The best thing about this vegan button mushroom stroganoff after its popularity there have been so many versions and one of it like in Japan it is paired with a white rice top with parsley and butter. In other countries, it is served with twisted egg noodles, sausage and beef.

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.
