Mushroom Types, Descriptions and Uses
|
The
White Button (Agaricus Brunnescens) is the most frequently used of
all Mushrooms. Also, called Champignon, they've been cultivated by the
French since the 1700's. Today, the United States is the largest grower
of cultivated White Button Mushrooms. The Champignon retains it's shape
well when cooked, although they do shrink a little in size. The
Champignon has a mild flavor and firm texture and comes in sliced form.
The Champignon absorbs flavors well in any dish.
Suggested Use:
When
reconstituted, Dried Champignon look, cook and taste just like their
fresh form. Delicious in gravy, sauces, cream soups, stews, stir fry
recipes, pasta, casseroles - just about anything youd want to use
mushrooms in Buttons are good to take along on camping trips to add
extra flavor to camp fire meals.
