]]> Mushrooms are a versatile and delicious addition to many recipes. There are several mushrooms to choose from that will offer magical flavors to any dish that will transcend your life. If you’re looking to learn more about mushroom varieties and different recipes you can try out with them, look no further!

Lions Mane Mushrooms

Lions Mane is one of our favorites simply because it packs so much flavor, and has a meaty and umami flavor that can be enjoyed in so many vegan dishes to replace meat. If you’re looking for vegan inspiration, try using Lions Mane to make cumin lemon kebabs. Grill the manes on a stick like you would a kebab and enjoy the meaty flavor of mushrooms.

Oyster Mushrooms

Oyster mushrooms are an excellent source of fiber and vitamin C. They offer a complex, earthy, and meaty flavor that will enhance many dishes such as stir fry, soups, and salads. We recommend grilling them and adding them to your baked mac and cheese for a decadent flavor.

Miatake

Maitake, also known as “hen of the woods,” is often used in many Japanese and Chinese dishes, and offer a distinct woodsy flavor that can be used to enhance many recipes. Throw them into stir fry or cook them alone. We recommend cooking them as steaks and eating them with a side of mashed potatoes and green beans!

Whether you’re a mushroom aficionado or just beginning to delve into their delightful world, we are here to guide you on how to incorporate mushrooms into your cooking, adding depth and richness to your dishes.

Go Beyond the Button

While button mushrooms are a common go-to, don’t be afraid to venture into the diverse range of mushrooms available. Explore varieties like cremini, shiitake, oyster, portobello, and chanterelle, each with its distinct flavor profile.

Enhance Your Starters

Whip up creamy mushroom bruschetta, stuffed mushroom caps, or savory mushroom tarts. These delectable bite-sized treats will leave your guests craving for more and add a touch of elegance to your gatherings.

Create Flavorful Soups and Stews

Mushrooms bring a hearty and earthy flavor to soups and stews. Add sliced mushrooms to your favorite vegetable soup for an extra depth of flavor or create a comforting mushroom and barley soup that will warm your soul. For a rich and indulgent dish, try a creamy mushroom bisque that will leave you wanting seconds.

Elevate Pasta and Risotto

Incorporating mushrooms into pasta and risotto dishes can take your culinary creations to the next level. Sautee sliced mushrooms with garlic and herbs and toss them into a creamy mushroom fettuccine. Alternatively, stir in a medley of mushrooms into a decadent mushroom risotto, offering a symphony of flavors in every bite.

Master the Art of Mushroom Sauces

Mushroom-based sauces can transform any dish into a gourmet experience. Whip up a velvety mushroom gravy to accompany your roasted meats or create a savory mushroom and red wine sauce to drizzle over a juicy steak. The umami-packed flavors of mushrooms will infuse your dishes with an irresistible depth.

Go Meatless with Mushroom Burgers

For veggie lovers or those looking to cut back on meat, mushroom burgers are a delicious alternative. Marinate large portobello mushrooms in a tangy marinade and grill them to perfection. Serve them on a bun with your favorite toppings for a satisfying and meaty vegetarian burger experience.

]]> If you’re a fan of comforting and creamy soups, then a bowl of homemade cream of mushroom soup is just what you need. With its earthy flavors and velvety texture, this soup is perfect for chilly days or when you’re craving something cozy. Don’t worry, making this delicious soup from scratch is easier than you might think. Here’s how to do it with flying colors.

Early Steps

Start by gathering fresh mushrooms of your choice. Whether you prefer button mushrooms, cremini, or shiitake, the choice is yours. Clean the mushrooms and slice them into thin pieces. In a large pot, melt some butter and sauté chopped onions and garlic until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook them until they release their juices and turn golden brown.

Adding the Elements

Next, it’s time to create the creamy base for the soup. Sprinkle some flour over the mushrooms and stir it in to create a paste. Slowly pour in vegetable or chicken broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook until the soup thickens.

The Final Touch

Now, for that extra creaminess, it’s time to add the star ingredient—heavy cream. Pour in the cream and stir it well to incorporate. Season the soup with salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices you enjoy. Enjoy!

There’s a mushrooms for every dish, and a dish for every mushroom. 

Stuffed Mushrooms

This works best with large, flat mushrooms, so break out the portabellos! The versatility of the dish is endless as you can top the grilled mushrooms with anything you like. Spinach, feta, and breadcrumbs is a winning combination; as is pesto, tomatoes, and melted mozzarella cheese.

Mushroom Soup

Perfect for chilly nights (or any time, really) is a good ol’ mushroom soup. Creamy and velvety, the soup can be as simple as blending mushrooms, garlic, cream, and stock—or you can also throw in some barley and fresh herbs like thyme.

Mushroom Pasta

Almost everyone has heard of Fettucine Alfredo, but the mushroom pasta as we know it doesn’t really exist in Italy. Instead, it is a dish made popular in the United States. That’s not to say that mushroom pasta does not exist! Linguine al a fungi often features a creamy sauce and we prefer using as many types of mushrooms as we can!

