About Mushrooms, shiitake
The white mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) is the everyday cultivated mushroom found in nearly every grocery store, sold young and pale as the button mushroom, slightly older and tan as cremini or baby bella, and fully grown as the big, meaty portobello. It is the same species at three stages, with the flavor deepening from mild and earthy to rich and savory as it matures. Mushrooms are low in calories and fat yet bring satisfying umami, along with B vitamins, copper, selenium, potassium, and a rare plant source of vitamin D when exposed to sunlight.
Slice them raw into salads, saute them in butter and garlic, stir them into pasta, omelets, and risotto, pile them onto pizza, or grill a portobello cap as a juicy burger stand-in. Choose firm, dry caps with no sliminess, and store mushrooms in a paper bag in the refrigerator so they can breathe and last about a week.
