Roasted baby portobello mushrooms tossed with capers and onions in a deliciously seasoned tomato sauce. An easy mushroom recipe that makes a tasty side dish!
I made you a side dish and it’s really, really good! I promise!
But first, HEEEEY! How are you? How was your weekend? I’d rate mine at about a 3, given the circ*mstances – read about THAT here – but at least I got to unwind and watch some reality trash TV for 5 hours straight. It keeps things off your mind, ya know?
Also? Happy start to the week! Fingers crossed, we won’t be seeing any snow or below freezing temps like last week.
In food news,there is a great reason that I’m telling you about mushrooms today.I figured that I should probably stop talking about asparagusby now since I haven’t be able to, you know, shut the heck up about them. Thus, I decided to go with mushrooms and onions,instead.
But I made these ‘shroomsand we LOVED ‘EM. Like loved ’em-loved ’em. It was a nice change of pace. Occasionally we get in a rut of only asparagus, broccoli, or brussels sprouts and this was a welcome change.
There are two key components to making these killer Roasted Italian Mushrooms:
I mean, can you think of anything more flavorful than olive oil infused WITH garlic!? That’s just it; you can’t.STAR, in collaboration with Chef Ferran Adrià, carriesa range of infused olive oils that are completely natural and original, allowing you to enhance the flavor of all your favorite dishes.
Then there’s the capers. You might disagree, but I think there are a handful of ingredients that can really add life to a dish: lemon, garlic, olives and capers. Olive oil and vinegar, too.
Capers, with their distinctivesharp flavor, are theperfect ingredient to add tomarinades and sauces, as I did here. However, all I reallywanted to do is stick my hand in the jarand eat ’em up, but I have people to feed, so…
This recipe is super easy to make. We’re just going to toss the mushrooms in the roasted garlic olive oil ➡roast them ➡prepare the tomato sauce with onions, capers and some lemon peel ➡toss the mushrooms with the prepared sauce ➡and TAH-DAHM! You really can’t go wrong with this.

Roasting mushrooms is easy and one of the best ways to cook them. I roast mushrooms with olive oil and herbs until golden brown, then stir in fresh garlic a few minutes before they come out of the oven. Our oven-roasted mushrooms are simple and so flavorful.
Not only are they earthy, savory, and meaty but also are packed with nutrients! Roasted mushrooms in the oven are generally low in calories and fat and are great to bulk up a meal. They contain Vitamin D, riboflavin, potassium and are a good source of fiber!
Spread them in an even layer on a parchment lined baking sheet.Roast until they are golden brown and crisp around the edges for about 20-25 minutes, tossing once halfway through. Once the mushrooms are removed from the oven, toss them with the chopped garlic, lemon zest and juice, capers, and parsley.
Mushrooms are commonly used in Italian cuisine and add a deep, earthy flavor to many dishes. In particular, porcini mushrooms are a staple ingredient in many Italian recipes. These mushrooms have a strong, meaty flavor, making them a popular addition to soups, sauces, and risotto dishes.
Butter is great because it adds lots of flavor and produces a nice golden brown exterior, while adding oil allows the mushrooms to cook a little more quickly at slightly higher heat.
Some of the mushrooms considered best for human health include chaga, lion's mane, reishi, turkey tail, shiitake, cordyceps and maitake. Often considered vegetables, mushrooms are neither plants nor animals. They belong to a unique kingdom of fungi.
Mushrooms are a rich, low-calorie source of fiber, protein, and antioxidants. They may also help to lessen the risk of developing serious health conditions, such as Alzheimer's, heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. They're also great sources of: Selenium.
Shiitake, Oyster, and Lion's Mane mushrooms are considered one of the healthiest mushrooms. The shape, color, size, and flavor of mushroom varieties differ, but they do share similar nutritional values. Most mushrooms offer: Carbohydrates.
Covering the mushrooms for the first few minutes of cooking helps them release their liquid and brown more quickly. Once uncovered, the liquid evaporates, and the mushrooms begin to brown.
Sautéing them in oil first is a crucial mistake when cooking with mushrooms, as the oil will disappear, so you'll add more but then be left with soggy, oil-logged mushrooms. Cooking the mushrooms in water -- although counterintuitive and unconventional -- solves the problem of soggy mushrooms.
The study demonstrated that cooking methods have an effect on the flavor profile of white mushrooms. Sear mushrooms for a more intense roasted, charred and smoky flavor and overall aroma. Roast mushrooms to get more sweet, salty and umami tastes with caramelized, nutty and buttery flavors.
It's all too easy to include porcini in a dish on your menu. Most restaurateurs rely on this traditional and famous mushroom to delight the palate of their guests, with very good reasons behind them which we will see shortly.
Porcini mushrooms, sold both fresh and dried, are prized in Italian and French cuisine. These popular mushrooms (also known as king bolete or cèpe in French) are cultivated in Europe, North America, and parts of Asia, and grow naturally in pine forests at the base of trees.
Porcini, pioppini, russulas, morels, and chanterelles for example are tied to oak, beech, chestnut and pine forests. Some wild mushroom varieties are even said to protect our skin from sun damage, one of the many reasons why they are popular in the Italian diet.
Many don't know that boiling is one of the best ways to cook mushrooms. Simply boil the mushrooms in as little water as possible. You want to ensure that the water boils off just as the mushrooms are reaching an al dente state. As soon as the water is gone and the mushrooms have a nice bite to them, add some olive oil.
Pan roasting means that the meat, poultry or fish is browned and then roasted, in a hot oven, until done in the same pan.Sauté means “to danse”and I'd done in a very hot pan using very little oil. Pan frying is done in deep fat at a controlled temperature at or around 350°F.
The researchers concluded that the best way to cook mushrooms while still preserving their nutritional properties is to grill or microwave them, as the fried and boiled mushrooms showed significantly less antioxidant activity.
Oil and butter: For the best and richest flavor, cook the mushrooms in a mixture of olive oil and butter. Mushrooms: A pound of sliced button mushrooms should comfortably serve about four people. Wine: A tablespoon of red cooking wine enhances the flavor of the sautéed mushrooms.