]]> If you have a special place in your heart for creamy soups, cream of mushroom soup is probably one of your favorite dishes. It’s usually made by mixing basic roux with stock, cream or milk, and mushrooms, but there are several variations of this dish that prove how incredibly versatile it is.

Smooth Mushroom Soup

Whenever the term “cream of mushroom soup” is thrown around, most people think about creamy, ultra-smooth soup. To achieve its velvety-smooth texture, you’ll have to purée the soup with an immersion blender and you can even strain it through a chinois if needed.

Chunky Mushroom Soup

Your cream of mushroom soup doesn’t have to be super-smooth to be super-delicious. Chunky mushroom soup with stew-like texture can taste just as amazing and you can make it by adding sautéed mushrooms to the soup at the end of the cooking process.

Vegan Mushroom Soup

Mushrooms are a staple of a plant-based diet, but the classic cream of mushroom soup contains some non-vegan ingredients. You can put a twist on it by replacing these add-ins with their plant-based alternatives, such as vegan butter, milk, and broth or stock.

]]> Mushrooms are one of the tastiest things you can eat. Although they’re classified as veggies, technically they’re a form of fungi—but who’s really keeping track? The most important thing is how they always manage to elevate every dish they’re a part of. So if for some crazy reason you’ve never had mushrooms, here are three ways you can eat them.

So Fresh and So Clean

The most basic option for eating mushrooms is to simply eat them fresh and uncooked. Rinse them thoroughly, pop them in your mouth, and you’ll be good to go. Add them to your pizza and you’ll be equally satisfied.

Sautéed

Another excellent way to eat mushrooms is to sauté them on a skillet with butter, onions, garlic, or any other vegetable you can think of. Allow your mushrooms to caramelize into a soft texture, and they’ll be an incredible addition to almost any dish!

Soup

Another amazing way to use mushrooms is to make them into soup. There are countless soup recipes out there that incorporate mushrooms, from cream of mushroom soup to mushroom barley. Take a look, and we guarantee you that you’ll love it! All in all, mushrooms are delicious and you certainly shouldn’t sleep on them.

]]> We might be teetering towards the edge of winter, but the freezing cold weather doesn’t look like it’s leaving any time soon. If you find the snow keeping you glum, have no fear! This mushroom soup recipe is warm and sweet, and will have you feeling cuddly and optimistic in no time! Here’s how to make it.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 pound sliced mushrooms
  • 1 diced onion
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 3 1/2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon chicken powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Getting Started

Combine the mushrooms and the onions, and then divide them in half. To be clear, this means you now have one group of mushrooms and onions and another group of mushrooms and onions. Take one of the groups and puree it until pasty. Set aside.

After that, melt the butter in a pot over medium heat, and proceed to sauté the other group of mushrooms and onions. Do this until the veggies are golden brown.

Taking Shape

Add the flour to your pot, and stir it in thoroughly. Add the water and chicken powder, and mix until you’ve achieved a thick consistency. Add the rest of the mushrooms and onions, and then the salt and pepper as well.

Allow your soup to simmer for around 30 minutes, and add the heavy cream at the end. Mix over a low flame for 5-10 more minutes, and you’re done!

]]> Mushrooms are one of the tastiest things you can eat. Although they’re classified as veggies, technically they’re a form of fungi—but who’s really keeping track? The most important thing is how they always manage to elevate every dish they’re a part of. So if for some crazy reason you’ve never had mushrooms, here are three ways you can eat them.

So Fresh and So Clean

The most basic option for eating mushrooms is to simply eat them fresh and uncooked. Rinse them thoroughly, pop them in your mouth, and you’ll be good to go. Add them to your pizza and you’ll be equally satisfied.

Sautéed

Another excellent way to eat mushrooms is to sauté them on a skillet with butter, onions, garlic, or any other vegetable you can think of. Allow your mushrooms to caramelize into a soft texture, and they’ll be an incredible addition to almost any dish!

Soup

Take a look, and we guarantee you that you’ll love it! All in all, mushrooms are delicious and you certainly shouldn’t sleep on them.

]]> We might be teetering towards the edge of winter, but the freezing cold weather doesn’t look like it’s leaving any time soon. If you find the snow keeping you glum, have no fear! This mushroom soup recipe is warm and sweet, and will have you feeling cuddly and optimistic in no time! Here’s how to make it.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 pound sliced mushrooms
  • 1 diced onion
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 3 1/2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon chicken powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Getting Started

Combine the mushrooms and the onions, and then divide them in half. To be clear, this means you now have one group of mushrooms and onions and another group of mushrooms and onions. Take one of the groups and puree it until pasty. Set aside.

After that, melt the butter in a pot over medium heat, and proceed to sauté the other group of mushrooms and onions. Do this until the veggies are golden brown.

Taking Shape

Add the flour to your pot, and stir it in thoroughly. Add the water and chicken powder, and mix until you’ve achieved a thick consistency. Add the rest of the mushrooms and onions, and then the salt and pepper as well.

Allow your soup to simmer for around 30 minutes, and add the heavy cream at the end. Mix over a low flame for 5-10 more minutes, and you’re done!
