Cooking mushroom caviar from honey agarics
Add 2 cups of salt to a bucket of honey agarics and fill with cold water, leave for 1 hour. Then you carefully need to sort out the mushrooms with your hands. They will become white, clean and shiny. Next, drain the water and let them drain, putting the mushrooms on a sieve.
Fill with cold water and send to cook for 40 minutes, adding 2 bay leaves, cloves and a little salt.
Chop the onion and fry it in a cast iron in plenty of oil until slightly golden brown. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater and add to the onion, add salt and pepper to taste. Then cut the pepper into strips, add to the vegetables and simmer over low heat under a closed lid until tender.
