The Mushroom Hunter's Kitchen
The definitive guide to cooking with wild and cultured mushrooms, with 120 recipes for everything from dinner to dessert
Whether you’re a dedicated mushroom forager or you rely on shops or markets for your fungi fill, you can make the most of your mushroom haul with The Mushroom Hunter’s Kitchen. Chad Hyatt shares his favourite recipes, plus tips and techniques for cooking mushrooms safely and maximising their flavour. This guide to creating incredible meals, snacks, preserves, and desserts uses the humble button mushroom, the revered morel, the common oyster mushroom, the elusive huitlacoche, and everything in between.
Cooking with mushrooms doesn’t have to be intimidating. If you’re intrigued by a recipe but prefer to stick to the varieties you can find at your local market, recipes offer substitutions for uncommon mushrooms, so they’re all within reach regardless of season or foraging experience. The Mushroom Hunter’s Kitchen is sure to delight seasoned mushroom foragers, amateur fungi aficionados, and foodies alike.
