I am going to make a homemade pizza and bought fresh spinach and fresh mushrooms. In the past, I have found fresh mushrooms to be extremely watery when you just put them on the pizza. How do you prepare them so they aren't watery? Also, should you precook the spinach? If so, how?|||You can saute the mushrooms in some olive oil until they give up their water (they'll shrink a bit) and they brown slightly. For the spinach, I would briefly saute it just until it wilts, then remove it and when it cools, gently put paper towel around it and squeeze out some of the excess water. Be careful not to dry either one too much because it will need some moisture to stand up to the high heat needed for making pizza or it will burn on top of the pie.|||Quick blanch the shrooms and spinach 2 min. in boiling water. Drain and set for 5 min. Add to pizza.|||Sautee mushrooms and spinach in butter. Throw in some chopped garlic.
