Love mushroom and want a new great salad for the Shabbos table?
I’ve been making her mushroom salad forever now, but now I’m in my “twist” zone. Everything needs a twist these days – otherwise I’ll just be another Nitra cookbook. (Who remembers that? The one without pictures with a spiral binding. I think my mother used that every Pesach when she tried getting the Pesachdik lokshon right.) Here’s the version I’m making now.
- 2 leeks, finely diced
- 6 garlic cloves , finely diced
- 2 celery stalks, finely diced
- 1 plum tomato, finely diced
- 1 jalapeno pepper, finely diced (optional)
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 2 packs of button mushrooms, sliced
- 5 portobello mushrooms, peeled and sliced
- Few drops soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1.5 tsp salt
- Some freshly ground black pepper
- Heat olive oil in a saute pan. Add leeks, garlic, celery, and tomato, and saute until soft.
- Add all mushrooms, soy sauce, tomato paste, salt and pepper. Cook over low heat for 20 minutes. Once cool, top with fresh parsley and mix well.
- Cook for 20 minutes on low flame.
- Once cooled, chop up a full bunch of fresh parsley and mix well.
You’ll enjoy the leftovers of this one until Tuesday!
Note from BCP – you can use the jalapeño and remove the seeds. The seeds are what makes it spicier…

Please add fresh parsley to the ingredient list, because I did my shopping already and only see that now as I’m making it and I didn’t buy any:( think it will be ok without it? Can I use dried parsley flakes instead or omit completely?
