Best Mushrooms To Eat
Let’s take a look at some of the different types of mushrooms out there so that you can up your mushroom knowledge before you flex your cooking skills. White Button – Small and white, and best eaten whole or halved, so not usually ideal to stuff, but wonderful in stews and casseroles. Open cup/flat – Large and white and delicious when roasted. Some people even enjoy these as a vegetarian alternative to burgers when squashed between buns. Portobello – For stuffed mushroom dishes like this one, portobello mushrooms are a dream. You can fry them, bake them, and cut out the stems before filling them with tasty ingredients. Oyster – Shaped like oysters, these mushrooms can be torn by hand instead of diced. Try adding them to your next pasta or stir-fry recipe. Porcini – Also known as ‘penny bun’ in English or ‘cep’ in French, these mushrooms are wild, seasonal, and rich in taste and texture. Closed cup – medium-sized and white, some people even enjoy eating them raw. They are known to accompany salads and are often fried and added to sauces. Chestnut – Similar to a closed cup but brown and with a nuttier flavor. Add them to a pie, or something hearty like a risotto dish. Shiitake – Originating in Japan, they have gained popularity worldwide. Try using them in an Asian-inspired soup, broth, or noodles dish. King oyster – Perhaps not as easy to come by as other varieties, king oyster mushrooms are renowned for their thick stems which are topped with small caps. Enoki – Long and thin, these unique mushrooms have an unusual, elongated, and skinny appearance, and are enjoyed in East Asian cuisine.What to Eat Stuffed Mushrooms With
