Notes
- Avoid submerging the mushrooms in water to wash them, they will absorb the liquid, which can make them soggy. The best way to clean mushrooms is to wipe them clean with a damp paper towel. You can also give them a quick rinse, just make sure to dry them very well.
- To make this recipe vegan, replace the butter with additional extra virgin olive oil. Use a dairy-free parmesan style cheese.
- To make this recipe gluten free, use gluten free spaghetti noodles and replace the soy sauce with tamari, a gluten free soy sauce.
