A simple recipe for an hor d'ouvre, and later good in salads, that is, if there are any left! Even lukewarm mushroom likers are impressed!

--------  ------------  --------------------------------
1         pound         mushroom caps
1         medium        sweet onion, sliced thin  
2         cloves        garlic, minced
2/3       cup           tarragon vinegar
1/2       cup           canola oil (do not use olive oil)
1         Tablespoon    salt
3         Tablespoon    sugar 
3         Tablespoon    water
                        several drops Tabasco (or more if you like)
 

Preparation:

Put the oil, vinegar, salt, sugar, water, and Tabasco in a glass shallow bowl (or cakepan). Add the mushrooms and onions. Stir well and spoon over mushroom caps well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or more. Serve both mushrooms and onions in a bowl. Later the marinade can be used on greens. These keep well and are excellent in salads. For family members the stems can be trimmed and used with the mushroom caps.
