Marvellous Mushrooms

I grew up eating field mushrooms that popped out of the rambling lawns in the botanical gardens my father ran. Almost every year, sometimes twice a year, mushrooms pop up around our house.

This time they were huge. They smelt divine.

They pop out, from deep under, and out of and nests, pushing up through the stones on the paths in the vegetable garden.

I trundled one to the market and discovered that we've been living cheek by jowl with a mushroom man. The Husband has even worked on his property and they chat regularly at the market. For details of his reaction, look out for a "proper" post.

Suffice it to say that our giant mushroom are imminently edible.

And divinely delicious.

Last night's meat free Monday supper: mushroom risotto.

Until next time, be well

• re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
• and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts.
