Cooking Notes

Joan

Test-driving this recipe as possible Veg-Thanksgiving main course, I found it absolutely delicious with a couple of changes per other commenters. Sub dry sherry for the white wine. To make it saucier, add a bit more broth and adjust mustard, soy, creme fraiche accordingly. Also, I sprinkled freshly ground nutmeg with the creme fraiche in the firm belief that mushrooms and nutmeg are a marriage made in heaven.

JFox

Doubled the garlic, and doubled the cooking time for the mushrooms (lots of liquid to cook off). Family liked it, but it needs more creamy sauce ratio to the mushrooms.

beverly

Read through recipe and most of notes. Made the adjustments that were most suggested. Sherry instead of white wine, shrooms in batches for more caramelization. Sautéed onions and garlic then added back the cooked mushrooms. 1 tsp butter and flour. Cook for a few minutes, then added rest of ingredients. Served over brown rice, garnished with chives. Steamed green beans on the side.So GOOD!Next time over mashed potatoes.

4.25/5. Would consider cooking mushrooms in batches to get more caramelized, could be user error in cooking. Pan appeared over crowded with onions. After deglazing, added 1 tbsp butter and flour to make a roux. Per other recommendations of sauce being watery… would definitely do again. Served over mashed potatoes. 10/10 would recommend for an easy meatless meal.

This was flavorful but I felt the sauce was thin and watery. I may add flour next time or something to thicken it.

The Dude

I used mushroom stock, not veggie, as I wanted to maximize the mushroom flavor in the dish. Either use a quality store bought stock or make your own from dried porcinis (even better).

The cooking times are a lie! 8-10 minutes not only to cook off the water from a pound and a half of mushrooms but also caramelize too!! Not likely, you’re looking at least at 30 minutes if you’re lucky and boy I was not lucky. I spent at least 20 minutes prepping alone and now here I am almost an hour later and the water still isn’t cooked off the mushrooms! I’ll let you know if they ever caramelize.And step two? Like I need to deglaze… I’ve got a soup of mushroom water here.

Hmm. I'd sub sherry for white wine, and either add cream cheese or sub it for the sour cream.But serving it over mashed potatoes is genius, I'll definitely do that next time.

Kateri

This was fabulous on a chilly autumn evening. I made it plant-based by using cashew cream, and lower sodium by skipping the slat and using 1/3 of the soy sauce. I was a bit generous with the wine and really let the mushrooms, garlic and onion caramelise. Lots of fresh thyme. A tiny spritz of lemon juice to brighten. Seriously delicious.

Matt

It was delicious, but thicker than I expected after adding sour cream. I would add a bit more broth or cook it down less next time. Served over polenta which was a great alternative to the other suggestions.

HBell

Roasting the mushrooms in convection oven concentrates the mushroom flavors and caramelizes beautifully. Takes about 30 minutes. Time to prepare a nice creamy sauce and mashed potatoes. Stir the mushrooms into sauce at the last minute and top with minced parsley.

Erica H

This was delicious, but definitely cook the mushrooms longer to cook the liquid off. The sauce is a little more watery than expected, but still full of flavor. It mixes really well with mashed potatoes. If serving over noodles, I would recommend adding a roux or cornstarch to thicken the sauce so it sticks better. I used a Sauvignon Blanc for the white wine.

Nancy

This was delicious. Made 1.5x sauce (except wine) and did a roux with 1Tbs each butter and flour after deglazing pan, per others' comments. With pre-sliced mushrooms and my 12" cast iron skillet, this was easy and quick. Served over noodles.

Geri

Great recipe. I added blended silken tofu in lieu of the sour cream and it was top tier

Mary

I am going to serve this over soft polenta. Yum.

JJD

Made as written twice, once with mashed potatoes and once with polenta. Both 5 stars. When I pass the mushrooms at the store I pause and consider changing my menu plans to include this.

Lara

I followed the recipe and it turned out absolutely delicious! I used brown button mushrooms that I had for a few days already so they were dryer and produced less liquid so I did not have a runny sauce.

Amy

Absolutely delicious. I doubled the garlic and served over roasted sweet potatoes. Thank you!

stuff

Used a tablespoon of butter and flour after deglazing and it thickened it up nicely. Great flavor with a little smoked paprika.

SB

This recipe was fabulous! The ingredients were a revelation over my prior stroganoff recipe with its Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and sherry. I thought the flavors were amazing and so did my boyfriend. But with regard to other comments, I cook to get the results I need. I don't follow cooking times or amounts, just estimate volume according to appearance and taste and same with caramelizing. I cook until the mushrooms look the way I want. If the broth is thin, add thickener or cook off the liquid.

Rrose Selavy

Read other suggestions here which made a beautiful result over mashed potatoes. I started with about 1/3 of the mushrooms then just kept adding as they cooked down, no need to remove the first ones from the pan. Had sake on hand instead of wine, perfectly fine. I was shy with the Dijon, but might add more next time. Used dry mushrooms in addition to fresh and used the soaking liquid in place of veg stock. Did a quick roux in the pan with a little butter and flour, which was a good suggestion.

Erica Aitken

This was absolutely delicious. I used button mushrooms, shiitake, and oyster, all kinds that were "blocky" enough to stay solid.The only change I made was to use vegan sour cream and definitely added more paprika.

Joel

Definitely sauté mushrooms in two or three batches, preferably in cast iron. Otherwise it’s not possible to get browning. Soy sauce was a bit much. Cremini or white mushrooms over oysters for flavor.

Amber

Found making a roux to thicken the sauce pretty essential and a great tip from others! Definitely will be making this again!

Jeff

Made this exactly per recipe last night, with mashed potatoes as the base...was wonderful and family loved it :)

Greg

Loved it. Like others, next time I’ll make a bit more sauce.

Peter

They forgot to mention gnocchi - freshly crisped in a little olive oil - as something to serve this delicious stroganoff.

PanPan

Great recipe. I used a few more onions, adjusted the other ingredients accordingly. It was perfect over mashed potatoes.

Dave

I served this with egg noodles. Maybe the texture would have worked better over riced potatoes. I used oyster, shiitake and button in equal parts. Although it was eaten, I don’t think I’d make again. Just not as interesting as its meat cousin.

Don

I would serve this over polenta.

Does sour cream make sauce thick? ›

Why does my stroganoff taste sour? ›

Sourness comes from acidic ingredients (including tomatoes, wine and vinegar). If your dish tastes too sour try to add sweetness—think sugar, honey (it's healthy!), cream or even caramelized onions. You can also dilute the dish (same as you would with a dish with too much salt).

How to fix too much mustard in stroganoff? ›

Add sweetness to your dish. Honey or maple syrup are great choices for counterbalancing mustard, but even just a spoonful of sugar will help.

Yogurt is your best substitute for sour cream. Whether you're baking or making a dip or sauce, yogurt is a 1:1 sub.

Is mayonnaise a good substitute for sour cream? ›

Here's an ingredient you probably have on hand: mayonnaise! You can use it as a cup-for-cup replacement for sour cream in most recipes—including baked goods! (Mayo adds a ton of moisture to things like cakes and muffins because it's made from eggs and oil.)

Can I use cream cheese instead of sour cream? ›
