Yield
Makes about 3 cups
Ingredients
2 cups dry white wine
1 teaspoon whole coriander seeds
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1 lb small (1-inch) white or cremini mushrooms, trimmed
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Preparation
Boil wine, spices, salt, bay leaf, and garlic in a deep 10-inch heavy skillet 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and oil, then reduce heat and gently simmer, uncovered, until mushrooms are barely tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool mushrooms in liquid, uncovered. Chill, covered, at least 8 hours for flavors to meld. Discard bay leaf and whole spices. Serve at room temperature.
