I like just munching on them.. but you could use them in salad,
saute them and serve with roast or steak, put them in a stuffing or you could mix some EVOO, salt, pepper and garlic powder then toss in the mushrooms and then roast them. Yummy!
 
I roast them with shallots, garlic, rosemary, and thyme and toss them with pasta.

I also make an Urban Peasant pasta dish with a mushroom sauce with whiskey and cream and Michael Chiarello's Pasta with Caramelized Mushrooms and Spinach.
 
Cora,
my kids love them sauteed in a little evoo and butter with leeks,or shallots, garlic, fresh parsley, salt and pepper,marjoram, then I make a roux, add a little white wine, beef stock and let it thicken a little, add several pats more of butter and serve over creamy buttery, cheesy polenta..Toss a green salad, some french bread..dinner :LOL:

make a duxelle (finely chopped with fresh herbs and shallot or onion, sauted in evoo or butter) and stuff a meat loaf with it...wonderful...or stuff tomato with it and broil...

make a stroganoff or risotto with mushrooms as the main event and meat for subtle flavoring.
 
I love this stuff! It's a Pampered Chef recipe.

Mushroom Bread

1 8 oz pkg refrigerated crescent rolls
2 cups fresh mushrooms sliced
1 tablespoon butter melted
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
1/4 teaspoon fines herbes or Italian Seasoning

Instructions: Preheat oven to 375*.

Separate dough into triangles. Place on 13" baking stone. Spread & roll out dough to cover stone.

Toss sliced mushrooms in melted butter to coat. Arrange mushrooms on top of dough. Sprinkle with cheese & herbs.

Bake 15 to 20 minutes. Cut into squares & serve warm.
 
shrooms! i love em! I loved the pampered chef recipe, I plan on making the for our next "girls night" (the girls like shrooms, the boys don't - perfect appetizer for us!) I saute mine with butter, a little bit of olive oil, a pinch of beef bouillon and finish it with some sherry - serve with anything - this keeps nice in fridge too.
 
For my husband, a proper breakfast is bangers (sausages) w/ bacon, eggs, sauteed mushrooms and toast! He does this for us at Christmas time! I can honestly say I had never had mushrooms for breakfast before, but they really are lovely w/the eggs, toast and meat!

Hey, I bet you have more recipes than mushrooms now, don't ya:LOL: You'll have to run out and buy more!
 
Jenny, add to that fried half a tomato and some blood pudding and you have a 'proper' , read that traditional, English breakfast, yummm.
 
:sick:
When I was in Scotland, my Grandad made us fried tomatoes every morning with our eggs & bacon. I had to force it down to be polite. And black pudding! Another :sick: Love the bangers and the bacon though!

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! Keep 'em comin!
 
This is one of my favourite...

Sautè mushrooms with thinly sliced onion or scallion. Season them with salt and pepper, maybe a dash of majoram. When they are well cooked, add a little white wine and let it get absorbed/evaporated. At the finish pour sour cream and heat it back up. It is delicious by themselves, or tossed with pasta.:)
 
What about mushroom bruschetta or an omelette or frittata? Or as one of the ways that I often eat them, simply pan cooked with some bacon cubes (slices), olive oil, salt and pepper (onions or onion salt is optional). Parmesan cheese to top.
 
When my husband finds them for a good price, he buys several boxes. We slice them and saute with garlic and olive oil, then sack them up in small ziplocks and put in the freezer. It's very handy when you need a few for a sauce or whatever.
 
I just take them and saute them in butter with sliced onions... till soft, then serve them over hamburger patties and gravy. but I would you share your mushroom soup recipe?
 
This may sound strange but something like 35 years ago made a recipe several times using sliced mushrooms. I lost that recipe many years ago.

As I recall, and it is a stretch, cooked the shrooms in butter with some shallots. Added Scotch, yes the booze, and some cream sherry. And then, I think added some sliced scallions. There may have been more to it, but I sure cannot recall what it could have been.

It came to mind recently, I have no idea why, and tried it. Found it was OK, had a nice flavor, but needed something.

It is sweet from the sherry.

And that is where I am with the recipe.

Maybe I should have brought this up in a separate post, if so, apologize.

But it anyone knows of a similar recipe or has any thoughts, I remember those suckers as being very tasty.

ok, you got me...blood pudding? black pudding? I am almost afraid to ask..but - you know- curiosity killed the cat! Is it good? Something I should surprise Davyboy with, or is it utter crap that noone eats except by force?:)

Mushroom in cream sauce
I also do a similar mushroom in cream sauce.
saute some garlic, shallots and mushrooms until soften. Now add a little liquor (I add whiskey). Then add a little heavy cream. Simmer. Remove mushrooms and reduce the pan liquids until it is like a thick sauce. Season with s/p and pour over mushrooms. Then mix a littel bread crumbs and some parmesan cheese put on top of mushrooms and stick under broiler until browned.
