Broiled Mushrooms


Broiled Mushrooms


fresh mushroom caps of the size and in the quantity desired
melted butter 
salt
freshly ground black pepper
small toast rounds (optional)
soft butter
lemon juice


Preheat the broiler. Using a pastry brush, paint each mushroom cap with melted butter. Arrange the caps side by side and hollow side up in a well- buttered, shallow baking dish. Season them lightly with salt and pepper and broil them 6" from the heat for 5 minutes. Gently turn the caps over and broil them for another 5 minutes, or until they are lightly browned and tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife.
To serve, arrange them on a heated platter (on toast rounds if desired). Dot the tops with a bit of soft butter and sprinkle each cap with a few drops of lemon juice.
