These mushroom recipes should tell you two things: First, we are absolutely mushroom people (not like The Last of Us mushroom people, just, like, enthusiasts). Second—and this may help explain the first point—mushrooms are incredibly versatile. First, there are so many mushroom varieties, including porcinis, morels, chanterelles, crimini (sometimes spelled cremini), and more, but these edible fungi are also equally at home in Italian pasta as they are in a Chinese-inspired soup, a French cream sauce, or a good-old American Thanksgiving side dish with wild rice or mushroom gravy. Their meaty texture makes them a mainstay in vegan and vegetarian cooking, but they’re also good companions to chicken or red meats. (Cue the Beef Stroganoff.) So, join us: Here are our favorite ways to embrace being a mushroom person, also known as our favorite mushroom recipes.
