Ingredients
Scale
- 1 8 oz package of sliced mushrooms, rinsed and dried well

- 3 TBS butter
- small pinch of white sugar, optional
Instructions
- In a large, wide-bottom saute pan, melt the butter on medium-low heat.
- Add the onions and mushrooms, spreading them out in the pan as best as you can. Cook until softened, tossing occasionally, then sprinkle on the pinch of sugar if using.

- Onions and mushrooms will be done when they've achieved a nice dark color and aroma!
Notes
Recommended Equipment
You don't have to add the additional sugar if you don't want - the caramelization process will bring out the natural sweetness.
