• Add mushrooms, combining well.
• Add black pepper, garlic, and pepper flakes.
• Stir well. Lower heat to simmer. DO NOT COVER as this will poach vegetables.
• Continue to simmer until mushrooms give off their juices but are still firm. It is important NOT to overcook as they will cook again when reheated to be used.

• Allow to cool. Peppers and mushrooms should still have body to them.
• I like to bag portions in plastic sandwich bags, spread out so they are flat in bag. This makes for easy storage once they are frozen. I then place several bags into a freezer storage bag.
