One pound of mushrooms. So many delicious possibilities. ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿ‚

Picked up our seasonal fresh mushroom mix? Hereโ€™s an easy way to let all those flavors and textures shine:
Golden mushrooms with garlic & herbs
โ€ข Trim any tough stem ends, brush away debris, and slice or tear into similar-sized pieces.
โ€ข Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a little olive oil.
โ€ข Add mushrooms in batches starting with the most dense, giving them room to brown. Let them sit for a few minutes before stirring!
โ€ข Cook until tender and golden, then lower the heat and add butter (or more olive oil), minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper.
โ€ข Finish with a squeeze of lemon or deglaze with w**e/sherry/stock.
Pile onto sourdough toast, toss with pasta and Parmesan, spoon over creamy polenta, or serve alongside your favorite dinner. โœจ

Our mix changes with the season!

Grab a 1lb seasonal fresh mix at our stores (discounted for National Mushroom Day 10/12-10/16) and get cooking. Save this for dinner inspiration!

Risotto was all over my feed, fall had arrived, and Ian came home from foraging with chanterelles. Dinner was decided. ๐Ÿ„โ€๐ŸŸซ๐Ÿ‚

Risotto calls for white w**e. I didnโ€™t have any, soโ€ฆ bubbles it is. ๐Ÿฅ‚

I spent approximately forever stirring at the stove while Tortilla the tortoise made his kitchen laps and stopped by to check on me. A true labor of love, and SO worth itโ€ผ๏ธ

The real plot twist? Both of my teenage daughters liked it. A fall miracle! โœจ

Save this for your next chanterelle haul. ๐ŸคŽ๐Ÿงก
