I absolutely love all things mushrooms, particularly exploring all the edible varieties I can find and trying them! Thing is, I live in the city and am the only one in my house who eats mushrooms (no one else likes having them in the house, let alone on a plate!) so I was wondering if anyone had any advice for 1) where to find a variety of mushrooms (I mostly see Portobello and cremini) and 2) any good ways to cook or prepare mushrooms for just one person? I typically just fry them up in a skillet or add them into a stir fry after I’ve made everyone else’s plates.
I hope this doesn’t break any rules! I couldn’t find anything on the side bar about what types of posts are allowed. If it does, could someone be kind enough to point me to another place to post this?
Either buy them in an asian super market or grow them on your own. (Photo below).
How to prepare: add them to your skillet, put a splash of how water in it and put the lid on. Cook them for a few minutes, then lid off, and some (I prefer A LOT) of butter and spices. Sometimes, depending on the kind of mushroom, only salt and pepper (high quality ones), sometimes onions or garlic, whatever you want.
