thought they were brown on a medium flame. Does that sound about right? I thought maybe they should go longer, but most of the liquid was gone and I didn´t want to kill them. <br /><br />I browned some chicken breasts and thighs in the pan first, then put them in the oven to finish. I cooked the mushroom marsala in the same pan to capture some of that flavor too. Really nice. Good recipe!Clydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10846464446853692435noreply@blogger.com
