June 12th, 2008

In my kitchen there are 800g white mushrooms that need to be eaten as soon as possible (out of date as of tomorrow). I have all the basics (butter, oil, garlic, onions etc.) and also some potatoes, celery, chopped tomatoes, sweetcorn, chickpeas and lentils but not a lot else (no alcohol or cream for example, but I can use milk or eggs). I have no idea what to do with these mushrooms. Any ideas.

I should try making some kind of soup or stew with all the ingredients you mention . or at least the ones you like the most. If you had cream you could have made cream of mushroom soup . can’t you get to the shops.

Cook them in butter, garlic, salt and pepper. Add a very little amount of milk, and stir in some flour until thickened. Serve with toast wedges. Yummy German appitizer.

In that situation, I’d be thinking either stirfry, or curry, with the chickpeas as a lentil substitute. Just chop the mushrooms up and mix them in with everything else. You don’t mention if you have rice or not, but maybe that’s not a problem for you.
Or how about a stew, just stew everything up so that the juices blend together, but mash the potatoes seperately so you have a contrast.
You could also just bake the mushrooms in the oven, a little bit of butter on each one after you wash them, a little seasoning, then after about ten minutes they should be ready.

mushroom soup. but just because the date says tomorrow doesn’t mean they won’t keep longer, just make sure they look OK, they’re not “slimey” or smell off and you’ll be fine.
sweat some onions and garlic off with the chopped mushrooms, add stock and chopped potatoes, blend.

I’d suggest composting them. They’re near their date and mushrooms are quite disgusting. Compost them and use the compost to grow something better tasting like avocado and tomato.

Fry Mushrooms with onions add flour then milk 1pint or so, stir until a thick consistency. add more milk if you have too and if you want to use cornflower to thicken it mix it in cold water first or otherwise it will go all lumpy
Make a stir fry with the the other ingredients.

Mushroom sauce
1> Put 1 table spoon of oil into a pan and turn the heat on high. When the pan is hot, add onion, minced garlic.
2>When the onion and garlic turned golden, add mushroom and quickly add some light soy sauce or bragg liquid aminos. If you don’t have soy sauce, salt work just fine, I guess.
3>Keep cooking until the mushroom turn brown. Turn the heat to low.
4>Add milk and 2 table spoon of flour into a separate bowl, whisk it until the the flour fine mixed with the milk, add the mixture into a pan and low heating until the sauce thickened.
Serve with baked potato or pasta. If you serve with pasta, you can add some celery and chopped tomato into step 2
