💡 Tips for Perfect Buttery Mushrooms
Avoid overcrowding the pan — it prevents mushrooms from browning properly.
Use a mix of mushrooms (button, cremini, shiitake) for deeper flavor.
Add a splash of white wine or balsamic vinegar for a gourmet touch.
Finish with a small pat of butter for extra richness.
