Cooking Portobello

BEFORE COOKING:

Before cooking, fresh Portobello mushrooms are cleaned, washed, and dried.

COOKING:

Place the Portobello mushrooms in cold water, ensuring there is enough water to completely cover them. Cook the Portobello mushrooms for 15–20 minutes. Timing starts from when the water reaches a boil. If there is any doubt about the type of mushrooms being cooked, change the water during cooking (once or twice) or avoid consuming them! If there are no doubts, changing the water is not necessary during cooking. Skim off any foam during cooking. Salt the water towards the end of cooking. For added flavour, you may include pepper, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, marjoram, or bay leaf. Cook with the lid on. The cooked mushrooms are soft and delicate.

AFTER COOKING:

After cooking, drain and dry the Portobello mushrooms.

SERVING SUGGESTION:

Portobello mushrooms can be enjoyed as a delicacy or as an addition to other dishes (cereals, rice, or vegetables). They can also serve as an excellent main ingredient in mushroom soup, a marinade, or a sauce.

Enjoy your meal!
