Some call mushrooms the meat for vegetarians. We just think they’re a delicious and versatile fungi. With a splash of wine, fresh herbs and spices you can take the humble vegetable to a whole new level.
Cook your shiitake mushrooms with asparagus in a quick Chinese stir-fry, or slowly braise some king oysters and woodear mushrooms with chillies and Sichuan pepper in Tony Tan’s dun xiang gu. For a next-level brunch, it’s got to be Sean Moran’s mixed mushrooms on toast with lashings of butter, or Jacques Reymond’s baked ‘shrooms with hazelnuts and golden shallots.
Mushrooms have always been the side dish to a hearty main, however, we believe mushrooms deserve to be the star of the show. Whether you’re a fan of roasted mushrooms, fresh mushrooms by themselves, or are an exclusive mushroom risotto lover, these magical recipes are just for you.
