Marsala is a fortified wine made in Sicily. It is delicious in cooking, because it lends a rich, caramelized flavor to dishes.

You can use whatever mushroom you like for this recipe, including chanterelle mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, or button mushrooms. I used cinnamon cap mushrooms I got from my farmers market in Ojai, which are locally produced in my region. The main thing to consider is that the mushrooms are the star of this recipe, so you want big pieces that you can bread and saute. Meatier texture mushrooms work better than more delicate mushrooms.
