Champignons marinated in mayonnaise - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use sour cream instead of mayonnaise for this recipe?

Yes, sour cream can be used as a lighter alternative to mayonnaise. The marinade will have a tangier flavor, so you may want to adjust the lemon juice and seasoning to taste.

How long can I store the marinated mushrooms in the refrigerator?

Marinated mushrooms can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For best quality, consume them within 48 hours.

Are these marinated mushrooms suitable for a low-carb diet?

Yes, this recipe is naturally low in carbs, making it a great option for low-carb or keto diets. Just ensure the mayonnaise used doesn't contain added sugars.

Can I freeze the marinated mushrooms for later use?

Freezing is not recommended as the mayonnaise-based marinade may separate and become watery when thawed, affecting the texture of the mushrooms.

What are some creative ways to serve these marinated mushrooms?

These mushrooms are versatile! Serve them as an appetizer with toothpicks, atop crackers, in salads, or as a side dish with grilled meats.

Can I use dried dill instead of fresh?

Yes, you can substitute dried dill. Use 1/3 the amount of dried dill compared to fresh, as dried herbs are more concentrated in flavor.

How can I make this recipe vegan?

Replace the mayonnaise with a vegan alternative and ensure all other ingredients are plant-based. The marinade will work similarly with vegan mayo.

What type of mushrooms works best for this recipe?

Small button mushrooms or cremini mushrooms are ideal as they hold up well in marinades and have a mild flavor that absorbs the seasonings beautifully.

Can I marinate the mushrooms for longer than 30 minutes?

Yes, marinating for up to 2 hours will enhance the flavor. However, longer marination may make the mushrooms too soft, especially if they're very fresh.

Is there a way to make this recipe less spicy for sensitive palates?

Simply reduce or omit the black pepper and garlic. The marinade will still be flavorful from the mayonnaise, lemon, and dill.
