Shiitake Mushroom Meatballs Appetizer

Martha Hoy Bohner
The need for an appetizer for get-togethers always seems to come up when I'm most busy and don't have the time to put a lot of work into it - yet the foodie in me always wants to take something memorable. So our Shiitake Mushroom Sauce paired with frozen or pre-made meatballs makes an especially flavorful but easy appetizer: Shiitake Mushroom Meatballs. Our Shiitake Sauce was chef-created back when most people didn't know what to do with brown mushrooms, to take the uncertainty out of cooking with shiitakes. Shiitakes are more well-known and prized for their robust flavor by even casual cooks today, but our sauce remains a popular way to easily add flavor to meats or meatballs, potatoes or pasta. Keep a jar on hand for your next appetizer emergency!
