125 ml. Water
60 g. Sugar
sprig. Fresh thyme
2. Bay leaves
10. Black peppercorns
1 tblsp. Sea salt
Dry fry the mushrooms over a moderate heat so that they start to release moisture & continue until they have given up most of there moisture, at this point sprinkle with the salt.
Add all of the remaining ingredients & bring to a simmer, continue to simmer for 3 minutes.
Remove the mushrooms & place in a pickling jar, when the jar is full add enough liquid to cover the mushrooms.
