The best thing about this vegan button mushroom stroganoff after it’s popularity there have been so many versions and one of it like in Japan it is paired with white rice top with parsley and butter. In other countries, it is served with twisted egg noodles, sausage and beef.
And for me, I want to have it as a vegan version and so I make vegan button mushroom stroganoff. It’s cheap, healthy and makes a quick recipe thanks to its ingredients that are rich with nutrients and at the same time, you can make it gluten-free.
This vegan stroganoff is so versatile when it comes to your choice of mushroom and we all know that edible mushroom has lots of good benefits. You can use button mushroom (white or regular), shiitake, or portobello mushrooms.

Notes
> Using wine for this vegan button mushroom stroganoff is optional. You can also use white wine, I tried with and without cooking wine. The flavor is strong and overpowered the garlic so I prefer without cooking wine.
>To make this gluten-free you can use gluten-free all-purpose flour to replace cornstarch.
>Feel free to add another clove of garlic for that extra strong flavor.
> I use both white button mushroom and canned button mushroom.

Looks amazing! And it comes at a perfect time. I was just looking for some mushroom dishes for the holidays. A nice toasted loaf of crusty bread would make this the perfect meal for my family. Do you think you could make it ahead of time?
Hi Christine you may do so and you can just reheat if you want to. This recipe is just about 30 minutes and best serve while its hot. The last time I made I stored leftovers in a glass container and reheat the following day, 🙂 Let me know how it goes when you make it!
Looks amazing!
But I am allergic to soy. Could there be an option for me?
Best regards
Ann
