This was easy to make and tasted good. The mushrooms had a nice color also. The recipe doesn't indicate what to do with the balsamic vinegar so I just added it with the water. Next time I will add a little less of the balsamic vinegar and more of the mustard as that suits our preferences better.

Lemon juice is the key to this piquant and deeply colored side dish. The lemon sweetens the balsamic vinegar while adding it's own zing. I doubled the recipe using giant sized white mushrooms my husband had purchased (I would have preferred Portabellos). I followed the insructions as directed and served the mushrooms with BBQ grilled sausages, a combination of Italian, Bratwurst and Sicilian. A bit of chopped parsley would accent the dramatic color of the mushrooms.
