Mushroom Chips

• 1 lb large white mushroom
• 2 cups vegetable oil
• kosher salt, as needed
• fresh ground black pepper (optional)
• chopped fresh parsley, garnish (optional)

1. With a sharp knife or a mandolin, slice each mushroom cap horizontally into very thin, almost translucent slices.
2. In a small saucepan, over medium heat, heat oil to 375u0b0F.
3. Add mushroom slices, a few at a time, to hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 6 minutes.
4. With a slotted spoon, remove mushroom slices from oil and drain on paper towels; repeat until all mushrooms are cooled.
5. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper if using.
6. Now, sprinkle with a few chopped parsley leaves.
7. The mushroom chips will become crisper as they cool; allow 1 hour.
8. Serve with cocktails, as a soup garnish, on a salad and/or with a steak.
