Chanterelle (Pfiffeling) with Linguine

It's mushroom time again !

Mushroom Risotto


Picked some fresh mushrooms from the forest in the morning.  Now make a good guess: what is up for my lunch? Mushroom risotto of course.

Oyster Mushrooms with sugar peas & red bell pepper

It has been raining 'cats and dogs' on otherwise warm and sunny days. Which means mushroom weather as mushrooms do well in warm dampnes. Will have to wait another 3 warm days then it's mushroom hunting time.

Meanwhile, I have bought some oyster mushrooms. This is another of my all-time favourite dishes. Very quick to prepare and perfect to be served with steamed rice.

Oyster Mushrooms with sugar peas & red bell pepper
