Like mushrooms, tofu has a high protein content (9 grams per 3-ounce serving), making it a nutritious option for meat-free meals. How to useEdible mushrooms are the fleshy and edible fruit bodies of several species of macrofungi ( fungi which bear fruiting structures large enough to be seen with the naked eye). Edibility may be defined by criteria including the absence of poisonous effects on humans and desirable taste and aroma. Edible mushrooms are consumed for their nutritional and culinary value. Mushrooms, especially dried shiitake, are sources of umami flavor. Add onions and fresh mushrooms to your large sauce pan with olive oil.

They don’t have a stem, which is distinctive of other mushrooms, and look like a small brown lumpy potato. Truffles can have a strong flavor and aroma in contrast to the mild earthy or even neutral flavor of mushrooms. Common mushrooms grow year round, while truffles have a short growing season. Some truffles are famously expensive, at thousands of dollars per pound, such as the white truffle that grows about 3 months of the year and is difficult to find underground. Because of their rarity and top price, they may be served sparingly as fresh shavings or infused into sauces, and are often paired with rich cheese and meat dishes.
