Their meaty, somewhat exotic flavor is deeper and far more complex than that of the more common
plain white button mushrooms, and their unique woodsy flavor combined with their ease of cooking and versatility make them a very popular choice for the discerning gastrophile.
To serve in a gourmet treat style: Float three one - inch - size firm
white button mushrooms, stuffed side up, roasted under the broiler or on the grill, and stuffed with a bit of chopped roasted tomato, a little minced in salt and lemon juice fresh garlic or oven - roasted garlic puree, a pinch of fresh thyme and or fresh basil, and fresh mint, homemade fresh coarse breadcrumbs (could even use those dried ends you saved from your black - olive bread), and topped with just a tiny bit of marinated creamy goat cheese; I use
plain Celebrity label, marinated pucks.
