Prep Time: Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: ~30 minutes
Serving Size: 12

Ingredients

1)24 small white mushrooms, cleaned and with caps separated from stalks
2) 1 cup strongly brewed Genmai Cha
3) 2 tbsp butter
4) 1/3 c. chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)
5) 1/2 c. mozzarella cheese
6) 1 c. Italian style bread crumbs
7) Fresh parsley, to taste

Directions
Melt the butter in a pan over medium-high heat. Chop the mushroom stalks into small pieces, and add them to the pan. Sautee until they become a bit softer. Add the chopped nuts and bread crumbs to the mix and stir well. Slowly add the Genmai Cha tea to the mix so that the mixture has a thick (solid, but not too dry) consistency. Add the mozzarella and parsley and stir well so that the melted cheese blends will all the other ingredients. Remove the mixture from the heat. With any remaining Genmai Cha tea, baste the caps of the mushrooms and invert on a greased baking sheet. Fill each mushroom with a spoonful of the stuffing. Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes.
