Mushrooms in the News: 02-21-2023

Parade featured a “dietitian-approved grocery list” for nutritious foods. Mushrooms place near the top of the list for their “selenium, B vitamins and vitamin D, which supports immune health.” 

Tasting Table highlighted mushrooms in a recent article, 15 Appetizers That Pair Nicely With Martinis, showcasing that mushrooms continue to trend in the cocktail scene. The article states: “Sautéed mushrooms, another savory dish ideal for nibbling on while enjoying a classic martini, can counteract the cocktail’s brine and citrus with earthy notes and textural heft.” 

Portabella mushrooms were the star of the Food Network’s show, Chopped. Chefs were challenged to create a meatless dish using mushrooms, basil and meatless burger patties.
