Just got a giant bag of mushrooms from my job for free. What the fuck do I do with them?
I would take a picture of them and then post it on 4chan for attention
Just eat em raw. Whatever you normally eat just put some on there. I enjoy a nice salad.
>>21822445Pizza. Mushrooms are such an underrated topping.
>>21822449Naahhhh, that'd be too pathetic.

>>21822445Chop them as fine as you can, lightly salt them, put them in the fridge for 5 days. Squeeze all the juice out with a cheesecloth. Add chili pepper, bay leaf, simmer everything down. Make mushroom sauce, risotto, whatever.
cram
>>21822459I agree with anonMushroom, green pepper, white onion (cut long and thin), and maybe some pepperoni. Ideal pizza.I also like to put some gorganzola under the toppings. Also underrated pizza topping. >>21822445I really like to make my own burgers with 70/30, some Pappy's seasoning mushed in with the meat, cook the burgers in a pan and then cook mushrooms in the juice left over from the burgers. Slap a slice of swiss on there too. Mushrooms love to soak up liquids, so I will cook the mushrooms on the side of the pan without juice first while the patties cook, then when the patties are done, move the mushrooms into the juice until nice and soft.
>>21822445Surely you could cram all those in one weekend
>>21822451humans can't digest raw mushrooms. They will just pass right through you and maybe give you the shits. Also I've heard mushroom nerds say portobellos are carcinogenic when uncooked because of agaratine or some shit. But don't quote me on that
>>21822445I used like half that amount in mushroom and potato soup yesterday
>>21822459Work better mixed in the sauce. You can freeze them with no downside.
>>21822445Freeze them. Or better, parcook then freeze them. Otherwise what you thaw is this brown, oxidized watery mess.
>>21822445Make mushroom ketchup.https://www.thespruceeats.com/mushroom-ketchup-recipe-1806791https://youtu.be/cnRl40c5NSs?si=VHf4k0y1it9ksM8tAlternatively, marinate them then oven-dry them to make ‘mushroom jerky’.
>>21822445That's a fairly small amount of mushrooms, especially once cooked.
>>21822445Mushroom ketchup. The 1800s larper has a pretty decent video on it.
>>21823024>>21823117Hivemind
>>21822445Mushroom chips
Mushrooms stew
>>21822445saute some of them with bacon and a little spice and soy sauce. wonderful savoury snack
they're going to go off within the week, so you'll be eating them for the next few days straightI recommend mushroom soup and mushroom pasta sauces, you can also chop it up super fine to add it to stuff like eggs,
>>21822445If you're interested I can give you a ferment recipe with mushrooms, onion and garlic. Keeps forever, very versatile for cooking.
>>21823024>>21823117Mushroom ketchup isn't very useful on its own, it's better as a base for other sauces, like Reading or Harvey's.
>>21822445If you've got too many to use in the "normal" ways, grind them and use them in patties and meatballs and such. With or without meat, honestly.
>>21822445pickle
>>21822936>humans can't digest raw mushrooms. Bullshit. That means I would see bits of mushroom in my poop.
>>21824212So? Instead of ERM ACKSHUALLY’ing the stupid fucking trolling shitposts you decide to fart-huff over one of the few actual genuine posts, just to show how fucking smart you are? Well I got sour news for ya Jack, you don’t come across as smart, you come across as a know-it-all cunt. Get fucked.
>>21824821Wow that guy made you mad. I guess you felt called out.
>>21822445Pasta sauceSoupShroom lasagna
>>21822445I like to saute them with onion and garlic in butter, once it's soft I blend it with some tomato puree until smooth, season it with salt and sage. Tastes good on pretty much anything.
Mushroom mushroom
>>21822445Works best on stainless steel pan>Sear the mushroom slices till they're golden brown and smell almost nutty>take the mushrooms out and sweat finely chopped onyo (it can get some color too)>throw some really finely chopped garlic till fragrant>deglaze with white wine (stainless gives best results at this stage)>add a bit of chicken stock or even chicken boulion cube with a bit of water>add heavy cream and the seared mushrooms, reduceIf you're brave enough throw some grated hard cheese (parmesan/grana padano) and if you're really brave, a bit of blue cheese.Ideally serve with tagliatelle pasta.Delish
>>21824721Fungal cell walls are made out of chitin, the same stuff in insect exoskeletons. We can't digest chitin but we stil get nutrients from the other fungal cell contents. Cooking helps to break up these cells.
mushroom ketchup
>>21822445Don't just look at them. Eat them.
how the fuck doyou store mushrooms to last long? Everytime that shit gets funky and slimy within just a few days of being opened. Do i just need to take the canned/jarred shroom pill?
>>21822445Mushroom cream cheese
>>21825272Unironically do not leave them in a bag or covered and put a paper towel in there to absorb the excess moisture. Same with bread in bags.
>>21825272Put them in a paper bag. Classic brown paper lunch bags work really well.
>>21825305>>21825292do you leave them in fridge or outside?
>>21825317In the fridge in a brown paper bag. The paper absorbs the moisture from the mushrooms and keeps them from getting slimy and gross. If you don't use them soon enough they'll get wrinkly and dry in the paper bag instead of slimy and wet like they do when stored in plastic.
>>21822445ravioli
>>21822445use them as toppings on a staple food/mix them in, only thing to do with them, they are used for flavour, not as food.
Make duxelles and use those in everything you can
Use them as filling for a big tray of vol-au-vents and imagine you're getting marriedI don't have a recipe
>>21822445Make a (lot of) duxelle. Then stuff it.
