1
Rinse (yes, rinse!) the mushrooms in a colander and pour onto an old kitchen towel or paper towels to pat dry.
2
Remove the stems and cut the mushroom caps into paper-thin slices with a sharp knife, Japanese slicer or mandoline.
3
In a large bowl, gently toss the mushroom slices with the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, and kosher salt. Let sit for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the mushrooms to marinate and absorb the flavors.
4
Serve with crackers or baguette slices.
